Doing a bit better this morning. I think I spent way too long on the forms yesterday. I think I am going to call the state today and try to have someone walk me through them, they are just so complcated. And it's hard. Hubby made $6000 more in 2017 (on the tax returns as well) because he did a summer program for teacher's of disadvantaged schools at Lamar University in Beaumont (hence how he got to know the department and professors pulling for him there). That paid $5000. He thought the job there was his this fall, and it never happened. He also got nearly $1000 (I think around $800) for the state pushing teachers to get certified to teach computer science (though I don't even think his high school offers that or if they do, just a couple of sections). Most people ignored it, but hubby is very smart; he took the grade 6-12 computer science certification and passed it (which I believe cost around $200 for the test). So he is certified to teach grades 6-12 composite science, math (which according to him was a very hard exam to pass), and computter science. Still doesn't help him with getting a job.

My BIL's aunt gave the the name of a person working for JSC (NASA). She doesn't know if they are hiring or have positions there, but I am going to do my best to track him down and ask about it.
