Well even though the car is gone... so no insurance, repairs, parking gas we still are not doing well with the budget. So I told dh bring in more $ if you want to spend the same amount but useless spending to that amount shouldn't cut into the family budget for things we need, savings, debts etc.
And I don't want to be without a car forever so we have to start saving as well for that purchase atleast a proper downpayment.
So any ideas?
I suggested that dh could teach a night course, tutor...he's a computer guy but no ability for overtime at work.
I am taking my lifeguarding courses again so I could do that on weekends or nights and not have to get babysitter for three kids (ouch).
I guess I could take in kids after school (a full day child might be too much between the kids now) but I'd really need a car for that.
