STBXW just informed me that the new daycare will start June 18 and they want 2 weeks payment up front. The cruddy thing is that I get paid on the 1st of the month and I will have to not only pay our current daycare lady my half of the bill, but also pay the new daycare. I am already basically living off of Ramen; and mac and cheese due to all of these dang bills from atty., collection agency (from STBXW not paying medical bills for D1), past taxes, rent, etc.
When I explained to STBXW that it is really going to be a struggle this month to be able to afford this change because of the timing, She just said that "it was my period to pay and [she]could not afford paying for two periods in a row either."
So WTF? Why are we getting daycare that neither one of us can afford right now?
She better hope that she doesn't ever get in a bind, because right now the way I feel I may not be feeling so generous to help her out or be understanding as I have in the past.
I realize this is just a temporary setback and that in 2 years it won't matter, but right now I don't have enough income to afford all this and I have cut expenses to the bone. I have no cable, internet, nothing. No entertainment expenses to speak of. Even food has been cut to nothing, except for buying nutriuos foods for D1.
It just burns me how she is trying to act nice and says she's not being snippy and she's being friendly, but then is so cold at the same time.
