What do i do about taking money from savings vs. credit cards etc.
I have about 25,000 in Mutual accounts and about 5000 in savings. I know this can dwindle fast.
My husband has gone on an interview and is waiting for a call back. I don't imagine he'll be making as much as he did, BUT we do need something for now.
I'm also thinking about refinancing - though i'd hate to i now have about 11 1/2 years left on a 15 year mortgage - thinking of refinancing back to a 30 year mortgage - i know the rates are higher, but it'll reduce our montly bill by about 300.
Also, i'm going to call up my car insurance and drop the insurance down lower - i have alot of insurance out i think 100/300? also, my homeowers policy maybe try and lower that.
What do you all think? I don't want to get into debt - i do have an outstanding credit card balance of about 3000.00 - should i pay it off or call to delay payments. Also pay 140.00 month on a car loan should i just take the money from the mutal accounts and pay that off as well?
I don't want to leave ourselves with no savings either..........
any options

Also I Am Such Such A Worrier But I Feel Like I Must Go For My Kids Sake - We've Planned For So Long - For The Amount I'd Be Getting Back, I Think I Just Need To See Them So So Happy That It Pushes Me To Go On With Whatever I'm Faced In The Future.
Like I Said Dining Is Included So There Won't Be Much We'll Have To Pay For Down In Disney - Hopefully
