Friends with Money

I never knew a hot tub cover could cost so much. A friend bought one last week after discovering that their spa cover got broken for inexplicable reasons. She talked of buying one as if she was discussing getting a set of cookie jars for a dollar a piece. But when I checked the web site she showed me, a “cover” can cost you from $250-$380. I guess that’s how rich she has become. Sometimes she forgets that she’s talking to mere mortals such as I who still waits for paychecks every month before we can even afford a nice weekend getaway. One thing’s for sure, she’s still generous as ever. She even volunteered in taking care of my youngest party but as much as I love her, I declined. After all, it’s one of the things I’ve been saving up on ever since I got pregnant.
