Grounded

It's Dave's birthday, and we're stuck at home! Sidelined by a radiator replacement on our van. Last year, such an expense so close to Christmas would have been a financial crisis. This year, thanks to our emergency fund and careful budgeting, it's just a disruption to my well thought out plans for the day. At least we have cake!

Happy Birthday to Dave!!

I am so happy you have peace of mind over such a huge expense. What a wonderful blessing. Financial "freedom" is so wonderful. Hate that you had to replace the ole radiator though.

And, YAY for emergency funds indeed.
