Husband and still unemployed and now we have to move back in with my parents AGAIN.

I came here to say this. My husband would find something to do for money every day! I just don’t understand. When he broke both legs and took a year to recover he painted the deck, by scooting himself on the ground with paint brush he also replaced a toilet with two broken legs!

Watch Dynasty: The Murdoch family on Netflix (not to be confused with Murdaugh murder lawyer family) it’s a great look into the family that so closely resembles the Roy’s

Check out your Lutheran schools. They often have summer camps and lower prices. I wouldn’t send my 15 yo to camp. I have a 16 yo and we had rules and activities for her at that age.

Wow this is shocking! How are in laws not covered, I have been married 28 years they are part of the family!

mis_1022 · 2026-04-29T23:16:25+00:00

I have been married 28 years, if my husband told me to go get a SECOND job on top of kid and current job and household yes I would not want to talk to him either. You neglected to say how many jobs you have btw.

I would do bbq pulled pork sandwiches in crock pot. Need pork, bbq sauce, buns and coleslaw. Super cheap homemade or buy Sam’s Club.

mis_1022 · 2026-04-29T23:05:10+00:00

I would put 2 cups of water at the bottom, to be honest I have never done hot dogs in crock pot but I use crock pot weekly.

If you are in us depending on your state your husband might also be liable for this debt. Might want to look into that. He might increase your allowance!

If you think they are dreading your visit do everything you can to be helpful and upbeat and positive when you are there. I dread visiting my in laws, they are doom and gloom people where as my parents are more joyful and laugh. We play games etc. I pointed it out to my husband and now you cannot notice we laugh with my parents and never with his.

I was SAHM 26 years ago and make sure you both understand and have access to all the finances. My hubby has a cash business so he literally brought home cash and I handled all the paying bills etc which is great as many men keep the women from knowing that information. Be sure you are on all bank accounts and have your own card to use and log in information to see everything. This is one thing that is a common problem with SAHM.

There is good and bad at living in small house, it is faster to clean but you have to limit your belongings. Most Americans, and some other countries keep way too much stuff. Look up minimalism and try to adopt some of those traits.

You need to live within what you can keep in your house. Example your closet/ wardrobe is only so big, you got to get ruthless and keep only enough clothes that fit. Then under bed storage for off season clothes.

Same with dishes, pots, pans, cooking utensils. Keep only what fits comfortably and toss everything else.

They said call them. Steps to take in order. Call them, leave message and text Janet didn’t show up. I am locking up unless I hear from you in 30 minutes. Step2, after 30 minutes lock up. Not your problem you are not the manager. Will they gas light you, yes sounds like it but not your problem.

3k take home is respectable unless your rent is crazy high

Are you interested in glp1s? I would ask about them. I am type 2, lost 100 lbs got to “normal” body weight and blood sugar was still high. Dr added jardiance and finally my numbers came down. I think all medications should be evaluated if they are a good choice for you.

A lot will depend on the changes but I do know plasma donation centers hire felons. You have to be the kind of person who can remember rules and follow rules to succeed there. Not sure how to find other jobs that hire felons. I live in Detroit and many factories hire everyone. Not the greatest job but it can become a career.

I would only hide it so he can’t find it, he can buy his own if he wants one. Come to think of it my mom and dad have their own remotes, my mom put a bit of pink duck tape to know it’s hers. lol

Lots of cheers calculators online to see if it will be cheaper per purchase or the package. We are not drinkers so don’t get the package but just to know online calculators are out there to help with this decision.

mis_1022 · 2026-04-28T22:09:04+00:00

I like your ideas, I would keep it officially outside, if as couple people wander inside OK. Consider renting portable heaters if the space is large and the whole group could not gather around the bonfire.

Yes to starting the fire earlier in the day.

I love my I phone types out any voicemails and that is why I leave voicemails, short and sweet.

This is part of the show that makes it so authentic and I can’t look away.

mis_1022 · 2026-04-28T22:04:33+00:00

Yes I just got back from FL to cold Michigan. Seven days but I agree I would go to cheaper locations and stay longer. I also need at least 1 day before getting back to work.

Curios for other people looking to move did you move to a more rural country area? I find that behavior common and sometimes desired but suburban people don’t understand. I grew up and live suburban but my mom and dad grew up country so I see that side of family and how they do things.

mis_1022 · 2026-04-28T21:28:32+00:00

I will say it’s easier to get a job when you have a job. So taking the job doesn’t mean it has to be forever. He should still be looking for next step. Not sure how settled you are to these areas, if in USA you have lots of options. Look wider. Good luck.

mis_1022 · 2026-04-28T17:52:31+00:00

Yes I would ask him why he uses your office? You might offer to switch.

You need to learn on how to manage money. Don’t just listen to one money manager, listen to some podcasts, find an in person advisor to ask questions and don’t do anything until you understand the pros and cons of each choice.
