<p>I wish I * had something* to pawn.
Our refrigerator just died *after * we went to the grocery store, the radiator in my car has to be replaced and the keyboard wore out on my laptop.
I think I can fix the keyboard, but the other things are beyond that.
( we are using a camping ice chest- now when I buy ice cream I have to eat it all!)</p>
