Yes, I'm whining again and need some kind words
Y'all, if something doesn't give soon, I'll be selling everything and moving in with my parents in Portland. I've never lived in Portland and don't really relish the thought of a new city (I get lost very easily) and trying to find a job in a market that's totally unfamiliar to me. That, and I'd have to leave my daughter behind in Ohio. She's in college.

My cats will have a terrible time, especially the 13 year old male. He's not adjusting to change well and my parents hate cats.

I just can't believe that at 44 my life would be in such a mess after trying so hard for so long.

Anyone got a hug or two? I just got back from the doctor's office and I had to borrow the money to pay for my daughter's medication (chronic condition). I feel so humiliated and worthless right now.

3. I'm kind of in the same boat. Maybe the next boat over.

:hug:

It's pretty sad that ALL of my problems could be solved with money.

Maybe that means things aren't as bad as I think then?

Sure feels crappy though.

New starts aren't always bad. Good luck, whatever happens!

What sort of work are you looking for?
It seems like you'd do better looking for a job in an area you're familiar with.

7. thank you for replying
tjdee-yes, money would solve all of my short-term problems. I need steady income and benefits. Long-term personal issues are being worked on and the medical issues have been resolved. But as time goes on, my problem is what I can bring to an employer after being so dangerously close to the street and having my confidence so shaken?

I would come limping in, desperate for a paycheck while trying to recover emotionally from all of this. I don't know if I have what it takes anymore to rebound.
