Today I took my pick-up in for repair. Of course there were more things that need to be done to it than I expected. $3K+ worth. Add to that, I had my taxes done last week and I owe the Feds $XXX and California owes me $XXX + $7.Depressing to say the least. But then I sign on here and see Brian's post regarding his son and I think about my friend and her breast cancer, and it puts my piddly little money problems into perspective. Some overtime and a gun sale or two will help the money issues. I only wish it could be that simple for my friends.

Nothing really matters except faith, family and friends. Everything else is pretty minor.

Sooooo true Rob.

I also owe uncle sugar some more taxes and I'm caught in this government furlough and will be losing 1 work day per week...that's a 20% cut! Then I think many have lost their jobs entirely. My family is healthy and kids are progressing into their own productive lives so I am among the blessed.
