Hey yall. So my life is finally getting into a steady pace after a grueling 2025. I faced relationship issues, an emotional affair on my husbands part, his hospitalization and a psych ward admission, the death of my beloved grandmother who was undoubtedly my safe space and more of a mother to me than my actual mother, all this while being postpartum. In December I got, got by fraudster (12 years of working at a bank and I was the mark). This resulted in a branch loss an investigation and honestly, after the year I had I decided to quit before I got fired. During this time, understandably, my 5 year old started having a lot of behavioral issues. Part of stepping down from my job was to try and give my children the love and attention they deserved as well as getting my house in order. Husband and I have worked through our issues. He’s a year sober and things are finally looking up. I’ve finally accepted the death of my grandmother although the grief is very much still there and my daughter is less anxious and over all im more emotionally regulated. All that to say, times are tough. My cars broken down and I really wanna try and buy a home next year however it feels impossible to find a job. I’ve been applying so many places. I’ve only been out of the work force for 5 months and I’ve received one or two call backs. $15/hr part time is not going to cut it. I should also mention my husband is an over the road truck driver. He’s gone M-F. So mentally, I’m not sure I’m ready to jump back in to something full time. I want to make money. Have an income of my own and be able to live without the financial stress and anxiety. Any sahm in the same boat or with any legit job recommendations??? Not a lot of jobs seem to be family and mom friendly.
