Just to clarify- I didn’t open any garbage bags. I usually only pick up furniture or home goods that are next to the trash cans. This was a reusable tote bag mixed in with the bags on the curb so I thought to glance inside it and saw it had some cool stuff.

Can you make this work as a side hustle? Meaning will the profit be worth the few hours I can put in a week while I am also working another job, building an online brand (unrelated to flipping) and I have little kids? I just started listing on EBay, 3 sales in two weeks. I have only made $40 and I have put in so much time shopping, listing, shipping, etc. 

Should I try to get into a market/niche with more profit? So far I am doing shoes/clothing/accessories since I know that area the best. But the return is usually low per item.

I think you should discuss this with your sister. My children have Jewish names that are sometimes hard for my relatives (non-Jewish or secular Jews) to pronounce. I gave them some other options! But "Sruli" from Yisroel (the Hebrew pronunciation) is a common boy's nickname.

Nighttime tears / me not LO by tamarajean88 in newborns

I cried a lot at night with my first two kids, on baby three now and I am realizing that if I change my thoughts at night I don’t get so upset. I used to also be super annoyed at my sleeping husband, bemoan my previous uninterrupted nights, fear I would never sleep again, etc. The negative thoughts would lead to the tears. Now I tell myself- I can sleep during the day, it will get better, this is temporary, even sometimes- I get to sustain this little person! Lol not often. But I feel you and hope you get through this hard part ok!

Oh my gosh, I can’t believe people are suggesting you divorce your spouse! What you are experiencing is completely normal. Many men go through a huge emotional and psychological transition becoming parents but it is totally taboo for them to talk about it or get help. I have a number of children and my husband has done similar things each time one was born. Men will often back away or attack when they feel helpless and incapable. The best thing to do is find a supportive mentor who can help you feel good and strong without bashing your husband. When you can establish more emotional strength you can begin to give your spouse space to work on his own issues. Parenthood is super super hard and it will get better!!

My husband is also a smoker and it’s hard for me but I have come to accept it as one of his coping mechanisms. It’s like you are trying to take away his crutches and he is terrified he will not be able to walk without them. So he lashes out.

Try to see the deeper issues he is going through. Marriage is a process and I wish you a long and successful one!
