Feeling down

We were hoping for the hubby to get the new job he interviewed for last week. It would have meant:

- a lot more money
- we could start trying for a baby
- we could pay off the last credit card
- we could start paying my student loan
- my parents are moving here form India and it would have meant less worries about their move (they're bringing their own money but some issues with selling real estate there and they have to buy here right away so they wouldn't have a lot left over etc.)
- better schedule for hubby and we'd see each other on weekends and evenings
- I could stop my second job and focus on my 1 job, classes I am taking and the baby
- we culd start a savings account

I really just want to go home, crawl in bed and cry. But, I can't. I have to be strong and say it's going to be ok so he doesn't feel depressed and guilty over not getting the job.

I just want to have a breakdown for a little while but I don't have the time.

I'll be ok but I needed to put thi down someplace he won't see it and I could get it out of my system.

Thank you!

Sylvie,

I totally understand where you're coming from.  My husband was laid off right before Christmas for the 3rd time in a year.  He's still unemployed and unemployment insurance only covers his child support payment - thank God it does!!

Things are tough out there right now.  I get totally stressed and down about the whole thing several times a day.  The best thing I can do is to keep repeating to myself "this too shall pass".

Hang in there!

Thanks! I know I should be grateful that we are able to make our mortgage payments still ... but I wanted a baby so bad and I havenever felt this way before. It hit me like a freight train a couple weeks ago and now my body's going crazy! and my brain. lol

(((( Sylvie))))  Vent away:  What happens on OH  stays on OH

I know. I feel safe venting here. Thanks!!!

Sylvie,

I so understand everything you are saying.  

I wish I had words of wisdom but I'm here to listen to rants and raves any time you like.

we can still do lunch tuesday and vent about it then...

Oh, I need that lunch! Thanks!!!

HUGS Sylvie!

I wish I had a magic wand to wave and make all our troubles go away, but short of that I'm glad you can come here and vent away.  I know you might not want to hear it right now, but I'm a firm believer that everything happens for a reason and maybe there's something better coming soon.
