Eller, is considerably bruised and battered up today as the result of at- tempting to navigate a porch railing in his sleep. Young Eller has been sleeping on an open porch on the second story of their residence. Last night he went to bed at the usual time and about 10:30 o'clock his parents found him lying on the ground below the porch with his face and one hand and one foot badly bruised and lac- erated. He fell about 12 feet. No explanation of the accident can be given other than the fact that he must have been walking in his sleep. — July 17, 1915 100 YEARS AGO... Young boy gets painful injury walking in sleep Jennifer Finnegan Over the last short while, I've received amazing feed- back on my previous pieces about the path on which I find myself in re- building my faith and prosperity. I'm touched and humbled because, al- though I always aim to be transparent, these last few have been extremely per- sonal and I was nervous about sharing. Your feed- back has been reassuring; moreover I'm amazed by how many people feel the same. This column brings that journey to a stop sign — at least as far as things stand today. Thank you for coming along. With that as backstory, we have two cars. One was a 1997 Pontiac Sun- fire; a low-end economy car with 122,000 miles. Peo- ple oft-times are shocked when they hear I possess an 18-year-old auto with so few miles. They are thrown further back on their heels upon learning our second car, which is 19 years old, has merely 75,000 miles. (I joke that it still has its orig- inal tires.) What can I say? We walk a lot, and as you might remember, until a car hit me a few years ago, I rode my bike a great deal. In addition, we are loyal, not quick to discard that which is still usable. Yet, driving to clients in a peeling grunting, clank- ing, banging automo- bile which wheezed and creaked more than a di- lapidated, broken-down, gasping pipe organ not only gave me great con- cerns about safety, but — as vain as it may sound — didn't fit the image I want to portray. Bottom line was I needed (and wanted) a new car. It was time. The problem is that in the last almost-two decades, the technology of cars has im- proved significantly. Yet, despite that, no one has fig- ured out how to remove car payments. Sigh… Putting forth my trusty mantra, "I live in a state of constant abundance;" I set forth on what would be- come a three-month jour- ney to find the "perfect car." My "must haves" in- cluded late model, low mileage, minimum carbon footprint (hybrid or elec- tric preferable), full safety package, comfortable ride, and a killer sound system. My "it-would-be-nice-to- have" file contained moon roof, navigation system, and a blue exterior. I im- mersed myself in "Car Buy- ing 101," visiting websites of every stripe, poring over reports, listening to car- talk shows and consumer advocates, and watching and studying advertise- ments. By the time I was getting close, I kid you not; I knew warranties, mile- age, even wheelbases and exterior lengths of several preferred models. My ideal model, a Ford Fusion Hy- brid, was out of my range but eventually I landed on something similar and was discussing money. "What kinds of payment options are there?" I asked. "Our finance manager is out right now," said the salesperson. "Can I get that to you tomorrow?" Having heard nothing in two days, I followed up. He apologized, again assuring "tomorrow." I waited. One day. Two days. Three days. Crickets. Frustrated in trying to "make it happen," I men- tally released the car and accepted it wasn't sup- posed to be. Hopping in my beater, I clanged and banged down the highway to another dealer who sold similar models. As Kurt, the salesperson, got to know me, he said, "I know you came here look- ing for a certain model, but I think I have your perfect car. However, it's from an- other manufacturer. Can I show it to you?" I drove home in late model, low mileage, full safety package equipped, Ford Fusion Hybrid with a killer sound system, moon roof, and navigation sys- tem in the price range I planned. By the way, it's blue. More than buying a car — and I hope this doesn't sound silly — it almost feels like this vehicle, the one I imagined on the be- ginning of this process, was "sent" to me, validat- ing again my beliefs that if we make clear our in- tention and pursue it, that which we want and need makes itself known. All we must do is believe and start the engine. Scott"Q"Marcusis a nationally known weight loss expert for baby boomers and the CRP (Chief Recovering Perfectionist) of www. ThisTimeIMeanIt.com.
