I was kind of wondering how you were keeping all your responsibilities together. You're under a huge strain and are doing an unbelievable amount of work and coping. Some cracks are gonna show. However, you have a route clear to a better place. You're doing all you can not to bring the bugs when you move and even if you do, you will have more control and greater chance of success in a single family home (or so I believe). So you've really tackled a lot of the big problems. Now it's just getting through the day-to-day s$%t until you finally come to a more peaceful place in your life, which you made happen through your planning & prep.

Courage, Angie. You'll get out of this mess.

Angie, I am some one that COMPLETELY understands what you are going through when it comes to the kids. I am a mother of 3 children. My kids are now 3yrs old, and twins of 18 months. We found out about our infestion when the twins were just 8 months old.
Yes, the stress can be unbearable, and doing things "just right" is not always possible. First, please take a step back and look at all you have accomplished already! From your previous posts, I find you most amazing and a very very strong woman. I congragulate you andgive you big virtual HUGS for all you have done!!!!
I'm sorry your husband isn't to supportive right now, but maybe at days end and a few serious conversations that will change. You won't be in this mess forever.
To help with the children situation, some one wise once told me..when the stress level gets too high just sit down with your kids and hug them, play with them for a few. (thanks Nomo ;) It's at those high levels of stress that they need it most and so do you. Just stop what you're doing for a minute, whatever that may be, sit down and play, spend some time. This will release some of the stress from you and also from the kids. They feed off our emotions.
Angie, you'll get thru this and I know that you know that. Someday you'll look back as if it was just a really bad dream. I'm patting you on the back and giving you a big hug for support. Good work and best wishes. -
Angie, Ny child is long grown,but let me say I can't even imagine goung through this with 3 children,or shoukd I say 4? Hubby's not to supportive and that sucks as well,but you have accomplished SO much with so little I'm in awe as well.I know how hard it must be to make sure everyone gets taken care of and the BB problem as well.You're doing an awesome job!They will appreciate it once they have matured(all 4 of them). HUG
