money is the root of all evil

i've been having a really emotional week. i'm crying all the time. today's source of tears? money. or lack thereof.

sometimes i feel like we are foolish to live in maine. housing is so expensive relative to what people make. everything is expensive. on the other hand-- it's the most beautiful, friendly, and wonderful place to live. our whole family lives here. we have great work and friends. but we aren't making ends meet. we're always skipping one bill to pay another. what on earth am i going to do when we have another baby in the mix?
