Hippi,
It sounds like it has hit you all at once too. No clothes dryer!!!! Ouch. I could live without my refrigerator easier than I could without my dryer. I hope your dishwasher doesn't go out too. And now your van. You're right that when it rains it pours.
We received some good news today however. The water removal guy that helped with our flooding problem wants to buy one of my rent houses that was just vacated. That means I don't have to have it painted, repaired, etc. and I don't have to go through the hassle of trying to rent it. It really is good news for me.
I've had a busy day today but am feeling a little better than I did yesterday. I hope you are too. And I hope your dishwasher doesn't break before you sell your house.
Take care,
Pat
