Wow, I am SO PROUD of you! Probably doesn't mean much coming from someone you don't know from Adam... But, WOW. I am so impressed and proud. You are STRONG and CAPABLE. You are a beautiful role model to your family and your husband must be so proud to have a wife like you.

Please keep telling us about things you've done to survive. I wonder sometimes what I'd do... I've no job, our mortgage is $1500/mo and I'll never make the kind of cash that husband does. Though if I were unfortunate enough to lose husband, I would find a smaller home on much less property, for sure.

I am just at awe by you.
