    The area we live in has one of the lowest "COL" in the nation so our bills could honestly be paid by a single person with a low wage job.


    Where in the country do you live with the lowest "COL" in the nation? Asking cause when MIL passes, we want to move and we want out of Southwest, VA. Please let me know.
    No, I don't hate you, I'm envious of you! WTG girl!
    Congrats on the weight loss!

    Thank you! I will send you a message.
    Thanks I will be lookin' for it!

    Let me start like this- many many challenges each and every day,however I take time to say thank god to be so fortunate
    thank my children relatively healthy or my daughter's eye disorder is under control for now .
    So I take her to the dr.once a month which is an hour drive and then we spend about 4-5 hours at the drs office
    Best doctors,best kid- never complaints :)
    Dealing with her - middle school- not doing homework etc. Emailing teachers how to get her grades up.
    Dealing with my younger son- an angel with bad tantrums here and there
    Husband - gambling addiction- who doesn't think he has an issue, that brings up the financial issues and paying the bills all alone.
    Keeping touch with my family- far away ..
    Waking at 5am be at work by 6 latest every morning.
    Full time work- dealing with 20-30 employees and worrying about constant changes at work.Impossible to keep up.
    Driving to pick up kids after 8-10 hours of work.
    Cooking,grocery shopping.
    End... In the middle of it ,I have time to love the sparkling blue sky amd ocean,I have time to smell the tree flowers T 5:30 am when Im driving by and take a deep breath when my son falls asleep next to me... Thats what Im greatful for... Each and every day- Im not alone ...Bills and everything else wont matter...

    Jealous.

    - $24,000 in credit card debt
    - $25,000 in student loan debt from my ONLINE master's degree that's proven to be nothing but an expensive piece of paper
    - Mortgage payment
    - $26,000 on my car that's 2 years old
    - 33% personnel cuts at my full time job being announced in 2 weeks, so no clue if I'll end up bankrupt
    - Hour-long commute each way to work 5 days a week
    - Being placed on probation in my part-time job because I've fallen behind so bad
    - The Army Reserves forcing me to start drilling nearly 200 miles from home, meaning a huge commute, hotel stay, and 3-4 nights a month away from home
    - All of my family being 2500 miles away in another state
    - Cervical Cancer that I had to get surgically removed and has come back
    - Early arthritis in my shoulder/neck

    Oh, and I'm 25 lbs overweight.

    Oh, and two cats and a Betta fish.

    Why is your student loan so inexpensive!!! Compared to the UK - when I finish my law degree I have a student loan of £45,000 = $75000 :sad: :sad: :sad:

I had a colonoscopy & endoscopy earlier this year and was diagnosed with Crohn's. I am also in the process of being tested for multiple sclerosis due to neurological symptoms I am experiencing.
    -I have terrible anxiety/panic disorder that is very debilitating.
    -Finishing my Public Health degree with a double minor in Spanish and psychology.
    -My job… I'm a nanny for a 3 month old and 3 year old.
    -Caring for my cat and guinea pig.
    -My car.
    -Paying off student loans.
    -Cleaning my house.

    Dang, my life is easy.

    I cook and clean house
    I feed my stepson and take him to daycare
    I have a sole proprietorship business, so I spend most of the day doing work-related activities from my dining room, though I typically get sent out on contract jobs between 2 and 5 times a week.

    The business takes way more time and energy than anything else I do, but it's so incredibly rewarding for me to be doing something I love.
