Having to make a personal family budget, and dealing with rising costs and expenses on the one hand and stagnant income on the other, is not fun. I know I am more fortunate and well-off than a mind-numbing portion of the planet’s population, but that’s not my fault; that’s an accident of birth. Trying to make ends meet in my current reality is my responsibility, and we were reminded today that we’re struggling a bit. We’ll have to come up with creative ways to solve our issues (we’ve started working on that already), without the “benefit” of creative accounting and other such perks of the corporate set.
This blog may be many things already, and it will hopefully grow and evolve some more, but one thing I don’t ever want it to become is a bitch & moan session, so ’nuff said.
Shabbat shalom.
