Job loss, unemployment, downsizing to a new apartment to prepare for a new job. It was too much.

I think I imploded just a tidbit..
I knew this might be a difficult transition for the three of us. But I didn't think it would be quite this rough. Facing a job loss wasn't fun. Navigating the unemployment system was stressful. Dealing with the current job market has been a nightmare. But I was ready for a change. I was feeling stale in my old apartment and was hopeful about moving to a new spot. But the apartment is WAY smaller than I was expecting. And WAY louder. I hear music constantly and I don't ever feel like I can rest in my own home.😳😞

Debt paid off to date: $143,849.31 ($99,978.42 in principal, the rest in interest) 😮‍💨
