[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 96326, member: 84"] And I can't even unload and vent without interruption. *sigh* This is like a punch in the gut for me. I've spent the past year hoping and praying husband would get hired permanently so that he'd make enough money we could survive. And now that it's not going to happen I'm devistated. I wasn't looking for riches here. Just something close to a livable salary would've been nice. I mean :censored:, husband has to drive 2 hours a day to get to this frimping job in the first place. A third of his pay goes out to GAS. Are these people insane? And to find that I can't even find a job in the field I trained for is just too damn much. husband is thrilled and proud of himself, and all I want to do is punch him silly. Isn't that awful? And it isn't really a choice of husband taking this job. He's 59 yrs old, it's not like companies are jumping wanting to hire someone that old. I feel defeated, sad, overwhelmed. I cried all last night when I should've been happy. I haven't even been to sleep. I can't sleep. There is too much to worry about. Bills are already so far behind I don't know how we're going to catch up. I've got three bill collectors taking me to court cuz we just can't pay them. Oh, fun. NOT! been there done that I'm doing everything I can to keep bills down to a minimum, I don't spend extra money. Of course there isn't extra money to spend, but that's beside the point. easy child is already buying the pet supplies because other than the new kitty, the other animals wouldn't be able to relocate with other families. Nichole finally went and got WIC for the baby cuz I'm having trouble keeping food in the house. She takes Aubrey to her Dad's to eat. As it looks now, there will be no xmas this year from husband and I. While the kids understand, it still hurts that we won't be able to do it. Thanksgiving dinner won't happen unless someone else foots the bill. I can't afford it, either. I'm sick of being so poor you never know where your next meal is coming from. I'm tired of working my fanny off to try to make our lives better only to have it fall apart worse. (husband lost his job right after I went back to school last yr) Yep. I'm feeling pretty defeated right now. Sorry I unloaded on you all. But I have no one here to listen. If you got this far, thank you. [/QUOTE]
