Kathryn,
I never thought about it like that but it is so true…  I remember all too well the anticipation of putting ‘new’ money in instead of the reality of what was already lost…until the way home.  I like how you described the insanity! 
It’s afternoon there and almost bedtime here.  It’s amazing how the internet brings us, half a world away, together.
Enjoy your day.
