hey there, mother of 3 here. I now in climbing back up the hill slowly, but stress keeps kicking me down. I'm in debt up to my eye balls, and feel that I might leave my husband. Work is not going well. Too many people to attack me because I'm so nice and put up with you know what, Also most got my power shut off today but wrote a check for $100 that I don't have, just to keep it on. Then got pulled over by a cop that follows the law like a book, gave me a ticket of $300 plus because I couldn't find my insurance card, and my inspection stick was past due. Told him it was because I needed four new tires and needed to save money for then which I just had put on. My husband finally takes my jeep to get a sticker and was told that my bake hoses are a mess and need new ones. It just seems like one thing after another. This depression thing sucks with life things to keep it spinning. I just want to craw into a hole....and etc. I don't mean that, but it's so hard to stay positve. Any ideas for a budget

It's funnny how "they" always say money can't buy happiness. Know who "They" are ?? The ones with money. Money gives you options and so much less stress. How differennt would your life be if you had enough money. I'm not talking biillionaire, just enough to do the things that need doin....

There has got to be a budgeting community here on DS. It is so prevalent, with all the prices going up like wildfire and the war. If we do not have a financial problem community we need to ask Doug to put one up. I'll bet that without the debt, then the other issues around you would lessen. I am sorry and pray for your ability to find your way out of this and for your prosperity on all levels.

I don't know how many credit cards you have, but have you considered debt consolidation? There are programs that can help you lower your interest and buy all of your loans and make one affordable lower interest payment.

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
