Well, I have a few things to respond. When we first purchased our home, we expected a certain amount of money for expenses and so forth. Unfortunately, my husband's car went kaput, so we needed another (not expensive) car. We have gone down to the bare minimum with our expenses to keep afloat, but have not been able to keep up. My husband has a great job that pays him well, and it would not be cost effective for HIM to leave since he is the moneymaker in the relationship - a decision I am in full agreement with. I have not signed a contract, but did give her a verbal agreement in the beginning. I just would like to know what I can say to ease the blow to this family - they are a good family, but I do need to think about me and my husband. help???
