Also, taking a bit of licence with the theme, not a big thing physically, but a big thing to me has been getting a new (to me) car. Due to the financial disaster my life has been the past couple of years, my credit rating was a mess, but was able to get finance (at extortionate rates and borderline illegal charges). Lots of great memories tied up with the old car - camping trips, fishing, family outings, driving on the beach and through awesome bushland, teaching middle daughter to drive. Some bad memories too, as this was 'our' car. Onward and upward though and a decent, reliable car is a big part of me rebuilding a new life for myself and my kids.

What model Ford is that? I don't think that they sell that here.

It's a Ford Territory. Designed and built in Australia and (as far as I know) only available here and in New Zealand. Mine is a 2009 SYII TS AWD 7-seat.
