As if I needed any more problems in my life I now have a hole in my guest bathroom ceiling because of a leak in the tub from the bathroom above. I don't even want to think about what this is going to cost to fix but hopefully I can get my brother in-law out to my place soon so he can help out. It's always good to have relatives that can help with something like that (he's also good with cars but the problem with the cooling system was to much to ask a family member to help out with) but it can be a pain not knowing when you'll get the help. How long to I wait before asking again?

So much for a $300 repair bill. I knew the water pump was going bad (which would of cost around $450 to replace) but the radiator also had a crack in it and the hoses in between were getting soft. That's not to unexpected since the truck has over 180K miles on it. After all was said and done the bill came to almost $1000. I need to start playing the lottery but with this kind of luck I would just be throwing money down the drain.
