scream or cry. Remember my post about my crazy night with the inhaler and the insurance issues? Well, things have finally come to light. Dh works for a small company and their bookkeeping was WAY out of whack and they ran into cashflow issues and couldn't pay the insurance company. Turned out they had about 100K in outstanding receivables that haven't been collected that could have prevented all of this. The person with access to the bankk accounts is out of the country and supposedly wired money to the accounts last Thursday but it hasn't shown up yet. Meanwhile dh was supposed to get paid on the 16th and didn't. Sooo right now we have no insurance and no income. We have enough in savings to make one mortgage payment and that's about it. I'm going nuts at home feeling guilty every time I buy even the smallest thing (and I've dropped my spending to necessities only) and dh says he's told me everything he knows and gets mad when I ask questions because it makes him feel badly that he's not bringing home a paycheck. It's really stressing me out but I can't talk to anyone about it and I can't talk to him about it. Aaaaacccckkkk!

I guess I just need to focus on doing what I can to make our home a refuge and a place for him to get away from his troubles at work and enjoy his family and feel loved and appreciated. Meanwhile I'm scared to death!!!

Thanks for letting me get this out. I have nowhere else to go with it!

Wow Ami, I don't blame you for being scared. That is crazy. I really hope that money turns up soon. How convenient that the person is out of the country. Arrgghh. I can understand you want more information to try and assuage your fears but I'm sure your DH is just as scared. Lots of vibes coming your way that this gets cleared up very very soon. He might want to start sending his resume out to other companies. I would be scared one day they'll just shut down.

I dont blame you for being afraid and upset. That would scare me too! Is your husband looking for another job? I hope this gets cleared up very soon.

take it easy......... vent anytime. Hopefully things will get back to normal soon. Its hard. all you can do is remember family is everything and not let anything mess that up. you can cut back and be creative. Show the kids that being creative can be fun. Nothing to stress about. Relax and take a walk with the family. Hang in there.
