Had to have some septic line replaced a few weeks back.
I had the cash to pay it.
Paid some medical bills. Glad I have good insurance.
House AC quit about three weeks go. Spent nearly a week with it being 90+ at times in the house. But the new system is installed and cooling quite well. Quieter and more efficient.
Wiped out my emergency savings, but that’s what it is there for.
In addition to the lung issues, I’ve recently found out I have just a touch of prostate cancer. But we have a plan.
Again, glad I’ve good insurance.
I’ve made some bad choices in life. But I’ve made enough good ones to have the wherewithal to make it through the hard times.
Next calf crop should replace most of the emergency fund.
We are as tough as we need to be.
Life ain’t so bad.
It’s all gonna be ok.

Thanks for the inspiration.

Good luck with it. Your attitude's already got it licked.

God Bless Hudr, salt of the earth Americans like yourself is what makes this country great.

When I think of how bad thing are for me at times, that's when I realize other people have it worse off than me. I am not saying that's you, just in general.
I wish more people had your attitude!

I used to think whenever my car needed unexpected repairs that the universe was against me. My wife made me snap back to reality by asking, “Isn’t that why you have an emergency savings for?”
