I feel for you squeeka. I hope that we both will be able to go back to just one job, its so hard to do after getting used to that level of income, seems like there's no way to do without the money (notice I didn't call it extra money). I had thought that I might be able to get a higher paying job and quit the library and spend more time with my family. So far the higher paying job hasn't come up and my husband walked out on me (I wasn't paying enough attention to him). Found himself a nice girl and they just get along so well. And my daughter is entering college in the fall. On a better note, we did get a wonderful letter yesterday, she's been picked for a scholarship. Every little bit helps. :-D As much as I hate working so many hours, I am very thankful to have the two jobs with the way the economy is. Best wishes for all. Ang
