To Spend or Not to Spend...

Lately Kathleen and I have had a lot of talk about money which I know is not completely uncommon between couples or anyone for that matter. It serves a purpose in our lives and depending on your own personal situation on any given day, the conversations can vary in many different ways. Of course the most common topic has seemed to be the shortness of green everywhere you turn lately. People talk about the economy, their jobs, people they know without jobs, benefits, health care costs, low pay, expensive needs, and on and on and on. Ultimately, while some of us may be experiencing tougher times and bigger challenges or maybe they only seem bigger and tougher, we are still very blessed individuals. No joke. If you are reading this right now, I don't care how tough you have it... you are pretty blessed. The Lord is looking out for you. If you disagree, you need to reflect a little bit more. So, with all the seriousness that has been occuring with money discussions at this household and the seriousness that I experience in any discussions about money outside of this household, I found it pretty amusing to laugh at a Weird Al Yankovic Parody about money. "Whatever You Like" is a song by T.I. and is basically about the lavish things rappers often rap about. Weird Al gives it a funnier twist and few lines in the song hit my funny bone pretty good. If you ever stress about money... give a listen... and laugh.
