My new year started out on the wrong side of bed. First, my check engine light in my car came on forcing me to lose a day of work. Then, right in the middle of a snow storm, my main water line to the house failed icing my driveway and making me responsible for the repairs as it was on my side of the meter. That took me ask entire day an cost around $400 to repair. 6 days later, my son's 8 year old cat was dignosed with an inoperable tumor. We had to let her go that same day to prevent any further suffering. Not more than two days later, my central heating and air unit started making noise. The guy who came and looked at it disconnected the breaker and was still getting power to the unit. He pulled the breaker and found it had burned through but never tripped like it was supposed to. Scary! Might have just prevented a potential house fire. Replaced the breaker and fixed the noise, then had to pull the impeller for the blower out to clean it because it was caked with dirt and out of balance. That took most of the day.
All this happened in less than two weeks. If there is a bright side to this year.... it would be that all my misfortune is out the way and the rest of the year should be outstanding!
