I want a freaking house!

I've been looking at some stuff online tonight, and I feel very depressed. I feel like we'll never get a house. With the way the market is right now, we're going to need a hefty chunk of change to get in, and I feel like I'm in this moral delima of figuring out which to put money towards- debt, or savings. I think I'm going to continue to put $1000 a month towards credit cards, but work more aggressivly towards saving money. House and emergency fund are just becoming savings in general, and I'll figure out the other part later.

Bleh. The upside is Hubby was offered big bucks... 10 hour days, 6 days a week. This is huge cash for him. The downside? It's 2.5 hours away, so he's going to stay with a friend. He's been working down there for the last couple weeks and driving home each night, but a 10 hour-day is a lot different than a 8 hour-day, especially when you factor in the driving time. Looks like I'm going to experience single-motherhood, but the upside is I won't be doing much so I should be spending any more money.
