I think I've turned my head to money woes because right now, there is no way to fix it. I don't even care that neither of us will be working and both of us in school. Granted, in the back of my mind I know both of our programs will ultimately be eligible for tuition reimbursement/loan assistance. But even so, it's not guaranteed.

I guess if in 4 years, together he and I will make more in one WEEK than he makes in a month, that gives me less to worry about long-term. If he gets into the assistance program that I'm in now, he'll only have to worry about loans to cover the bills. Not actually school.

Still a lot of "ifs".

I still wonder if I should be more worried than I am. There's just nothing there, though.

If you guys moved, what about the house? Would you have to wait for it to sell? I think you had mentioned you'll be owning it once you pay the owner $1k from the tax return? Or did I misunderstand?

No no we won't officially own the title until it is payed off in full. I think at that point we'd either offer it to his mom (she has the land and could tow it to her property - $200 a month would be perfect for her and her place is in tatters), or just work something out with the lady we're paying it off with. There's a lot up in the air right now, as this is all hypothetical. I wouldn't let Aaron take off for another job unless it was secure and made as much or more than what he is right now. Also, I would be hoping that the company would offer some help with the move...I know my dad had a couple cross country moves and the one from NC to NE the company actually paid for the mover to move us, amongst other things.

I guess it would depend on how in demand he is as to whether they'll help with relocation costs. But, there are also programs available in some states to help with moving costs, outside of the company that's hiring I mean.

It would make things more difficult with the kids I imagine, but, things can always be worked around. Always. Ultimately you guys need to get secured before you can secure other things. I just hate these types of decisions though because there is no way to know for sure what's ahead.

I think I need to break away for a bit and start on laundry. I'll be in and out though. I think you said you needed to go tackle stuff soon anyway right?

Izumi 02-21-2010 05:39 PM

Yep. Exactly. I need to get off my tush and get a move on. Just once again struggling with getting motivated. :XP

I'll be in and out most of the day too I suspect. Well once I finally get that paper revamped I'll need to retype it. I'm thinking of writing out the 2nd rough draft first as it's going to take quite a bit of editing to get it up to snuff. Bah. Wish I could have someone else do the damn thing for me. :XP

Chi 02-21-2010 05:40 PM

Ah, the joys of essay writing. :XD

I'll be in and out too then. ^^

Izumi 02-21-2010 05:40 PM

I don't think "joy" is the right word....:XD

Chi 02-21-2010 05:41 PM

True. xD I can't say it's my favorite. I'd prefer an essay over Latin translation later. I dunno when I'll get the gumption up for that. Definitely AFTER laundry though.

Just got this email from Aaron regarding my email about steve-o/new job prospects. Thought I'd share it with you as I found it cynical yet cute.

I may start looking regardless of the situation here. It would feel good to get my professional life back under control.
As far as relocation goes, I get a sick-to-my-stomach feeling when I think about leaving the kids. But it may be for their benefit. Who knows... I just know that this is getting us nowhere fast and its leaving too much of our personal lives in the hands of people I wouldn't trust with a potato gun.
I'm picking at my lunch right now. I have a meeting at 2:00 and I am planning on leaving after that. When I get done, I may whisk you away to a fabulous meal (think Wendy's) so we can relax together for a few hours before we have to get back to our respective responsibilities.
I love you
Looks like I will need to get dressed so I'm ready to be 'whisked'. LOL.

Chi 02-21-2010 05:48 PM

@Windy
Hiii. Make me do laundry!

@Izumi
I love the (think Wendy's). It made me grin. I hope you guys have a good time out later.
Relocation does sound shitty, but I think he has a point in that you guys are miserable currently. SOMETHING will work out with the kids, don't worry. I'll keep my fingers crossed over the next few months.

Okay, now I'm gonna go finish sorting. I'll be back when it's in the wash though.

Izumi 02-21-2010 05:48 PM

That crazy-assed cat has learned how to open the shower door now. Dammit! So much for keeping her from peeing in our tub. (Yes the litterbox is clean...)

I just left it open otherwise she WILL sit and beat on it until she gets it opened anyways. Need to talk to hubby about that.

----------

Yah the whisked away had me grinning too. He's so damn romantic, isn't he? :P

Anyways I'm going, seriously, even though it pains me. *puts hand to forehead and sighs rather melodramatically*

Protagonist 02-21-2010 05:49 PM

I really wish someone wanted my pin ]:

Izumi 02-21-2010 05:50 PM

I do, BD, but the problem is I don't want to pay for it. *runs away before Chi chases her down and tells her to get going* :XD

Protagonist 02-21-2010 05:51 PM

Yeah, I think Im cursed with this pin D< I dont want it anymore.

Izumi 02-21-2010 05:58 PM

Ohhh *holds out grabby hands* :drool:

Protagonist 02-21-2010 06:00 PM

I will probably sell for cheap.

Izumi 02-21-2010 06:02 PM

What is your definition of cheap? O_o

Protagonist 02-21-2010 06:03 PM

Well Im guessing Im asking for like 200k at the moment. But Ill probably let it go for like 170-175k

Izumi 02-21-2010 06:04 PM

That's not cheap. T_T

*runs off again to do 'work', bleh*

Chi 02-21-2010 06:12 PM

I'm wondering where all the quest members went who had been working toward the Patti's? Maybe people are holding out for the GBA or Quester's Raffle. It's hard to say.

Mmm... 3 loads of laundry in, 3 left to do. As I don't feel like doing 6 loads of laundry today from now until dinnertime, I think the rest will wait until tomorrow.

Ghost Love Score 02-21-2010 06:27 PM

Hello?

Chi 02-21-2010 06:28 PM

Hi? O.o

Ghost Love Score 02-21-2010 06:32 PM

Chi 02-21-2010 06:34 PM

I... see. :XD

Izumi 02-21-2010 06:34 PM

Only one load left to wash then I'm totally caught up on laundry! Yay!

Still looking at that kitchen going 'eww'. I hate cleaning the fridge.
