Flow Masters=ear plugs

My husband bought himself a jeep cherokee about 3 weeks ago now. I am so happy that he enjoys it. He has so much fun planning what he is going to do to it. He has already done something pretty big to it. He has added flow masters. its a muffler...i guess?
All I know is that it is very loud. It is so loud that it scares big momma (my mini van). It sets my alarm off when it is running in the drive way. Poor big momma. She is to old to have the whipper snapper beside her...bless her autoheart!


Well, About a week ago, my cousin Alicia was in town. We decided we were going to meet at the local tea room for lunch. Mark said he would "watch" the kids (they were napping) :)
I decided I would dress up, I even curled my hair, and wore my pearls.

I had no idea that while Mark was out that morning, he had flow masters put on the jeep.

So, as I was headed out to big momma, Mark said I should drive the jeep, I could feel "young again". since when am I old? Anyway....
I said ok, He said to be prepared, I would turn heads by driving it. HA! so now I'm old AND need a jeep to turn heads!
back to the story...
I got into it, started it and almost had a heart attack! That thing is so loud!! I went on my way. I thought I might get pulled over by the police, because I was disturbing the peace! I parked as far from the restaurant as I could. flow masters and tea rooms do not mix! Had a wonderful lunch and then hopped back in the noisy beast to head home.

No one checked out the old woman in the jeep until I got to the last stop light. The 60ish year old man in the truck next to me smiled, his ever so sexy toothless smile at me.
I have never been so happy for a red light to turn green! I got home and got out, gave my boring old mini van a pat as I walked into the house.

I have not driven the noisy beast since. I can not handle the noise or the "attention" I get from driving it! :)
