I have kind of a funny story about Walmart. Back during the historic floods of 2011 here in Central New York, I got stranded and couldn't get home because every road was either completely washed out, or covered in water, or had already been closed. After trying several different ways, I gave up and decided to head back to the city I work in and stop at the Walmart to get a car charger for my cell phone. Once I got there I figured that I would just stay for awhile, give it some time and the water would go down and I would be able to get home. It continued to rain non-stop over night and I ended up spending the night in the Walmart parking lot in my car. Made three trips in, chatted with the cashiers, bought food, a book, a blanket. I dozed some, still haven't finished the book I bought and started reading that night. Ended up going in the store again in the morning and buying change of clothes and then found a different way back to work since the road was closed where a creek had went over it's bank and had flooded the south side of the city. Made it back to work, worked till mid afternoon then had to take the long way home, 1 1/2 hours to get there with this route, because many of the roads that I normally drove on were still closed. I was so glad to get home.

Anyway - I'm sorry to hear of your struggles with your homework. Maybe try for 20 minutes on the deck? Baby steps.
