Hi Becky,

You are a great board leader. All of your posts are very upbeat for the most part and very supportive.

Perhaps I don't know the whole story, but your debt situation seems to be getting worse? Maybe I am very off base? You seem to talk about spending a lot (kids, and an upcoming wedding).

I just wondered if you are ok and if you have a plan to get things back on track? Do you have less coming in than is going out? How will you change this?

I love your posts, I am just a little worried about you. Perhaps we all can help?

Girl, do I ever know that dance. (You'd think with all of that exercise, I'd lose a few pounds.) Let's raise a glass (of free tap water) to commiserating! LOL.

Oh trust me...I'm on a completely sinking ship and nothing is going to help it except more income.

I have only been on the board since October 2008 so I did not know all that. I'm sorry for the job struggles. It sounds like you do have a plan for more income with you working in the future. I remember wishing I could work when my kids were small but it would not have been worth it after paying for day care. I hope you find the perfect job, you would be great working at a school. Good luck and keep up with your positive attitude! Things will get better for you.

Yes, I did try some direct sales in between all this roller coaster ride...I do believe I still am paying for some of that too.

Just for opinions -- here are a few other things I have made throughout the years -- do you really think I could make some money at it OR would it be one of those things that in the end will cost me more?


Sorry about the sizes!!!
