what to do? My boyfriend and I live with our roomate and the lease is not up until March. However, I just found out today that he may be moving out of state again in the near future. This means that James and I have to get a place of our own and thus more financial stress. He is currently on light duty with a torn acl that may need surgery in three months. Our baby is due in late April and between my severe morning sickness and interstitial cystitis, working has not been possible for me.

To add to it, my brother and sister have the potential to be moving in with us in the next year (they are in an abusive home now that is being looked into by their school and csd) Our dad has a traveling job that will not provide the stability that they need, plus me staying at home I will be able to provide the support and supervision that they need. They are 13 and soon to be 15 years old. My dad has already stated that if they come to stay with us he will gladly help us financially with the equivelant of the child support that he is currently paying for them.

If that is not enough, James' neice who is 9 that he raised from about 2 years old on will be moving in with us for the next school year. I know that this is the best situation for all of these kids and am happy that we can provide a safe home for all of them. However I am becoming increasingly stressed about the finances of it all.

I know the help from my dad and the help from Rayanna's aunt will help a lot, but at the same time it just doesn't seem like it can fit in our budget right now. I would like to be able to do some sort of work from home, but dont know where to look or what to do for that. If anyone has any suggestions about that that would be wonderful. Thank you all and sorry so long.
