400 bones

ways i'd rather spend $400...
- a dyson vacuum
- a new tv for our room
- a weekend get-away
- maybe even a wii

ways i'd rather not spend $400...
- on two new tires and a wheel alignment on our car after my husband inadvertently ran off the road and hit the median full force, causing both tires to blow out immediately on impact.

yeah, i can think of much better ways to spend that kind of money.

but spending money on car repairs is all the rage right now. we went out and dropped $1200 on jake's front bumper last month just to fit in with the crowd.

our friends have a dyson vacuum... they are not that impressed with it. glad they spent the money to figure that one out for me.

but the wii... that would be a much better purchase than tires.

sorry for your bummer deal.

I hate spending money on my car...I am so sorry! but I love my dyson...every year for 5 years I bought a new vac but i have had my D for two and we are going strong!

and the WII totally worth the money...how did the hubby runoff the road?

a bug flew into our car and we were trying to get it out... it landed on bryce's arm, so he was slowly trying to put down the window before it flew off. apparently, his eyes were off the road for too long and we slammed into the median.

it scared the pants off of me. and ava.

we were all fine though. bryce luckily swerved back onto the road before we hit any poles or bushes. and thankfully, there was no major damage done to the car.

but i still wanted to strangle my husband.
