Time to let go of the ordinary...#35

I am actually. Trying to figure out how I will afford everything in a few years when S15 comes off child support and I lose alimony. I keep thinking I need a better paying job to manage it. Things are a little tight now since they had messed up calculating the payments and he overpaid me by quite a pretty sum. His payments were all over the place. So now they have that fixed and as I was doing well before, now everything is tight. Especially since S18 is still at home. Those extra expenses don't go away just because they graduate high school.

Don't get me wrong, he does pay for his extras and covers his car insurance. He buys his own clothes. So he does a lot, but I want him to save money too. Oh well working out solutions as we speak but I still think a better paying job is the long term answer.
