Money, Money, Money

I try to be a good steward of my finances.  However, inevitably life derails my best intentions to stay in the black.  Most of the time I have done without or overextended myself for my children. Lately, doctor visits and related costs are wrecking havoc with my budget: gas, yet another perscription, one more expert.  Lord, what would I do if I didn't have a job? I'd have to do without for sure.  Hmmm.  "The love of money is the rule of all evil." But you still need it in this world to survive.
