This month, I found out the heating element on the dryer broke and the repair buy charges $60 just to come LOOK at the dryer, then we'll add parts and who knows how much for labor. We can buy a new dryer for that! So... off dryer shopping.

But wait.

The sewer backed up into our basement last night. Don't even ask what thats like. Thank God the basement was clean and nothing was on the floor to get ruined. We're currently waiting for the plumber... after we tried to fix it ourselves by renting a snake and pouring main line drain opener into the pipes. Oh yeah, the rental and the liquid cost us $70.. and it didn't work. I don't even want to kow what the plumber will cost.

There goes my new clothes dryer. And my new eyeglasses (which I desperately NEED) and my car needs to be inspected by the end of July... and the bill for the baby hasn't shown up yet.

Can I cry?
Can I cry with you? I'm in the same sinking ship.

I totally relate to the sewage in the basement. That's why I had to move.
Now my car is broken and it would cost way too much to fix, if it could even be fixed. No way can I buy another at this time. So I'm carless with no close friends or family in town. I will have to take the bus to get supplies and kitty litter and food and such.

Doctor bills are stacking up and..... well, I just am trying not to think of everything. It's too depressing!!!

Hope things turn around for you soon.
