Re-thinking some choices

My hubby and I have both been feeling kind of "down" in our moods lately and we're not sure why. I think we are bummed since we've lived here and been self-employed for almost a year and we're still not making as much as we thought we would. We're making about half of what we need each month. And the other half? You guessed it, coming right out of our savings account. Even though this is what we were saving for, we didn't think we'd have to live on it for this long and we're getting kind of nervous.

Sometimes we wish we would've gotten a cheaper house, but then you never know what work it might have needed. If we decide we can't afford this in a few months, we will have to sell our house, which could take a year or more because that's how long houses are on the market around here. Even if we could sell it, we probably wouldn't get as much as we paid, plus the money we've put in it with updates and making minor repairs. Then where would we move? The only really cheap houses around here are in Berryville and we wouldn't be able to live our current lifestyle with the trolley and walking to town, etc. I have no idea. We're just starting to get worried and a bit stressed out at the moment...
