Who makes random judgmental comments on people's blogs?

Thanks! Your msg made me think how cute one would look on top of a child's gift instead of a bow! Great bathtub toy, too!

Wow. For a "seasoned writer, blogger and counselor of mind/heart/spirit" you have a very harsh communication style. Clearly knowing nothing about how Heather's family allocates their other money (not having cars, TV, Cable, and other major expenses many people choose to take on) you made some very negative comments about her choices. Her lifestyle is void of empathy? Not grounded in reality? Generated from a very small space? Man. All because 4 words rubbed you the wrong way? Quite the spirit healer. Best of luck with that counseling stuff. I hear it takes tact, but maybe not so much as I thought.

I also currently spend $800 a month on groceries. I live in the mountain west and there is only 1 grocery store with in 40 miles of my home. We pay a premium, and I mean premium to live deep in the mountains. Grocery cost WAY more out here. My family from the DFW area in Texas are always amazed at the price differences. We make far less than most people but we do not need clothing for work, we work from home so spend way less on gas, and don't pay for any TV, cable, XM radio, dish, etc. So MUCH less on home entertainment than most Americans. My point here is that spending more on groceries doesn't neccessarily mean you have more disposable income. It just means you spend what income you have in different ways.
