Had this happened at some point earlier in our history, we most likely wouldn't have. It still smarts to have to fork it over, though.

The things are monsters and will out live you -- heck, lugnut may be driving it when he turns 16! I am sorry to hear about the crown. W has pnemonia (sp). It was a freak thing that just sort of creeped up the past day or so. She is sleeping now. We have been down this road before so out comes the vaporizer and push the triamedic. She has come to associate sickness with me trying to give her medicine -- which by the way tastes pretty damn good compared to the crap I have taken in recent memory. It seems, as an axiom to life, that when you have money it seems to find some void to fill. This is what has happened in this first quarter or our fiscal year. We have been running with a pretty nice surplus and than all of the sudden crap happens. Wife and I sat down and pushed the numbers around and it just does not make sense -- that sucking noise -- it appears to be my bank account/checkbook. We close on the 23rd for our house. (more sucking noises). It is a good house -- needs some TLC -- mainly cosmetic. Old, dated, but she looks like she's got potential. Nothing major wrong with her. Just some bad taste in decor. I bit a dentist once. Not on purpose. She told me to bite down and I did -- on her hand. Her fault -- not mine. =) Although you are out the money, you can’t really go wrong putting a new clutch in on a toyota.

What a nice feeling." Then something happens that requires said money that was set aside. Then, no more money set aside. I always try to look on the bright side of things. What a good feeling to be able to pay for something you need (tooth, clutch, or recently, getting a leak in the roof fixed). And of course, the alternative is NOT being able to pay....a very bad feeling. It has happened to me more than once, I say to myself “self, you have a little bit of money set aside.

Congratulations on having the discipline to carry an umbrella! I feel your pain, though; we got word yesterday that the engine is blown on the Mazda. When it rains, it pours.
