I think you should go to church and pray for some miracles to happen in your life. Nobody deserves the problems you continually have. When you're broke and driving a junk vehicle, have not maintained your home, stuff around home, or lawn mower it is inviting trouble to show up regularly. Things break or wear out and then it's an 'emergency'

There must be a couple backyard mechanic buddies who will get your lawnmower running for a case of beer ? I'm no whiz when it comes to mechanical stuff,other than basic mainenance,but if something needs more major work I get it done locally mostly thru barter.

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Dave I do mechanic work on the side. Got a couple push mowers I intended to give to a kid wanting to earn money, or an elderly person. If you're ever passing thru Mississippi, I'll give you one. Never met anyone on Tman in person. Would be cool.
For by grace are you saved by faith, and not of yourselves, it is the gift of God.

Insert profound nonsense here
