My husband is wonderful
I told my husband yesterday that I need to get a part time job because our budget is just not working and we don't have enough money to pay all our bills. When he came home from work today I told him about a part time job that may be available soon. He doesn't want me working. He said he would get a second p/t job before I would have to go back to work. He likes me staying at home with the baby. I feel so appreciated for everything I do around the house.

That really is so nice of him, but I'm sure you're very deserving of his appreciation too! It's a good feeling knowing that he takes notice of all you do
I'm happy to say my hubby's the same way. He worked 2 jobs a number of times to get us thru things. I know he takes alot of pride in the fact that I can stay home. It might sound old fashioned to alot of people
, but I know our family is happier for it, and it makes me love him all the more!

First - yes, your husband is a good man.

Are the two of you on the same page on the household finances? Or are you doing the budgeting solo?If you could kick in the pants the person responsible for your problems, you wouldn't be able to sit for a month.
Did you know that a 4 year student paying $20,000/year who finances their education graduates with over $103,000 in debt to start? But a student who works and pays cash and takes 6 years to graduate ends with $6,300 in their pocket! So much for "getting a head start by financing!"

I'm 60 yrs old. In the fifth grade I made a list of my life goals. And a detailed list of what I needed in a husband. God is good, 36+ years and he's the best!

What a great husband you have. He surely recognizes the contributions you put in around the home. I hope that he is able to find a p/t job he enjoys.

You are so very lucky to have such a wonderful husband. I do have an idea for you that might keep you at home and he not having to take a second job. For the past few years until just recently I sold used books on Amazon.com and half.com. I did pretty good about 300.00 a month. Many others do much better but I was very limited in time and room. I got 90 percent of my books from The Salvation Army store and the Good Will. Just a thought. If you want more info email me off list. Diane
