I have been a sahm since ds was born but we got a letter from the mortgage company today that our subsidy is expiring and it mea ds our mortgage is going up 350 a month. We were toeing the line before and some months going a little over our budget but we had some wiggle room. With the mortgage going up that much I don't know if we can do it. We have to stay in our house for another year because of the new homebuyers credit. I'm so upset I really thought I could be a sahm and make it work. Dh and I haven't talked about it but I'm crying thinking about having to go back, even for a year. On the plus side we would have free daycare with my mil at least 3 days a week.
Re: May have to go back to work :(
We've been back and forth for a while now as to if I'm going to have to go back to work and I absolutely hate it! I feel your pain, believe me. Just know you have to do what you have to do, and it looks like hopefully it won't be for very long. We've got a LOT of changes coming up, and I have a feeling in the end, I'll have to go back, as much as I hate the idea.
PS ginafawny - I love the pic, I have a Kirara plush i had completely forgotten about, lol.
LoL Thanks! I didnt know if anyone one here watched anime. DH bought that for me on our first anime convention, we were still dating at the time so I got to pick out the big stuffed animal.
