@LadyShadow - It's good to hear from you. It's awesome you made your bed today! Sometimes, I find that is half the battle; if I don't make the bed or I make it but leave the sheets turned down, I'm just tempted to crawl right back in there during the day. Which isn't good unless I had crappy sleep the night before and truly could use a nap. I'm sorry about your money woes; that is tough. We went through a phase where H couldn't find work, I'm not working and literally were starting to pack to move in with my ILs when H got a job offer. Unfortunately, he was later let go from that job, but now my fingers are crossed; he is on his last year as an associate professor before he comes up for tenure next year. I'm pretty sure he will get it, unless the Trumpies in TX government have their way; they have actually been talking about doing away with tenure for college professors in the state of TX university education system. And OMG, wouldn't that be SO unfair, his very last year before his tenure review?!
