I was a DINK until October last year.

I kept the house because I can swing the payments. But just barely. It’s been a tough year adjusting to having a slim budget again, but I’ve made it. Not without worming a second job and denying myself a lot of small luxuries that would have made my mental health.

I’m asking for a raise, but am guessing it’s not going to come.
