[quote=Anonymous]The job market is abysmal right now. Tech layoffs are becoming more common. You should be thanking your lucky stars your DH found a job right away in this market paying that much. Many people have to accept pay cuts to get the footing again after a layoff. Get a good network of sitters (I have 3 kids and have a number of HS sitters in walking distance from my house who come for a few hours as needed). And in the summer/school breaks we have even more college sitters. If I can’t find someone for last minute stuff most offer to connect me with a friend who is available. We pay well and feed them to make sure they want to come back. Neither DH nor I have broken the 200k mark salary wise. I assume if we can afford this then you can as well. [/quote]
