UGH...when it rains it pours
I need some good work prayers & vibes right about now. Some MAJOR stuff is going on. I work in RE (title industry) p/t 3 days a week, I am home with DD the other two days. My boss had to cut everyone's salary. I make a small salary plus commission. She just had to cut my salary by 40%.
Things in the RE industry are not too good right now and even though I am doing well (bringing in business), deals are not funding and therefore not closing so the business is not making money (long story).
I have no idea what to do. Finding another job with the flexibility that I have now, is not easy.
Oh yeah, in the last month both cars died and we bought a used station car for DH and a used reliable car for me. Plus, our dryer broke and we had to pay to have it fixed and I found out yesterday that my allergies turned into bronchitis. Plus, we have a ton of medical bills from my surgery.
I really don't mean to be like "poor me" here, but I am having a rough couple of days. W T H??? How much more cr@p do I have to have dumped on my plate? I feel so defeated right now.  Thanks for listening.

It sux when the sh*t hits the fan all at once, but hang in there. You are not defeated. You are going through a rough patch, but you will come out of it.
I tend to believe that when one door closes, another opens. I know a bright future is coming your way

Shelly - from your mouth to God's ears... It is so hard to see a silver lining right now.

Right after we got married, DH's boss ended up going on a "vacation" to his country, and never came back. So basically, DH was out of a job.
However, during this time his "side business" of custom carpentry because his full time business. He eventually took over the space, equipment and now is making so much more $ than had he stayed working for his old boss who totally abandoned the business.
Things have a way of working out. This is meant to happen. You may even find a related field or another job with more $ and still flexibility.

That's rough, but stuff like this often happens and then all of a sudden things start to look up. Like everything else, this too shall soon pass.

Re: UGH...when it rains it pours
Big hugs to you Dina!
If it makes you feel any better - I have a feeling I am out of a job and don't know it yet! (Don't forget I'm still on "maternity leave"!) and if I don't work, then we literally have $0 money to put towards savings every month.
