Take it one step at a time...       07/12/05 06:48 PM Edit Reply Quote ecmmbm Reged: 02/23/03 Posts: 1622 Loc: North Carolina You'll find there are so many corners you can "cut", go to a less expensive car, pay off bills now while you are still working so you'll be that much ahead, commit not to go in debt now that you're planning all this... as for going back to work later, well, all you can do about that is do a great job now so they'll want you back when/if you ever decide to return. Other than that, have to let the future sort of work itself out as it comes. I stay home full time and I can't say that there is anything money can by that would make me do otherwise. Honestly, my heart goes out to single moms and mothers who feel they HAVE to work when they're children are babies. Others who choose to, that is their choice and perhaps what is best in their situation! For me, this is how it is meant to be, I have no doubt. Don't think too far ahead, just one step at a time... now, guess I'll go check on those cookies in the oven. -------------------- Take care, Michelle ...the greatest of these is LOVE.
