Got a text from my stbx today - he has permanently been laid off from his job. No income. No income means no spousal support. We were supposed to try and go to mediation in Feb. and I don't see that happening unless he finds a really good job, really fast.

This is really, really bad for me and the kids. I highly doubt we will be able to stay in our new home. I cannot afford it alone and I really don't know what my stbx's financial future is. This makes me very sad as we are very happy here. I love it here as a matter of fact.

I don't know what this means for our divorce as the final date for a decision has been set for March. If we continue with the divorce, which I'm sure he will, I may end up giving him support. Wouldn't that be a hoot - NOT!!! I don't make enough now.

If you have time, could you please send some prayers up to the Big Guy asking for a little help with this one. Just need help making the right decisions for me and my kids right now. They've gone through so much already.

Thanks everyone.
