We have had the worst 4 months, but atleast I will say that they are all things and can be replaced. It all started when we were driving down the highway and a cooler lid flew out of the back of a boat and nailed the front end of our Uplander. Luckily we flagged the driver down it ended up being $1000 damage. Then the washer went and the repair man said it wasn't worth fixing. The dryer followed soon after.($1200 for the set) One day I noticed the pool pump wasn't running. So I take it in and that is fried too ($600 for a new one). Then one day DH was on the computer and it went dead. Accorrding to the Geek squad our mother board crashed and burned ($700 for a new computer). Last saturday I go to vacuum after DH's party and the vacuum is smoking. Once again I take it in and not worth fixing ( thank goodness for Kohls 30% off code new one $150). DH just called something flew up and nailed the windshield of the Uplander and it is cracked. When will it ever end? I know I should be greatful because things could be worse. I just want a break, and with what we have spent we could have gone to Disney.
Sorry that you have had such a rough couple of months. You do have the right attitude - they are all things that can be replaced but it has to be frustrating to feel that something is breaking everytime you turn around!
