Money money money

Right now I'm stressed out over - what else? - MONEY. I usually don't let the green stuff get me down. I grew up without much of it and turned out fine, so my philosophy is that if you work hard and are responsible, things turn out ok. And I'm so not complaining right now. My lot in life is very good. I just can't help but feel the pinch this summer, since I haven't been getting any paychecks (private school teachers don't have the 12 mo pay option around here, I guess). We just paid all our bills for August, so we're in the clear. But we're left with little to no money to celebrate our 1 year anniversary with. And on top of that, my molar just chipped, so I need dental work. AND I just decided to sign up for the ESL program at National Louis, which is going to cost a pretty penny. I know the tooth and the endorsement are important expenditures, but I can't help but getting a little stressed out about spending all this money. :(
