Day 8...

...of the 31-Day Blog Challenge - a song to match your mood.

Aw, this one's easy - "Against the Wind" by Bob Seger. Blogger is being a brat about embedding the video, so you'll have to just go here if you want to hear it/see it.

I'm not thinking of this song because I'm pining for a girl named Jenny. :) I'm just feeling kind of melancholy about money and bills. After insurance,the bill for Gage's bloodwork will cost us $1000 out of our pocket. Ben and I work soooo hard to make ends meet, but we can't ever seem to get ahead. Just when things feel safe and okay, we're hit with this bill or that bill. So that's frustrating. And exhausting. It truly feels like we're running against the wind.


I'm not trying to be a downer - just being honest. But I know we'll be okay. We've been okay for 10 years, and there have been a zillion times we've felt this strapped. We'll get through it.
