I'm so worried about work/money. To cut long story short - I am freelance but tend to get rolling retained contract work, for 12 months or ongoing. DP is also freelance but his work is much more uncertain and individual project based. Anyway, I have come to end of one contract and DP has managed to cut through tendon on thumb (cutting up christmas tree - don't ask) which makes it very difficult for him to find work.
I'm so scared - for the first time - it's a very real possibility that we might not be able to pay mortgage, DS's nursery fees etc. I can't beleive that we're in this situation and (if I'm truthful) I feel a bit resentful towards him (unfair and irrational I know but I think some of it is because I would really like another baby at some point this year and that seems like an impossiblity at the moment).
I have a few possible jobs on the horizon but nothing definite. Woke up last night in panic, we have no savings and I feel like crying. I don't know what we can do.
