Manage That Budget!

Boy…how would it be if we just threw our hands in the air when things got tight and told our creditors and mortgage holders that we were just going to shut things down due to lack of funds. You know…you mismanage your paycheck and can’t settle into a reasonable budget…overspend a little here or a lot there and don’t have enough left over to pay your taxes. Maybe it would be cool if we just let the IRS know that until we can figure out a good budget, we’re just not going to be able to pay our taxes coming up here in a week or two. Of course, we could always use something like checkcity.com payday advance loan , but why string ourselves out even more…Cool? Yeah…I think that might work! Anyone wanna see if this would fly?

Happy Spring!

I cannot believe how fast the Spring Holy Days are approaching! We are just over two weeks out from Passover and Days of Unleavened Bread. If you know anything about these spring high days, then you know that my family is earnestly and busily preparing by cleaning out all the nooks and crannies. Next week I will begin cooking and preparing for the Night to be Much Observed. Today I ordered my boneless lamb shoulder — mmmmmmm…I can almost taste it now.

One thing that is not on my list…kids Easter baskets…we do not celebrate Easter. I know…a little weird, eh? Our spring holy days coincide with and have similarities to Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday, but are actually quite different when you examine them closely.

Happy Spring!
