Happy Birthday Jim!

as far as finances and 'other things to spend the money on' etc. - I'm over 100,000 dollars in debt due to medical bills. I'll NEVER pay them all off. Does that mean I never get to have any fun? That every penny must go to a debt that I'll never live long enough to settle? If I won the lottery I could pay it off, but I don't play the lottery. I do the best I can - I pay what I can. but I also buy scented candles sometimes just because Life is Short (and sometimes smelly candles are all that comes between me and despair)
