New Year Silver Linings

This is me.

So far, our new year hasn’t started out so great, but I’m going to try to see the silver linings:
Negative- The Taur-Dogg (our Taurus) failed the VA safety inspection and it’s going to be $1000 to fix.
Silver Lining- The mechanic was very nice and told us we could order a tail light online for $20 instead of the $250 they sold it for. So now, Taur-Dogg will only be $800.
Negative- Poor E threw his back out and can’t walk.
Silver Lining - We got seen relatively quickly at the ER and then he was able to get a MRI yesterday the same day we called.
Negative- I want to buy a house, but our landlord won’t let us out of our lease- we need to find a sub-leasee.
Silver Lining –We can save more money and there will be more places on the market when our lease is up in July.
I made several New Year’s Resolutions, but the big one is to be more fiscally responsible. There is a multi pronged approach for us achieve this (like track our weekly grocery expenses), but between up foreseen medical and auto bills, we are not doing so well!
Oh, but I did win a Perfectly Posh gift card on one of my favorite blogs: Dont Quote the Raven.
More to come since I am waaaay behind on blogging.
