The great thing about being unemployed is the time off. Time to do projects. Time to get outside. Time to just enjoy ... well ... time. Of course the flip side of that is that you're also broke, or at least on a budget. You can't afford to take that trip to Europe, or that fancy new iGadget, or any of the other things that seem so awesome and fun. Of course that means things will break.
Off the top of my head these are the unexpected problems that have come up this year:
Radiator ($800+)
Grundfos well pump ($850)
1500 AmpHour deep-cycle batteries at 24v (~$7000+)
Generator controller (~$100-500)
String of outlets in kitchen (~A Giant Pain)
Car radio (~$100)
Oh, universe. You're like a big, playful puppy. It's hard to get mad at you, but you DO keep knocking lamps over.
