Bad luck comes in 3's, right? gif edition

So, I'm having a run of bad luck, which I suppose is relative, but for me...it's been bad.
My nanny texts me yesterday at work and says my dog, Pepper, bit her son (Jared is 1); I guess he was getting too close for her comfort so she bit him by his ear. He has mild teeth marks, no real bleeding; but I am upset because Pepper NEVER bites unless she is afraid.
So I get home after work, and she says she has to talk with me...um, ok...she says she is moving back to California because her husband had an affair and her new job starts June 16th! (The date is 6/4.)
She apologizes and says she is going to miss Willa and seeing her grown up.
So, now I need new childcare! Well, we saw a few day cares before we settled on a nanny and figure we will use the one we liked the best...this still gives me anxiety because they will be all new people and new surroundings for Willa.
^^this is me BTW....so I start drinking some wine.
So I'm on my way to work, and I get a large bolt with metal pieces flying out of it stuck in my tire, and I have no flat tires, sooooo, I do not have a spare. There are scratches all over my paint, and I need a tow to a tire place. My husband shows up, I get towed, we are discussing what tire we want to get for the car. (BTW I have a brand new 2013 BMW...Yuma does not support such luxury). And the guy says he can ONLY sell us 4 tires due to current wear on the old tires, drive train, axels...yada yada.
My husband calls BMW, and they say, "uh, what?" No. We put one tire on all the time, your vehicle is smart and will shut of it's all wheel drive should it start to jack with your drive train.
The tire place WILL NOT do it because it will be their liability if something goes bad. Sooooo, instead they will act like we just brought the wheel in and will give us a tire to go.
Whatever. I have my car, my nanny quit, I need new childcare, Pepper is acting a fool...bad luck comes in 3's, right? So, I'm good to go now, right? RIGHT?
