[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know OP has some bigger issues to resolve, but it sounds like the salon might be a better choice to keep than the house cleaner. I think you miss it and it was important to you. [/quote]

I agree if the hair salon is important keep it.

As for the house cleaner, I’m not sure what you pay but it’s probably a waste. You are two females how messy can your house really get.

Put your daughter on dish duty and spend a few hours Sat am cleaning everything else. I say this as a single mom of a boy. I stopped worrying about the mess. I do the dishes and he does his room and his bathroom.

My house is messy all of the time, because my DS has no concept of order or cleanliness, but DS does have a college fund. I put the money I’d spend on haircuts, clothes and cleaning into his college fund and a vacation fund.

As for streaming services cut them. If you are depressed get outside sitting at home watching movies doesn’t help.

I’m not sure if you are just being dramatic. I hope you are because $80k isn’t a lot of money but it’s not nothing. Life happens and if your daughter wants to go to college she will find a way. If you haven’t been able to save for college by now you won’t be able to so stop beating yourself up and instead commit to sending her some small amount of money each month for spending money. I didn’t get a lot of help from parents but having a little bit of spending money really helped to keep me going.

Oh and seek enforcement of your child support. If the choice is between paying of going to jail. He will beg, borrow, and steal to find the money. They always do. Don’t think about it too much just do it. Deadbeats don’t deserve empathy or sympathy. Put that money away for a rainy day. Having a little cushion will make you feel better too.

Best of luck to you.
