You are going to ride out this storm and do just fine, even if that means stopping debt repayment for a little while. Just take it one bill at a time till DH gets steady employment again. db Ohhh Tricia…

Also, I'm very sorry about your miscarriage. My wife and I went through one of those about three years ago and it was quite rough. Relying upon a tax rebate check goes against everything you're trying to accomplish in getting out of debt. My wife and I have friends (and I have coworkers) who reduce their income in hopes of getting that big check on April 15. Reducing your exemptions is simply giving the IRS an interest free loan until you get the money back after April 15. Go onto the IRS website, use their <a href="http://www.irs.gov/individuals/article/0,,id=96196,00.html" rel="nofollow">withholding calculator</a> and determine exactly how much you should claim to be sure you don't over or under exempt. My best to you. I’ve been reading you for a few weeks and find your writing very enjoyable with a number of lessons I can use in my day to day life. Also, I’m very sorry about your miscarriage.
