Hmmmm
I was sitting her this morning sick BTW :( and thinking man I wish I could get this , get that, go shopping here... ya know blah blah blah. I am always telling myself and my kids especially to be so grateful for all that we have god has blessed us so much and we are all so very lucky. So why do I always find myself thinking I want more and more. We are in no way shape or form living with little by any means. I mean we own a beutiful brand new house, nice cars, nice furniture, big flatscreen, xbox, two of them! We have a wii, internet,laptop, iphones, I mean come on! We have so many things luxury items I cant count! I guess I see other people who seem to buy what they want and have just such nice things and I think man why cant we be like that. Our house is so cute nicely decroated, but I see other houses sometimes and I think wow how beautiful if I only had the money to decorate my place like this! Why cant we go on yearly lavish vacations? I just gotta say we are not thoes people with all the money to spend and not worry or budget and thats not what lfe is about anyway. I am not afraid though to be honest and say I strugggle with it sometimes. I will get mad because I vant go do GAP and buy all my kids clothes I can only get some there because they are pricey so I go to Old Navy ect. Just dumb I know it and I am trying to work through it. Christmas is a struggle for us to come up with all that extra money for everyones gifts I just wish we had it ready to go and could just buy whats needed. I would def say we are middle class some would say upper middle class. I do struggle with going back to work soon too. I am in school I will be an RN within 3 years money will be no issue by then. I do wonder though if in about 6 months I should get a part time job just so its not so hard on my husband. It would be at night when the hubby is home of course. Its just really crazy how expensive California living is my husabnd makes by himself about what a 2 working family would make and its a struggle! I dont know do others feel like this or am I just being a whiner, or do you find yourself always wanting more and more??

You're human. We've all been there. I find myself wanting things and having to say "oh, I don't have money for that". We live pretty well so sometimes I feel like a brat thinking like that. But it would be nice to just buy what I want, when I want and shop at The Gap instead of just the sales at Old Navy and Target. We live on a pretty tight budget because we're paying off a lot of medical bills from the past 5 years or so. You also have to think about some of those people who have all of the things you want....they are either in debt up to their ears or they are sacrificing something to get that. We could live a lot more lavishly if my husband didn't have a job where he was home every night. Our family time is much more valuable than having tons of money. If you have to have a part time job to live then I think it might be a good idea. But if you just want one for extra money, you need to think about whether you're sacrificing anything to do it. How much time will it leave you and your husband to have together, will it cut into your "family" time, etc. Don't spread yourself too thin. What you feel is normal. At least you realize what you have and are grateful for it.
Thanks for the information. Once very beneficial to us all. Awaited further information.
