okay, just feel the need for a small rant.
we have been saving up money for a new computer... which is fine, we need it. yesterday, hubby came home with an unexpected bonus from work (woohoo!), which will cover the cost of the new computer... great.. but, he has now decided to upgrade the computer he wants, including getting a set of really fancy speakers.
i just don't get this! we neeeeeed the money, it has been MY focus for the last 6 months to get us out of debt, and he wants to get these stupid speakers (what's wrong with our current speakers? why do we even need new ones, let alone fancy ones?), when i would much much rather take that money and pay down some of our debt. i even took all my birthday money (gift from my parents and my in laws), and put every penny towards paying off our debt... and there is a million things that i'd like to go out and buy (how about enough chairs for around our dining room table, so that our WHOLE family can eat *together*???)
i even told him that he can order his computer, minus the speakers, and we can think about getting the speakers later (a christmas gift maybe?), but he wants them now
okay, rant over!
