Buying a house also depleted most of our savings and we are waiting to save for renovations. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/money-vent#post-1244216 Tue, 26 Nov 2013 12:31:39 +0000 jedeve 1244216@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like all I've been doing is venting about money.</p> <p>I know things will get better soon. But right now we're BROKE! Because...</p> <p>DH took a new job in September, and his work is reimbursing him for COBRA until putting us on their plan in January. Problem is we have to pay that at the beginning of the month, and he gets paid at the end of the month. So we essentially had to pay for two months in one month. We'll get the extra $1000 back in January, but right now it was a blow to the savings account!</p> <p>We haven't been reimbursed out of the childcare FSA for the last three months. I don't know why it's taking so long? So essentially we've been paying double for childcare for three months.</p> <p>I know it will all be *fine* - I just took on a few more hours at work and we get paid at the end of the month. Buying a house depleted our savings and we need to build it back up. It's just really unfortunate timing! Especially since we have the money, we just don't *have* it, you know?</p> <p>End rant. </p>
