Ok, it is time for me to come back out of the shadows. I was here last year, and lost my way with the birth of our new baby in April. Six weeks off of work, unpaid, some postpartum depression and a bailout loan from my mother, which consolidated all of our debt,
Welcome back, Janet! Sounds like you had a challenging 2009. I hope this board can help keep you on track in 2010!
Congratulations on the new baby! What a cutie!

Sarah and family (DH, DD 11, DS 8) living outside Baltimore, MD. I've been on this board for a while, although not nearly as visible recently as in the past.
Current challenges: DH lost his job 7 months ago and hasn't gotten so much as an interview in the intervening time. He's back in school, working on a network security certification, but in the meantime we're actually doing o.k. The great advice I got here in the past and the good frugal habits that have been a part of our lives for years now mean that we're able to manage on just my salary at least for some time yet (we had built up a very good emergency fund prior to his job loss, plus had paid off all debt except mortgage and student loans). I think we'll be secure through the spring, by which time I hope his extra coursework and improving economy will lead to more job opportunities.

Hi,
My name is Jessica. Married with one child. As of right now we are staying with my sister. We are planning on staying one to two years to get debt free. We pay her monthly, it's just cheaper to stay with her. :) So my 3 plus her 5 equals 8people. :)
