    I felt guilty yesterday when my sister was talking about how her family of four can't afford to take much of a vacation on the budget they have. When she told me what her vacation budget was, I realized I'd spent more than that last year on concerts (if you include travel costs). I'm too ashamed to put that figure here!

    I just prefer not to think about it! I look at it as helping the economy along

    soda.. u should not feel guilty. you can look at it like va...
    but everybody decides how to spend their money...ya know extra money...
    I always thought it was just a decision up to each individual. In our house its times two so everything has to be taken in to consideration(distance to travel and money for each concert aka ticket hotel food drinks etc)
    I dont think you should feel bad..lol you do it times one shes gotta do it times 4...big difference

    you budget your money the way you and your family need it. No reason to feel guilty for that.

    We went on a cruise in March and paid money for the good seats for Eagles tickets in October.

    In July, we are going on a weekend trip with our daughter and her boyfriend. We are paying for it all so we got a cheap motel. It is what we want to do. The tickets will probably be more than the weekend trip but we choose to spend our money like that.

    You should never feel guilty for spending the money you earn on things you choose and enjoy. It stands to reason a family of 4 will not have the same disposable income as a single person would. Have fun and enjoy !! You can't take it with you !!

    Ok, I thought about that enough^^ Here are my confessions:

    * I definitely need to lose weight but in this period my body seems to need sugar ... it's time for me to start a diet >.<

    * I can't stand some arrogant colleagues who never miss their chance to to belittle the work or the skills of other people

    * I'm a bit hypochondriac and also suffer from claustrophobia, so I'm pretty scared everytime I use an elevator or when I have to be in a narrow space ... but I always pretend everything's fine because I don't like to complain about this^^'

    That's all for now



    "Come on baby, don't say maybe ... I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me ..." (Take it easy)
