Week 17 car

Basically, Atzva is in the second third of her pregnant and supposed to be easier than the first third. But now she suffer from all the problems that she haven’t suffered from in the first third.

Well sold our first car car. In one hand we didn’t need it anymore: Atzva got the best one we could get from the Soil consultant office she’s working in, I am using the train to get to work and there is no need for another one. We bought it only two years ago: first hand, taking care in an official garage, low kilometer measure and after an accident. The rule never buy it after an accident, specially those that has a problem in the vehicle frame, that might be a safety issue.

We bought one with an hit in the frame  car. It was a small hit in the back of the car and after checking with our cousin Mandel, we understood that isn’t a safety problem. Mendel works in a garage and he helped us finding the car. We paid less for it because of that problem. We didn’t think that it will be a problem when will sell it, because we didn’t think of selling it. I thought we’ll kill it, just like my parents does – the car end its life when a donkey takes it to the near Arab village or a poor student pays 2000 NIS on it.

But we did sell it, and it didn’t take long. How? the same why we bought it – with the help of Mendel and his workmates. Another garage worker look at the car, understand it isn’t a big problem and decided to buy it for his family car.

I thought I will be nostalgic about that car, but apparently I felt nothing for it. It was more Atzva car than my car. We bought for her in the first place and she used it. And now she got the best car from work. She doesn’t have a Lamborghini nor a Ferrari. But it is a car we don’t have to pay gas, insurance, maintenance, we didn’t have to buy it and we won’t have to sell it. That is why it is the best car
