I think I am now officially living pay check to pay check and it sucks! We've always had a pretty good life and been good with our money. Living with parents for so long I always had a bit of savings but after the honeymoon and wedding most of it disappeared. But still we were doing ok, then Christmas and now...EEEKKK! Even with my payrise, our rent has increased (it isn't always adventageous to have your mum as a landlord) and I'm now paying increased car insurance. I should stop whinging I know everyone goes through this but it's hard being on one income especially with Hubby not having a job over his huge summer break from uni. He has been helping out around the house which is fantastic but he isn't really doing enough :( Then again my version of clean is different to his version of clean. There endeth my financial woes whinge - nothing compared to everyone suffering from the floods which are not only in QLD but NSW is affected and so is some of WA and then there was that deliberately lit fire south of Perth earlier this week GRRR
It's hard being the income earner while your husband studies, it's a lot of pressure.
ReplyDeleteHopefully he finishes this year which will take some pressure off, it looks like mine will.
