I am so Frustrated and wondering if it is a sign

So as I have posted numerous times about my major desire to be a SAHM and how we decided that we would move to Eastern WA and I would be able to do that.

So our house been on the market since Aug 12 and we have had no luck selling, and DH got a great opportunity in Othello, and started that job on Sept 25.

 We determined that DD and I could not move over until the house sold or I found a job to support the mortgage payment until it sold, so we have been doing the long distance thing since Sept 25. And DH did not want to rent out the house in fear of bad tenants etc.

So then last Tuesday DH says he misses like crazy and needs us to get over there ASAP, and so in order to do that maybe we should rent out the house. So I put an ad on Craig list for two different options (however, we can?t get enough to pay the whole mortgage but it pays for most of it.) for people and get some renters set up on Friday to move in by Nov 15, yeah, so now I can give my two weeks notice and can move over to Moses lake.

So then on Wednesday my DH informs that he hate this job and wants to quit (It has only been 3 weeks on the job, and of course it is going to suck because he is away from us and has no interaction with anybody in Moses lake, however it is only temporary and we will be there soon. )

Here is why I am frustrated I had set up our budget based on his salary, and FREE benefits, so if he changes to something else that will really throw things off.

Then I find out today that the renters I had set up changed there mind, and I have already given my notice at work.

So I am starting to think that with all these things happening that I will not be able to be a SAHM and am very pissed at DH for not stepping up to the plate and sucking it up and realizing it is a temporary feeling and he has only been there 3 weeks and can not throw in the towel on the job yet.

Anyway I mostly needed to vent,

However if anybody has any thoughts I am open to them

  • I'm so sorry.  It sounds like things just aren't going your way at all these days.  I understand that strong desire to be a SAHM and not be able to.  I worked until Tillman was almost 2.  He was a honeymoon surprise and we weren't financially ready for kids.  So, believe me, I understand.  I hope your husband will at least wait until you are there with him before deciding on his job.  It's funny how if you're struggling at home, you also struggle at work and if you're struggling at work, you often struggle at home, too.

  • This is such a tough spot.  I knwo how it is to hate a job from the get go, but when that happened to me, I stuck it out until finding something new and I didn't have a spouse or child to consider.  Encourage him to look, but no quitting without something else lined up.

     

    Good Luck!
