Too much grief!

I'm already grieving losing the third job since 2002, due to MS, and now going on disability. Because I am no longer employed, I have picked up some volunteering (as I said, church, and elementary school. Also, a couple of nursing homes.) And, I'm active in church in other ways as well; we have a lot of support there.

Taking classes is not in our budget, with our now reduced income, and 2 kids in college next year. Also, I just can't hardly justify taking classes that cannot lead to furthering a career that no longer exists.
