10 year timer

Ten years is the mark -the mark when half of your appliances decide to die the same week. We've been in this house 10.5 years - in the last 10 days the water heater imploded, the dryer fried, the dishwasher is circling the drain and joe walks in and says the lawn mower seized up! He looked up mowers & headed back out the door with Henry, they've been gone almost 3 hours, I hope henry didn't convince joe to get that riding mower he's (henry) been eying. 8.)

On Monday we have to have $30 for pictures, $10 for dues & $5 for supplies on top of the roughly $80 buying consumable supplies & his backpack. The boy is due for a haircut & will need new boots by the end of September, it just doesn't ease up. I know he'll have a pile of fundraiser flyers in his bag the first week.
