Hi Vicam!

I sympathize with your worrying. Finances are pretty much all I think about these days. I am almost done with law school, am about $150k in debt now, and am freaking out about whether I will find a job. It's daunting. I know that I want to practice law, but if what I want doesn't come through for me right after I get done with the bar, I've resigned myself to the fact that I'll have to swallow my pride and do something else for a few months..even work at Starbucks. Ugh. The horror! J/K

But my point is, that life is what you make of it. There is always some way to deal, but it takes time and open mindedness to see the way out sometimes. I'm like you..worrywart to the core! I used to fly off the handle at stuff like this. Somehow I grew older, wiser, milder. Thank goodness. Something will turn up, all you need is time. I think you opening up to talk is a great thing. It will ease your burden in your mind. And the fact that you are able to identify your areas of personal improvement is huge! Most people can't ever seem to acknowledge and work on their weaknesses! I applaud you for that!

I agree with Nelly. Maybe suggest your fiance take some temp work. Some money is better than none. It sucks to not do what you want to be doing and it is often an ego bruiser, but that's the way you do. When life gives ya lemons, make lemon drop martinis, as I say

Take care and hope you feel happy soon
