The last days before delivery

Okay folks, is it just me or does everyone feel like exploding just before your smart arrived?

What makes it worse is I have off this week from work so despite staying busy I still find my mind wondering back to my smart car.

Is the insanity really worth it? I don't remember feeling this anxious since I was just a kid...

Don't play with your new smart too much or you might go blind...

FINALLY THE DAY IS HERE!!!

I got the call last night my smart had arrived and it was time for delivery! I am picking up my baby this morning at 10am. They are even installing my new Wolo horn for me. (I begged because I wanted it done right, since they are the experts.)

I took the next two days off just to enjoy my new smart!!!!

Thanks everyone for all the encouragement and support - these last few days have been rough. I couldn't have done it without your help.
