we just decided we are not going to move away from family and it is a very good thing however, we have to start over I feel again here. I have so much I have to do today and luckily my mom is going to help me too. We have to look for jobs which is not the fun part of things but at least my husband once he gets a job and depending on what his salary is, then I will find one too but only a part time job or something....something that My mom and i can work out so that when I am working she is not and when she is working I am not...I may go back to some of that online work and just find out when she is normally going to be working or if she can somehow get a more scheduled set time...that would work because if I can still stay at home and just be there when something happens but have a sitter there to watch the girls while I do my work that would be ideal....SWEET I know what my plan is now we have to find a new place to live

Well it sounds like things are not quite settled yet but you have but things in a list of what you have to do. Where are you living right now? It will be nice to work part time and see the kids more often. I think it is nice for you to get out alittle and get a break from the kids even if it is to go to work. Don't take that wrong but even stay at home Moms, who I consider full time employed, need breaks every now and then. Well good luck and keep us posted. I hope your husband does not take too long to find a job.

yes I agree, it will be kind of nice to have a break from the kids and then feel like not only am I contributing to our funds, but that i am helping our kids out too!! Thanks for the encouragement. He is having a hard time finding interviews but we are working on it. He should find something very soon. I am also looking to find something soon as well but I am not going to worry about it until we are in our new house. we are hopeful that John will have a job by the time we are moved into the house (that is in about 2 weeks).

Glad we all realize that money wont solve our family problems but that family is the most important thing.

It is very hard to move away from family. My family is split between Texas and Delaware. My parents still live here in Delaware so I am still here to help them if they need help and also to spend time with them when I can and while they are still living. The rest of my family lives in Texas and may move there after my parents have passed away. I hope that you and your mom can find jobs that match what you two are looking for and the hours are good for both of you. Hopefully your husband will find a great paying job so that you will not have to work full time as well.

I think you need to have some backup plans and a good budget for time and money which will allow your plans without going into debt.
