If we do not find jobs in February, we will have to move in with my ILs in WA. If we pay no bills this month (and we have already paid no bills for January) then we can pay for March's rent. Our lease is up at the end of the month. Friend's here can store some furniture for us and we can keep some more at my FIL's church back in WA (he's the pastor there). My old job is being posted for right now and I think if I call my old supervisor, I could probably get hired back.
We're failures. We moved here a year ago and had two full time jobs. Now we have nothing. We are already on WIC otherwise DS wouldn't be eating. We are waiting for any other benefits the state might be able to provide to kick in, but so far there is nothing. I am depressed and wondering WTF is the point? Why did I think we could do this? Why did we have DS and bring him into this?
Re: Probably moving back with parents
Try not to be so hard on yourself it could be alot worse.....keep your head up, it will get better
DH and I are in a similar situation. We are moving back to Seattle and will be living with my parents because we can't find jobs.
Don't blame yourself, these are tough times for everyone. Now is a GREAT time to be employed!! When we all conceived our LOs, life was much different. I was gainfully employed, for one!
Hang in there!!?
::big hugs:: I'm so sorry, hon! I totally, totally understand! DH and I are moving this saturday to live with my parents temporarily. My hubby is trying to finish up college, we're also on WIC, I'm a SAHM (wouldn't even be worth it to have me working if we had to pay for daycare), DH was laid off in December, so we're living off the last bit of his student loan money.
You are absolutely not a failure! I know it's hard to keep your chin up during all of this, but it will get better! And if you ever need someone to vent to or anything, I'm in the same situation. Just page or PM me!
