The high chair wasn't a big deal except that it is a visual memory jogger of the toddler years with Nathan and Hyrum. I was glad to see it go to someone who really wanted it and was excited to find it after watching for this specific highchair. The girl's who picked it up reminded me of me when I took my coupon in and purchased it on sale after watching and waiting for months.
The Yukon was a big deal. Not emotionally, but financially. It was a good experience to let Shawn and Kellie use it for the entire month of July. I emotionally detached from it then and we could see that it was totally possible to live without it. Financially it is a blessing to have it gone. That means that this month (and every month after) I don't have to come up with the payment, gas or insurance money. It was nice having it while we did but even nicer to have that weight gone from the budget!
We are really working to pay down our debt and save for whatever the future is going to throw at us. It feels good to work together with LeRoy on this and to have our first attempt at selling/reducing the debt work out so quickly.
I was happy that the family who bought the Yukon were excited about it. They drove it and were a little undecided. After taking it to a mechanic in town who confirmed that it was in great condition, it was a done deal. I felt so good about the purchase because I knew we weren't hiding anything from them and they really were getting a great vehicle. To do a cash purchase of that size was a little daunting but it felt great to walk into the bank and pay it off outright and sign the title over to them.
Now I'm looking around me wondering what else I can sell.
