And there goes the refund..

We just got our tax refund Friday. It was a pretty decent amount. It's just about gone.

Between paying back some money owed, paying some bills, and splurging a little over the weekend on the kids.. then we got hit with this.

The car broke down on the way to work today. Looks like the Timing belt. Between towing it home (almost $200) and the cost to replace that, the water pump, some cam sensor and whatever else is all in the same area, we're looking at almost $1000.

Oh and Jason is missing a day of work over this.

*cry*

I still need to buy Heather some summer clothes, I desperately need new shoes and I wanted to stock up on some things at BJ's we won't have much left. Oh well, I guess we're at least lucky to have it when it happened, right?
