		<description>Carry - I agree that eating well and relaxing are key to happiness.  Especially in a crises. :)   

A few years ago, I came down with a case of the  &quot;winter blues.&quot;  The next winter I made sure to stay active and it made a world of difference.</description>

		<description>I have read somewhere that although the economy is in crisis, it&#039;s important to eat well and to relax. I suppose that the reason behind this is to maintain a certain degree of optimism. So, I think it&#039;s great that you still play tennis. Good for you!</description>

		<description>Thanks for the comments.

@ Jonathan - Yup, healthcare is expensive.  I also agree with you that dogs are worth it too.

@ Hiro - WOW!  That is a somewhat routine surgery, I&#039;m surprised that it cost that much. But then again with the way health care is going, I probably shouldn&#039;t be.   

I recently had a comment suggest that I cancel my insurance and invest the money I spend on premiums.  I was told that I&#039;d have $19,000 in two years.  When put next to a $70,000 bill, $19,000 is not worth it.</description>

		<description>Talk about budget breakthroughs...I had an appendicitis recently and the hospital bill came out to be $70G.....$70G!  Thank god for insurance, but I still had to fork out more than 1G out of my own pocket.  

It kills</description>

		<description>Healthcare is so expensive, I am even more grateful in the UK that it is essentially free (or very heavily subsidised). Our dog has cost a alot this month with vets fees but hey she is worth it.</description>
