Hello, Justmom!

• I'm sorry you got fired. That hurts.
• I'm glad you got fired early in your employment there. A job that would have had you constantly tied in internal knots is more trouble than it's worth.

Raising your children was a magnificent success! I don't know how you translate that into current income, but the success is real and your present circumstances in no way diminish the accomplishment.

If in the USA, have you spoken with the 2-1-1 (United Way/AIRS) people? Were they of any help?
