I feel better now. Thank you. I guess the problem is that hubby's profession puts us in the position of being the wealthiest people that his friends at work know. Let's just say that after years of service the hubby makes less per year than my paralegal and his department is the highest paid in the area. Most of the guys he works with have numerous children (cops and firemen, what is with that breeding thing? Is it a fear of death and need to procreate?) and stay at home wives so they could never throw an "all inclusive" party like we can. I guess people in lower income brackets are just used to combining resources. Beats me. I will continue, with the apparent blessing of the FB, to do it my way.
