I just checked my bank account balance to be sure my paycheck went in...
it did
but I still only have $50.00 in there... :( :( :( :( because we are not only living "week to week" we are living under that and my $600.00 over draft protection has been used waaaay too much the past few months and I am super stressed out...
Just got a call from the condo association that we owe about 3K in condo fees...
Have a shutdown notice from the electric company on the kitchen table...
and bills and bills and bills and bills...
I look back at the nice little budget I created when we bought a few years ago and wonder how I got here...
but it's easy... the band broke up and I lost that income, and then I had a few unexpected bills on top of it all, and then we got behind on some credit cards, and then it all snowballed out of control until we got here...
And I have no idea how to get out.
We don't spend money any more... I wear the same boring clothes... i have mastered the art of 100 different ways to make noodles for dinner...
I am thinking I am absolutely insane for having gone off my medication to try to get pregnant when we are faced with this shit right now... I can't get pregnant until we have OBVIOUSLY caught up with our bills... but how do we do that???
Husband is going to have to get a second third job. (He already does a camp for Japanese students in the summer) I have to figure out other ways to make money...
Any advice???
I have never sold anything on Ebay before... I was thinking of selling old books on Amazon and some video games and stuff on Ebay to make up some lost money... but I have never done that before, so I don't know if it is more aggravation/shipping costs than its worth??? Anyone have experience with that that they can share????
If I can make some quick money and pull us back from behind I feel like we will be back to treading water rather than drowning... I really wish life was free.
Wow... I am really stressed... can you tell????
Advice?????
