I feel as if all I do on this board is complain...but I have no idea what elase I can do. We could sell the house but we would have no where to live and no-one would let us live anywhere with our horrible credit rating. We have 2 small children and I have been on edge a lot lately as well as my husband. He did have a job interview yesterday which would increase our yearly pay by 15,000.00 and he has another one within the company he works now on the 26th on January. I had a client bag on me which means I lost $650.00. Needless to say I cry a lot....I feel we hit a wall every time I turn around. We don't live above our means...no extra's what so ever...anyway, one day at a time I know but I worry about the next who doesn't?

Birthjunkie - I'm so sorry things are so tight right now! :(


It's very, very tempting to worry about the next day - but I try only to think into the future when I have money I can set aside to save for the future.

All my best,
Danni

Just wanted to send you a cyber hug.

Also, as Danni mentioned..take one day at a time. I know it's easier said than done.
