What's next?

Should I even ask if it can get any worse than it already has? Now the water pump in the car went out.

Something is breaking on every vehicle we own. We can't drive the truck because the heat doesn't work and the windows can't be defrosted. And if it rains there are no wipers. If it is too hot there is no air and you can't roll down the windows.

So we have had to take turns driving the car. The car was not fun because it has had a water leak for years. So there is mold. The water took out the interior lighting system. Then it sat for 2 years with a broken linkage cable that is no longer in production. That is until my 8 month pregnant rear got a craving for pizza and I ended up figuring out a way to make a c clamp work. So the car was a point a to point b car for the past 2 years. Now the air doesn't work in it, the window won't roll back up, the arm that turns the blinker on and turns your lights on bright broke off, a deer ran into the side of it when it lost the game of chicken, the door only opens halfway because of the deer, you cant make a sharp turn to the left without a lot of grinding noise and the possibility of popping the tire because of the deer, and now the water pump broke. We knew it was going to, we were starting to loose the heat and the car was starting to overheat. Do you think that any of those problems would convince JB that it was time, not just a frivolous want, to get a new car? Of course not. Do you think now that even the smallest repair will cost more than the car is worth will convince him? No. How about now we have no family vehicle, we have 2 kids, and we can't be stuck at home? He still is balking at the idea of a new car. Nothing short of a 2x4 is going to make him see the light.

How much do you want to bet it won't pass emissions this Friday? And we have to buy the tag by Saturday.
