What to do when you've lost one income...

When in Rome, do as the Romans do. When your husband is out on strike, no money is coming in and your health insurance is gone - buy a kayak! This is our situation right now and with everything else that's going on, I splurged on something to help keep the demons away. I'm not advocating spending frivolously but I do recognize the need to detach from reality. In all seriousness, it's been scary without his income but we know it's temporary. I am just one of those people who can't dwell on the situation and needs to focus of the positive just to get through the day.
