RIP Gypsy and Meet Pearl the Hyundai Tuscon

So Momma was on her way home and a red truck was coming across all lanes of traffic blind.  He pulled out in front of a school bus and momma t boned him.  This is from Miss M.  She arrived on scene just as momma was hauled off in the ambulance.  


See a man they call two chains (that momma works with) was right behind momma as they leave at the same time and happen to be going the same way since momma was getting groceries.  He flipped his soul around and parked behind taco bell and was a comfort in a moment of terror for momma.  Seeing a familiar face grounded her.  


Once at the hospital momma had several panic attacks.  They ran tests, assessed her pain, and got her logged into the system. 


They got chest and hand xrays as those were her most hurt body parts.  No broken bones just soft tissue swelling and bruising from the airbags.  

There was hilarity that ensued when Doggy Nanny Miss M and her boyfriend Mr R tried to extract us from the house.  Momma didn't know if she would be in the hospital long so she asked for us to be taken to daycare.  another post on that soon.  But Doggy nanny picked momma up after the hospital released her and drove us all home.  It was weird not having a car.  We stayed at the house for 2 solid weeks with no bye bye rides. 


In the following days momma went to the junk yard...


to retrieve her and our belongings.  Our house was over filled to say the least. 




Poor Gypsy looks plain sad.  

Soon after momma got a rental to get to and from work. 


It was super fancy.


So many buttons and bobs.

It was a gray Nissian Rogue.  

The biggest bell and whistle was the auto up and down tailgate.  When you have leashes, pups, groceries and other human accessories its little things that mean the most. 

We got to go one time in the rogue.  But not a fan as it didn't have any beds or blankies for us.  


Simply will not due for royalty like us!

Like we are short how are we supposed to bork at squirrels!?!?


I have to stand up to do so and barely reach.

Weeks later after insurance found momma not at fault and got her the settlement sent out she went car shopping.  It was a long day she said.  She went to one dealership but couldn't get a good deal and the car just didn't fit her needs.  Then she decided to make a drive across town to a new dealership.  The first car she tried didn't work....had the bells and whistles but just not her vibe.  Then the sales person suggested a Hyundai and momma said the moment she sat in the drivers seat it was like goldilocks....it was JUST right!  Room, bells, whistles, everything you could imagine.  Then began the process of negotiation.  She was worried but after about an hour and a half she got the payment where it needed to be.  She called Doggy Nanny and Uncle M to come check it out to make sure it was all on the up and up and they agreed.  So momma signed the paperwork and well thats how....


...Pearl became part of the family.

She is "Pearl Black" and has multicolor glitter when the sun shines on her.  There were "27's" all over the place momma knew it was a sign from grandma Cindy in heaven.  Then on the pick up day (she had to return the rental before getting pearl home) there were a pack of geese in the parking lot.  Momma always called Lucy....Lucy-Goose.  Another sign in her eyes.  


After getting the car picked up her first stop was to walmart.  She got us a pretty sheet set for the backset.  No more mattress and messy blankies we are going to be stylin. 

Here is the backseat all set up. 


Simply wonderful daring!

So far we both love the car!


obligatory new car photo.



Momma brought out a diaper bag with car essentials and a outward hound pack with doggie supplies. 

Bowl, leashes, extra harnesses.  One item added later was a slip leash not photographed here.  

Seems like mommas gonna be a while.  Imma lay down for a nap.

We decorated the key fob pink.

Added a dog mom rearview mirror charm.


Poppy says "Squirrel!"

Our first stop on the maiden voyage is Bahama bucks.  We got our pup cups dont worry. 

Pop testing out the pillow.  Nice and Comfies.

There is so much...

...Room!

It has wireless apple car play which we turned pink.  

We got a custom pink plate frame. 

Momma didn't have the right tools but...

...Knew Mr Mister would.  Even though they aren't dating anymore they still help eachother out. 

We can turn the rearview camera on on demand so we could see him in action.  Thanks Mr Mister.

CAT!

Then before dozing off we made this for mommas desktop at work.  Its officially the Crestie Crew Mobile.
