What else to complain about?

Since everybody else is commenting on the cold snap, I'll add my own thoughts.
Brrrrrr. Also, Yukky. (Which TRex now says when she sees the weather forecast on the TV.) 50s and rainy is definitely sub-optimal. Also, we're going to have to re-light the pilot light on the furnace tonight. (We had it on for a couple of days last week.) And this weekend we need to go acquire a new hat and mittens for TRex and slippers for her to have at home and daycare.
Also, the small crack in the windshield of my car grew a LOT in the last week, after not changing much at all for months. I drove the car to pick up my folks at the airport last Friday and it was as it had been for ages. Moved the carseat back to my car last night because it gets far better gas mileage than the station wagon, and noticed this morning that the crack has more than doubled in size. Why couldn't it have done that BEFORE we spent $400 getting it up to spec for inspection? It's getting big enough that I would feel safer if we got it fixed... but that's another $250. Rargh. If it had done this BEFORE the inspetion, we just would have called it the end of the car's life. (It is almost 20 years old, after all.)
Rargh.
