Today I found out
we didn't get the grant. Today I'm feeling really hopeless and sad.
I'm afraid my dream of having a family is coming to an end. This is
really hard for me to deal with today. I wound up taking a half day from
work to come home and try to deal with this new grief. We also had to
take our cat, Scottie to the vet. He suddenly stopped eating and we were
worried. So far the vet said he's OK just dehydrated. They gave him
fluids and when we got home he went to his dish to eat which made me happy.
He's not ready to die yet and for that I'm thankful. It would have
really sucked if we lost him today along with everything else I'm down about.
I got super mad at J too. He's put me through a lot this summer and
he seems to think we can just wait another year till he gets a new job.
He should have been already done with his logbook in the summer and
started applying now but he hasn't. It seems he has one excuse after the
next and the fact is, he hates his job and he'll never make more than he is
right now. This is putting a huge financial strain on us and he has the
power to change that but hasn't. He calls in sick very often and
tries to get out of work all the time.
We spend more money for him to commute to work than he is making so
instead of the credit cards going down, they go up. I pay them down and he spends the money and
sometimes, even wastes money. I feel
like I’m the only one vested in trying to save money for fertility
treatments. I’m beyond frustrated and
emotional today. Every time I try to
talk to him about it we have a blowup.
He keeps saying that there is no hiring boom. I need to wait for the hiring boom. Turns out, he missed the US Airways hiring
boom. He said he was going to finish his
logbook in July. He said it would take 2
weeks. It’s October and he just
finished. He was on disability from July
23rd till Sept 13th.
In that time, we got no money from him and we have recharged all the
credit cards. He’s always upset because
we have no money but he doesn't do anything to fix it. Just complains about it and bitches about his
awful job. Right now, I struggle to go
to work and see all these people who have children and families. I deal with it every day and today I want to
sulk, cry and feel a little sorry for myself.
Wow, I didn't realize how hard it has been for you. Sorry you didn't get the grant. Hope your husband finds a great job soon.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I just needed to vent some of my frustrations out of my system.
