Cars....the ultimate money pit!

Have had hubby home since last wednesday,has been  nice..although we do spend more when he is home....now onto the car..its been tempermental lately, so we took it to the auto electrician today, and just got the call to say its going to be $575, for a new starter motor to be put in...arrrrrrrr..has to be done, by geeze, how do ya get ahead when faced with these little unexpected things....and thats not all that needs to be done to the car to get it running just right...over the next couple of months its going to need, tyres, brakes, cv joint replacement...its just never ending....going to have to tighten up in other areas to cover it all....on a brighter not my girls front tooth has finally broken through the gum(probably not quite in the spot its suppose to), but it has done it...its been trying for about 8 months now...she banged her mouth as toddler and killled the front tooth, about 9months ago it developed an infection and we had it pulled so there was scar tissue in the gum which made it hard for the tooth to try and come out...fingers crossed the tooth settles into where it should be, or il start saving now for braces...
