Hopefully. I’m in a position of needing to replace some equipment, it’s not cheap. I’m currently too leveraged to buy it on credit, but I only have about a month before what I currently have becomes essentially useless.

I need to find about $3000 dollars to do it, and I’m kind of out of options.

Once that’s taken care of, I can coast and pay bills until something else breaks.

I will say that the new job is fantastic. The people are good, my employer seems to be going in a good direction and they’re clearly growing. I did have to take a small pay cut with this job, only about 3%, but I like the job a lot more, and I’m dropping about 3-4k/yr in expenses. The previous job didn’t pay for parking near the office and didn’t have a parking lot for employees to use. The new job is also WFH, so most of the savings are from gas and parking. In a way, I’m taking more money “home” at the end of the day. Definitely a positive move, but I’m still stuck with a lot of credit card and other debts from my time unemployed, so I’m having difficulty keeping everything paid.

Hopefully I find some money to replace that equipment, and I can settle into a routine to pay back all the losses from being unemployed.
