October is Becoming a Horror Show

Happy Halloween Appliances...bwa ha ha!
At least for mechanical objects.....like our car, and now our refrigerator.  Both died in the last 4 days.  Add to that the dryer that came apart last fall, got put back together and then came apart again and is now sitting idle and there seems to be a vortex of mechanical death swirling around our house. 

At least we did have to good fortune to keep the refrigerator from the house on Merida Street.  It was extra storage for milk and such but now it is the the star of the show.  Thank God for small miracles.

The car on the other hand is scaring the pants off of me.  There is no backup for that and after the heatwave knocking out our savings and the health insurance for the kids cutting the income we have just about bupkiss to pay for the repairs.

If you need me I will most likely be cowering in the closet with some cookies and amaretto left over from Guardian of the Tor  2010.......crap I'm out of cookies.

Keep those mechanical nightmares over there as they have already done enough damage over there this summer. If you can manage to come over there the girls are planning to make chocolate chip cookies for the garage sale on Saturday. You are welcome to taste test with us as long as you keep the mechanical spruces at home.

Sorry about the bad October. If bad luck comes in threes , you've gotten over the worst!
Maybe you should buy a lottery ticket now.............
