$$$Money$$$

You know money is all that life seems to be about. We start at a young age learning everything we can. We go to school to learn so that way we can go to college to learn oh but what your really learning for is so you can get that job/career so what can you do? oh make money! Why do we make money? Well for one so we can sustain our life by buying food and having a place to live. We then have bills of all kinds from electricity to car payments to health insurance. So we work so hard to have pay all these bills but then we have no more money. So what do we do in turn we work harder longer hours so we can make more money. But what actually happens is once we do the longer hours we spend that money even faster or pay more bills. It becomes this never ending circle. You know when we are kids all we can dream about is becoming an adult but as children we can not grasp the enormity of what being an "adult" really means.

Now you may be wondering why I am writing about this and its because here we are in the holiday season getting ready to celebrate Christmas. Which in our modern culture isn't about Christ being born anymore it's about buying objects for those we love and the more the better. We are that family that lives paycheck to paycheck even though my husband works his butt off every day just so we can pay all of those mary-go-round bills and have food on the table. I wish I could help him more. But right now being home with our children is financially the best for us. Childcare is so expensive why work?! I guess really I'm just frustrated with the way everything is. We are always told from a young age that nothing is fair and man is that an understatement. Well at least I can vent for FREE!
