Beginning of the month I had to pay (approximately) $700 for a bill the medical insurance wouldn’t cover. Wednesday, I had to pay $700 for a dental bill because insurance said my wife didn’t need the type of anesthesia we got her (the kind where you wake up later and find out it’s over). Yesterday, while getting the oil changed on the car, I was told the axle boot is leaking grease, and they would replace the whole axle for $1100; I’m taking it to the dealership next Wednesday because it should be under warranty, though the guy at the dealership wouldn’t exactly promise it. And this morning, I woke up to the sewer backing up, and the plumber found roots in the pipe at a part of the pipe approximately 7 feet under ground, and fixing this will cost $8200, which I don’t have, but at least they have a payment plan.
