Get Selfish...I tried that just last week...seeking a ride to the train station on Wed and return on Sat. No go!

Income, yes it is inadequate...I was sitting in my car just today thinking about giving up my car and the car payment I can't afford...then returning to riding the county para/senior transport, but I don't think I am really ready to do that. But, I can't complain too loud about income. My daughter and her husband own my townhouse and I pay a portion of the mortgage, which I do appreciate them doing.

Atlon...thanks for the offer, but I am not a spiritual person to begin with. Been there, done that.

Stephan, you said "I really think you should find out what pleases YOU, and then pursue it. It may be your scientific interests, and you may get in touch woth people sharing the same interests." I am already involved in the Parkinson's disease community in just this way. My scholarship was based on this involvement.

As I said in the beginning, just venting...once in a while I do need to holler a bit and know someone is listening. I am not out of the woods depression-wize this week , but I am coming along. See Dr.Jim on Thursday. There I can truly vent.

Thank you all for listening and commenting. It is always helpful.

I do believe in my signature quote, but just as many of us, I can dish it out...helping, etc...I just can't always live it!
