I feel like $hit

BigBelly

My hubby works so hard for us everyday and I stay at home with the kids. Every penny he makes goes to bills and nothing more. I wanna help.him so bad but with nothing but a high school diploma its next to impossible to find a job that I can make enough for daycare and help with the bills. I feel like a pos cause I can't help. I just wish I could make everything easier for him. It's really putting a strain on our relationship and seems like he resents me more and more everyday. I wanna cry
Sorry vent over

@bigbelly to be able to be home with your children is so wonderful. I wish i could but honestly i make double the money my husband currently does (he was laid off and now has a crappy job). That being said maybe you should look into babysitting to earn sime extra $ while you stay home.

Shop for sales! Get coupons. Find recipes to cook on a budget!

BigBelly

@ta2edblondie I do all of that. Just wish I could get paid lol
@2ndtimearound I love being home with my kids just wish I could put some $$$ in the bank to help him. I sub at home daycares when they need me but I haven't worked at any in a while.
@natashalynn we already eat cheap. Like spaghetti or tacos or hamberger helper. Like cheap for real lol I wish I could coupon like those ladies on extreme couponing! That show is crazy!

Maybe try cooking things from scratch. It'll be a little bit more expensive at first, but in the end it all lasts you a while instead of one time dinners. Your hubby will appriciate it more and it tastes better. Especially making your own bread.

I know how shitty you feel. I try to think of myself as making money that I save. I do tons of coupons, I fill out all the surveys you get on receipts its in the lil things!!

i feel like that too. my kids were already old enough(both in school) before i got pregnant again but i was still staying home because i don't even have my license. i wish there was some legit work from home job so i could help out...he doesn't complain but i still feel guilty.

BigBelly

I'm a terrible cook lol @newmommyfeb2012

I know were saving money by not having to pay for DC but damn this sucks!

@myheartzx3 girl I feel you on the work from home thing! That would be awesome if we could find something like that! But it's usually some BS scammer tryin to get your money.

I kinda felt the same way so I started doing Passion Parties. I work nights and weekends, but only when I want. Parties last about 3hrs and I've never made less then $125 at a party! I love the freedom & the job itself! It being on nights & weekends helps to because we don't have to do day care my husband can watch him!

I've Been to one of those parties! They are lots of fun!!! But you have to buy a starter pack thing though right? @pnsw524

@tricesbaby Passion parties is a one of a kind in home party experience. As a consultant you show products, ranging from lotions to toys, and play games with the woman that attend. It's super easy & a lot of fun for both me and the guests. It also not only brings in extra money but it gives me some me time, with 2boys 18mths & new born that's important lol

@bigbelly
They are tons of fun! Lol that's why I got into it! You do have to buy a kit but there are also ways to earn it! Not to mention its super easy to earn your money back! The stuff sells itself.

Do you have family that could watch your kids while you work part time?? If my mom didn't watch my daughter I would have had to quit my job because daycare wouldn't have been worth it.

BigBelly

my mom has a daycare but she doesn't have any space so she would be over in kids. and I don't trust my mother in law to watch them because she's always trying to feed my 3 month old water and stuff that he doesn't need to have yet! @starxoxo9
