I never thought I’d say this….
…but maybe our house is cursed?? Although it’s beautiful and we love it, isn’t it strange how many bad things have happened since we closed on it? First no gas meter, then no water, then our refrigerator breaks, then I get in a car accident, and now this- Eric’s car has finally reached it’s last leg! It was acting very funny on Monday so Eric took it to Howdy honday (yes, that’s actually our local dealership’s name!) They said it was going to cost $700 to fix all of the immediate problems, and another $1200 to get it where it needs to be. Well, we have already spent $1500 on it in the past two months, so we decided to throw in the towel. It was turning into a pit and we did not want to throw any more money at it. Luckily we found someone to buy it and already have lead on a new car. My dad can get us a an amazing deal on a Kia SUV, so you’ll be happy to know that when you come to visit, you won’t have to smoosh into the backseat of my 2-door Honda anymore!
Eventhough we have had a run of bad luck, we are still so happy with our life and the decisions we have made. Plus, as my Granny always used to say: “You just gotta laugh!”
