BEEP BEEP!

Our New Dream CAR!!!

All of us as Scorpio arrived!

The car of our dreams arrived today!!!  Thank you all for making our dream come true!!

I've been shopping and researching all month and I finally decided on this Mahindra Scorpio. 4 wheel drive. Amazing Engine.  Sits 8-10 children and overall ROCKS.  

So then I went down to Nepal Ganj to place my order last week.  In the morning we called the dealership in Kathmandu and they said the car was available.  Then we went to lunch and came back and guess what??? Someone else had put an order in.  So I hopped on a plane, made the flight with 2 minutes to spare and rushed to Kathmandu to put our deposit down.  I am a little cut throat when it comes to business.  (I get it from my mama.)  But then things got even more dramatic.  The import of vehicles has stopped in Nepal temporarily while the new constitution and laws are being written up and they are about to increase the import tax so THIS WAS THE LAST AND FINAL SCORPIO FOR SALE in Nepal!!! After some serious business talk, THEY GAVE us Scorpio, because of you all my dream readers we had cash to put down right then and there!

That's my car story.  We are blessed and feeling thankful.  I'm so happy I could burst.  Sweeeeeet dreams.

how fantastic! The universe is definitely looking out for you!!! YAY!!!

This is an infinitely better surprise. Of coure it' s a Scorpio, what else could it be? You may have inherited some of that business determination from your mother but it is your own Scorpio DNA. that makes you tick. Scorpios achieve things that no-one else believe possible. It's called Willpower. And it makes us seem rather crazy, but that' s what makes them so interesting. The children are in good, straightforward, honest hands.

So two Scorpios are now running the show? Best news I've heard in a long time.

That is AWESOME!! So happy for you and the children. i truly believe that God is blessing you because of what you have and will do!!
Can't wait to hear of all you do with your new transportation!
