Hey, What Did You Ever Do With That Money?

Hello.Hey, Bloggy Friends!

I took it and bought myself a new pair of skinny jeans!

Just joshin' ya!

Sorry it's been a minute since I got back to you about the extra $82 I noticed on my checking statement a few weeks back. I pretty much decided pretty early on to return it. At first I was trying to come up with some alternatives to donating to a good cause, but then I got all caught up with school, then Hillary came to visit and I just haven't thought that much about it - until now!

As you can tell from the poll, the vote was practically split in half. I thought it would be a really fun idea to take it and donate it, but some of you thought it wouldn't be the right thing to do - karmicly. Is that a word? It is today!

The one comment that really got to me was the "be a good Kentucky boy and return it." I'm not sure who that was - but it worked. I'm giving it back, Bloggy Friends!

It was a fun concept, but in the end I guess if I am going to donate money it should be my own. That would benefit everyone involved. Maybe one day we can all get together and decide on a way to gather money and donate it to a good cause, but right now I'm just pulled at both ends as I am trying to finish up my last two weeks of school.

So, that's the story! Ironically, I noticed this week that there is a new show starting on the BBC this weekend called ROBIN HOOD. We are both excited to check it out. I love historical mini-series. I know it's a mythical tale - but there's history involved!

Have a great day, Bloggy Friends. I hope you have weekend plans that suit you to a tee!

Love, Josh

Good luck with wrapping up the semester!

Although I might have done differently, I applaud your decision...

Maybe the bloggy friends collectively can rally to donate to a worthy charity... that would be fun.

I assumed when I saw that "good Kentucky boy" comment that it was your mom writing!

That comment was from me Josh! Your LCA fraternity brother. Glad to hear you did that. Have a good one!

I'm curious about the response from the bookstore when you return the dough.
