Guest guest Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Well, in addition to the pain that I have to deal with every day, I was told earlier this week that my assignment on this job (contract work) will be over as of Monday, March 31st, so now I have to job hunt again. Putting yourself out there is just so freaking hard when I can hardly stand up to walk across the room to shake hands with an interviewer, and I know that there are plenty of healthy, perky 30 somethings waiting to interview for the same job! It just scares the hell out of me. Of course, the additional heaping helping of stress doesn't do the pain conditions any good nor the sleep problems! Of course, if you can't get to sleep at all, who needs to worry about apnea, right?!?!? I am really hoping and praying that I can have the strength to get out there and do this again (this job only lasted a year!), and that this time I will be able to find something as a full-time payroll employee with benefits. Not having any insurance really sucks and is very stressful, too! I really need to find something I could do from home so I can be there for my Dad who is almost 96. He does ok most days, but it really scares me to think of what could happen while I'm gone during the day! OK, a full-time position with full benefits that I can do from home! Gee, I don't ask for much do I??? Say a prayer for me, please! Paine To contribute to my book, please contact me at fibrobook@...

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 > , I'm so sorry to hear about your job. I will be facing that in about a year and I'm 57. I'm a Nanny and I'm needed for just so long. And it is getting harder and harder to chase after little ones. I can only climb stairs one at a time too. Ugh. I know how you feel about your Dad. My husband and I live with my Mom who will be 97 in July. I am so freaked out about leaving her on her own as she has no short term memory and I'm scared she's gonna burn down the house or something. Take care of yourself and good luck. Hugs, /Mi p.s. I have been wanting to tell you I love your name. It sounds like an authors name!! Very pretty.
