He was more upset than mad. However, I had tried to talk to him many times before and nothing ever changed. I grew very tired of being yelled at for things that didn't even rise to the level of a raised voice, much less yelling.

G-rex, what year is the Galaxie?
It's a 1965 two door hardtop. I've had it since I was 17. Learned everything I know about working on a car on that one with my dad. Needless to say, it's not for sale.

She's a beaut! My dad's was that funky blue/green color.

She looks to be in great shape, glad to see someone loves her.

Nope.. I have the kids (and only 2.. 3 if you count the Ducati ), but thankfully my ex-husband and I are both still working... not as though we could just up and quit our jobs anyway. I think I put in my 2 week notice to the Army halfway through my last deployment, and they still haven't gotten back to me..

Nevermind that I re-upped in 07 for another 6 years.

congrats on the walk. good luck with the hunt. OMG that car is gorgeous!!!

seriously, lots of demand for civil engineers so you should do well. I don't know if I would have walked without a place to go to though. Haven't done that since I was in my 20's.
