[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP I feel for you. We are in Alexandria too and have found ourselves in similar positions several times since the recession. It is SO stressful. We are once again headed down this path - thankfully the job market seems stronger this time around but I'm worn down from the continued job losses and DH is older than I - workers older than 50 have it especially tough in certain fields. I continually wonder how we will make it. I do have work but it doesn't come close to covering our expenses but will just cover mortgage. We have come within a month of not being able to pay. We think all the time about when to sell etc. We have 2 teens so it is very difficult but we won't dare lose the equity in our house so we would sell if we needed to but that would mean leaving DC and a whole host of other issues.

Anyway, just wanted you to know there are others of us out there who understand what you are going through. Ignore the people who have no CLUE - Lord knows there are plenty of them. [/quote]

And that was pretty much the beginning of the end for us. The Recession. My daycare business has changed drastically over the years but held us over as long as DH was employed. Him losing his job was the nail in the coffin so to speak. I am thankful for what little I still have coming in and thankful for my health. i see others around me who are worse off than I am and I remind myself things can definitely be worse. Thank you for your kinds words. much appreciated![/quote]
