Two Fridays ago I realized that October is one of those months where we get 3 paychecks. There was a small amount of rejoicing happening in our house. We could finally take Lilly to the vet and get her teeth cleaned. I know, yes, we really did feel pretty happy about that.
The next day, the Service Engine Soon light comes on in the Pathfinder. I'm thinking the repair will be covered by the Warranty we purchased. Nope. Not only did they want to fix the part that caused the light to come on, they wanted to flush this and that and replace this and that. "How much," we asked. The response was astronomical. "Ummm....just fix the thing that's broken, thanks." We still walked away paying $600.
Lilly had her teeth cleaned and a mass removed yesterday. I put $500 towards that $800 bill. So much for rejoicing. Dumb car.
Last night, a lady needed a little help with some gas. So, I helped. Nothing big, not worth a pat or anything. We were repaid last night by someone breaking in to both the Pathfinder and the Mikles' mini-van and stealing Bernie's video camera and both Marty and I's iPods.
That 3rd paycheck - it's already spent. GGGGRRRRRR.....
I'm not sulking or anything.
