Take our dog off his needed meds to save money?

Yes. That is what my husband just proposed. He actually said something along the lines of call Dave Ramsey to ask. Very condescendingly, telling me I should have more money saved as a 45 year woman. He has his own savings account just FYI.

Our 13 year old sweet dog has a cushings and a couple more issues that cost about $500 a month average in medications. Yes I‘ve tried regular pharmacies for cheaper cost- no go. So my husband who thinks our dog is “just a dog” and well, apparently, his meds are not a ‘need ‘and I need to cut out expenses that are not needs, so I can have more money saved. Let’s just forget about the horrible impact that will have on our dog & speed up his end because I need to save more is the gist I’m getting. For the record - no. Im absolutely not canceling my sweet boy’s medications. I just want to hear other’s take on the subject.

bonus - I suggested he cut out his nicotine problem and fast food spending, or money it cost for his boat to go fishing every week instead . His response- “I’m not the one with a money problem”.

Any and ALL feedback is welcome. Thank you.

Quiet Time - Am I doing it right?

I go for an early morning ( 6:00AM) walk for 30 min - hour. During this time I listen to the Bible on my headphones, pray and give thanks.

I’m conflicted because my addiction support group teaches Quiet Time needs to be done when you first wake up, sit still and quiet, no distraction, and just focus on clearing your mind and listening to God - for 30 min

#1 - I believe God speaks to us in many different ways at different times.

# 2 - my brain is not even firing on 1 cylinder all the way when I first wake up, not for 1st hour. I tried reading the bible that early but my brain is not really absorbing what I’m reading because it’s too early. I won’t even remember what I read by that night. I don’t feel connected this way.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated!
