It never fails

[mslulu]

As soon as we get a couple of nice lump sum injections of cash into our finances, enough to give us a good, safe buffer... first, the water heater dies, followed by a cat with a heart murmur needing lots of tests, followed promptly by the brakes, rotor & bearings on Dave's car requiring immediate attention, and the clutch on my car doing the same. Seriously world... this isn't funny.

Looks like Terri & Dave's "Yes, you can use the downstairs bathroom again!" party is going to be delayed until we can once again afford the plumber.
