Today the wife got paid, with the final check that we got from HiWired and the bi-weekly pay that we had, this will be the last week that a regular normal paycheck will arrive in the house. Next week I will be empty, the week that follows She will be paid and I will get my first unemployment check (baring disaster or success) so that might cover it as normal, but the countdown is on to the “how do we pay the bills?” days.
The good news is my oldest has only 5 more payments on his highschool and I have under a year to go on my car loan. The bad news is college looms and between this and the crash in the markets the college fund and reserve is tanked.
We will see how the countdown goes so far I’ve had one semi interview for a position at 75% of what I was making and no chance for an increase but they haven’t called back. I’m a bit worried now but I’m not going to go into full worry mode till sometime after Christmas. So we will see.
Wish me luck.
