WORKING the long days to debt.

It seems that the more I make, the more I have to buy and spend. I just bought a big ass TV for the house, I wanted one of those TVs for a long time and it seems that this is the first time that I was able to pay that much money for one and still have food for the house. I hate spending money on anything like that, I think that I could have used the money for a trip or add the money for the girls college tuition or something else that is needed at the house.

I also feel guilty that I can get stuff and some of my friends can not. The guilt comes from my Mom, she buys NOTHING for herself, my dad has to buy her gifts and she doesn't wear them or shows them to anybody because she feels that she is bragging and that is a sin.
My brother bought her a bicycle a few months ago and it is until now that she started to ride it. Then my sister got her a membership to a very nice club so she can start swimming again and train for a triathlon (something that she has wanted to do for a long time) but she wanted to go to the college, four miles away, because after putting four kids through that college, my Mom and Dad have free access to all those facilities.
BUT I HAVE WANTED THAT TV FOR A LONG TIME. So I told the wife to go on line, fine a good TV and just get it. So she did and I feel that my Mom is going to say somethin about it because it was too much money.
I am 43 years old and still have to listen to my parents bitch at something I do and they don't agree with.
But I still love them.

Have a great week.
