had to have this discussion last night. We are so tight on money right now and he can't seem to figure it out. He thinks I'm buying frivolous stuff or some such nonsense. Well, hello, gas prices and groceries are killing us (not to mention my son's $500/month medical bills). Granted, we are not going to starve, we live in a big house and won't be forced to foreclose, and will indeed manage. We will have to cut out some extras, however and/or I will need to get a part time job. Not the end of the world and it makes me feel bad when we start the pity party because of all the people who are hanging on by a thread - or who's thread has just snapped.
