    Angry First my car now my tooth

    About a month ago my last car was acting funny. Took it in and it was the enginge. Would of cost me $4,000 to buy a used engine and no guarantee. So, had to get another car! Here I had just paid my other car off a year early. Than I bit into a carmel and part of my molar broke. So this cost me $226. This is only the temporary. Waiting tell Jan. to get the rest done. Have used up all my benefits this year for my dental. I'm telling you with the cost of everything going up and on a TIGHT budget as it is, this is really killing me. Just more or less venting! It just seems as if you see the end of the tunnel with debt it wants to bite back.

    (((HUGS))) I do hope that things get better. ANd do I ever know what you mean. I was so down on Friday, I was almost in tears. here I have been busting my behind to pay off some debt and then my car decided to die on me the week before last..I have to get a new alternator, so I started driving the other vehicle and then Friday the battery died so that mean spending $60 on a new battery for it. Sometimes it just seems like when we really buckle down and try to reach a goal, something always comes up.
