The year of living expensively

On Monday, M bought a 2006 Mazda Tribute. It's pretty damn sweet. Now we both have 2006 cars. I have christened the new car Bruce, much to M's chagrin. He just looks like a Bruce to me.

This has been an expensive year in the M and C household. We've bought two new cars, are going on a major vaca in the next few months, put up a new fence, replanted the front lawn and today are having the tree chopped down. But sometimes you need to fork over the dough. Maybe 2007 will be the year of cheaping out.
