A functioning home?

Have you guys ever found yourself just living with something that doesn't work right because you can't afford to fix it, or you can't seem to find the time? We are at that point right now. Only it is not just one thing anymore, it is many. Most of our problems are plumbing. Neither Jason nor I know how to fix those things, so they go without the necessary repairs. I usually am alright with this, but lately(probably because I am pregnant) I have been extremely frustrated with them.
For instance, we have a washer and dryer but the dryer's timer doesn't work, so we have to set a separate timer and watch it carefully. We have forgotten occasionally and found burn marks on our clothes. Our washer we have to stop as it drains because it overflows out the pipes behind it, leaving the floor soaking wet underneath it. This makes laundry a less than pleasant task(more so). I wish I could just start the laundry and get other things done without having to constantly be listening for the washer to drain. Also in the laundry area, our light doesn't work. No, it is not just a light bulb. The entire thing is barely hanging on, and we have just been living with that for a long while. This would be alright except that I can't bend over into the washer very well to see if I have gotten all of the clothes out. That light would help.
Also, our dishwasher leaks all over the floor every time we use it. We stopped using it when we put in our new tile floor in the kitchen(which, by the way, it all cracked now--cheap stuff) and we just have been living without the dishwasher.
Again in the kitchen, one side of our sink doesn't drain right, it just leaks into the cabinet underneath. We have a bucket there, but we just don't use it. So, for the time being I have a large bowl in that side that holds our dishwater for washing dishes.
Our shower in the master bedroom somehow leaks into the front bathroom when we use it, so for almost a year now we have not been using it. That is all fine and dandy when it is just us. However, when David gets here we will be having people stay with us and that would be nice to have for shower schedules.
When we put in the laminate flooring throughout the living room and down the hall, we couldn't find transitions into the bedrooms that fit. So, we have this weird crack from the hall into each room. It makes vacuuming right there really difficult because it pulls up the carpet at the door frame. AND, it is ugly.

I realize that finances are low right now and that all those problems would cost money, but at the same time it is frustrating that so many things don't work at the same time.

So, in honor of all my complaining my Blessing for today is: Having a washer and dryer instead of just going to a laundry mat or washing by hand and line drying. Having the ability to wash dishes by hand(or even having dishes to wash-and having food to put on them). Being able to pay for water so I can shower everyday. Having a home to live in with beds for everyone and a loving family to share it with.
