[Sanssouci]

2016 was pretty bad for me too.

In February my partner's mother died. I was not close with her, but my partner was, so it was hard on him.

We had to pay a little over $2,000 for her cremation.

Less than a week after she died, he was in the emergency room with intense abdominal pain. We found out that he's full of kidney stones. We've had to go to the urologist around 10 times over the past year, and we've probably spent around $1,000 there, and they still haven't done anything at all. They just keep having him pee in jugs.

Then I had to clean my partner's mother's room out, so that was a lot of work.

Then I broke my finger, so that was another few hundred dollars.

Then we took two of our dogs to the vet for routine checkups and shots, which came to $300. One of them ended up needing $775 surgery one week later. Then a cat had a hematoma in his ear one week later, so we had to go back in for another $100, which didn't even take care of the hematoma at all.

Then Trump.
