Frustrated with hubby's job

Tarra
Humbug. My husband works in the oil field which means he's gone a lot. It seems like he's only home if I'm at work sometimes. Well with oil prices dropping his hours have gotten cut as well his pay. So now he's has to be gone all the time to make any money, but even then he's making a third of what he was. We just bought a house and were planning on starting to try to get pregnant at the end of the summer. Well now financially we don't feel like it's a good time to have a baby. Plus he's gone all the time and they won't approve his vacation days. I have baby fever so bad, but then I think of the reality of our life and it makes me really sad. I almost want to not have kids because he is gone all the time. I don't want to raise our kids by myself. Plus with his pay cut I've been having to work extra hours at my job to make up some of the pay gap which means I am working 55-65 hours a week. I don't want our kids to spend 75% of their life in day care. I'm just really bummed out because I hate my husbands job. It's really unstable his hours are always changing and his pay sucks right now. But he really enjoys his job and likes the company and the guys he works for so I try to just shut up and be supportive, but it's hard. I want him to think about the future and how hard this makes it to have kids and stability. Ok. I'm done now. I will always support my husband, I just wanted to let some whining out. Shout out to all of the oil field wives that put up with crazy hours and the military wives who have it way harder than the rest of us!
