Why oh Why??

Last month my 4 wheel drive went out in the Trail Blazer, then maybe 2 weeks after that something else broke and is making a horrible sound! Mike googled the symptoms and says it may be a baring (?). So I started driving the car since the Denali needs the heater fixed. I don't mind driving the car, the biggest problem is the double stroller doesn't fit in the trunk.

Last week our Dyson broke. We've had it about 5 years and it has been a pretty good vacuum. Now we (as in Mike) needs to decide what we should get. Should we get another Dyson? An Oreck with a 15 year warranty? I said we should just get a $100 vacuum for the time being since money isn't flowing like wine anymore.

Why does everything break around the time you have to spend money, like Christmas??

Thankfully today the Denali is getting fixed and the kids and I will have room in a vehicle. Not to mention I feel much safer driving in the snow in that tank then in the Saturn. Here's hoping it all works out and we aren't broke!

  1. You know, we got a Roomba, which is probably around the same price as a Dyson, but you don't have to push it. We just vacuum out the filter after it runs and its programmable. Takes 2 minutes to vacuum. Just a thought!

    Also, these things in threes so you should be fine now!
