I echo jpkittie when...There has to be some balance. I echo jpkittie when I realize that I could pay down a lot of debt if I gave up a few things, but I choose not to...some for convenience...some for selfishness. We splurged yesterday on a family outing to the city. I add up the numbers and think what I could do with that, but then, the boys and I had a lot of laughs and smiles.Joliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05031816661748376856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6240507142558675841.post-81614429870140769572010-02-15T11:03:13.937-08:002010-02-15T11:03:13.937-08:00Jp...it least you are honest! :)Jp...it least you are honest! :)D and Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05365059301918261286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6240507142558675841.post-40702408769848708912010-02-15T04:31:48.850-08:002010-02-15T04:31:48.850-08:00I think you are righ on the balance...

I think I could kick the debt in a year or two if we would give up everything, but we are selfish & don't want to give up everything!!!!jpkittiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16042638265207370788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6240507142558675841.post-67589888091365774322010-02-14T15:46:20.388-08:002010-02-14T15:46:20.388-08:00I agree with you. There are some things I question...I agree with you. There are some things I question and ask how would it help us to get rid of them? But, truth be told if we did that we would feel so down and spend that money elsewhere...I just know it. I always feel like we get a raise and it's "spent" before we even get it! Like, my son with pre-school - he missed the cut off and really needed the interaction as well as the extra speech help so instead of going to the school district for $60 we are paying $189 a month at the Y for Pre-School - this to me is necessary. But, an added expense I can't wait to go away in May! <br /><br />we have always pondered the extra job but Hubby is so tired when he gets home physically it wouldn't work. The up side is as soon as all this snow melts he can work overtime and get an extra $400+ a week! So, that is what we are holding out on. I hope our tax return is descent so we can kick the debt good and get some much needed encouragement!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
