It has been expensive.
On New Year's Eve, my Mini Cooper started overheating when my husband was gassing it up before our drive down to Ocean City, MD to spend New Year's weekend with friends. Because his car is in even worse shape, we rented a car. $
When we returned on Sunday, we discovered that our deerhound wasn't well, and so we kept the car for another day -- $ -- so I could take him to the vet on Monday. $
Took the Mini in for service on Tuesday and got it back on Wednesday. $$
Same day, paid a man to tell me that our refrigerator was shot. $
While he was pulling the fridge away from the wall to check it out, he gouged our new Pergo floor. $$$
Bought a new refrigerator. $$
It should get delivered tomorrow, if the snow isn't bad, but since I already had to throw out most of the contents of the freezer, it doesn't really matter much if it's postponed until Monday. $
Got up this morning and found a note from Michael saying not to use the toaster oven, because it had caught on fire when he was toasting his bagel. $
A little afraid to see what tomorrow brings. Hopefully a new fridge and nothing more.
