Sorry brother, I will pray that your burden will lessen. I think we are all having a tough lot, but some of us more than others. Good luck, the Lord never gives us more than we can take although at the time in the middle of stress life seems bad.
Sounds familiar brother. Money is tight as a virgin's twat right now around here. Also, health insurance and what not at my new job is TWICE what it was through my previous employer (got a new job in early February, just stopped COBRA and got on the new place's policy... Sucks...)
Keep hanging on bro. Things are bad in a lot of areas, haven't seen a pay increase in 3 years now yet our dedication has saved the plant from going completely out of business
Keep your head up man. I lost my job when my wife was 6 months pregnant with my last daughter. I didnt know how I was going to pull that one off. I just kept telling myself that God knows what he is doing and everything that is happening to you is happening for a reason. I found a job about a month later and it has been great since. It will work out for you as well, keep the faith.
Head up, brother. You'll figure it out. I was worried when I started having kids. How I was gonna pay for everything. Food, clothes, diapers, toys, bills, bills, bills....... You just kinda figure it out as you go along. No science to it. Just one day at a time. Hopefully you have some family support of some kind too. People will come out of the woodwork and give you all their old stuff that they never even used. Strollers, toys, furniture... you'll see.
Hey Ross sorry to hear that your going threw some ruff time also. You will firgure out all the baby stuff trust me. My wife and I had our little guy while I wasn't working and I was losing my mine also with the bills and baby stuff but so far it's working out for us. People will be giving you hand me downs and the baby shower should help out alot also. Don't know why but it will work out in the long run.
I might know some guys that might be looking for a harley. What kind do you have?
Sorry to hear that man. Hope things turn around soon for you and the family. I thought I remember you saying you did inventory and logistics, check your PMs.

1999 dyna super glide. I can give you the ebay link if you want.
In terms of arriving baby on a strict budget, stay tuned into Craigslist and Freecycle.org in your area. Yard sales are almost always a great place to pick up kids stuff. Baby definately does not need new stuff. He/she is just going to tear it up anyway. My daughter is almost 1.5 and the only thing we've paid for is formula and food. Get a BJ's membership. The cost of diapers alone is worth it. Luvs diapers work great. At Wamart they cost around $30 for 97 size 1 diapers. BJ's has almost 300 for around $25 and they often have coupons that will knock off another $4-5. Buy diapers once and you paid for your membership. Berkley & Jensen (BJ's brand) formula has the same ingreients as enfamil and cost dramatically less. I can't stress how many avenues there are for getting free baby stuff. Don't pay for brand new toys. My daughters favorite toy for her first 10 months was a Dr. Pepper can and a cardboard box. Don't go all out for bithday and christmas. 1 or 2 small gifts and wrap some empty boxes with gift paper. All they really want is the paper and the box anyway. Online sites like craigslist have been huge for us. My wife brings home garbage bags full of clothes, toys, diapers, formula, and everything inbetween all the time, all for free.
