Yay! I think we have a car...

"Now some folks say it's too big
And uses too much gas
Some folks say it's too old
And that it goes too fast
But my love is bigger than a Honda
It's bigger than a Subaru
Hey man there's only one thing
And one car that will do
Anyway we don't have to drive it
Honey we can park it out in back..." --Bruce Springsteen

Barring bad news from the mechanic, we'll soon be the owner of a bronze 1993 Volvo 960 wagon, with 90,000 miles on it. It's not a glamorous car, but it's big, it works well, it's comfortable, and it can fit dog and Mac and multiple Mac-friends (or our friends) w/o blinking, and we don't have to worry about getting it dirty.

Also, our stuff arrived today. Much to unpack. Much, much to unpack.

Congratulations on the Volvo. I know a car will be one thing you'll be very glad to cross off the to do list, and it sounds like a good choice!
