How to use "Begrudging" in context?
I grudgingly get out of bed each day, anxious to make it to my job. The thought of sitting in the same spot for eight hours irritates me, but I know I need the money. It's not the best job, but it pays the bills and that's all that matters. I'm not necessarily unhappy with my working situation, but I do find it tedious and begrudging.
