So what is next?

Still recovering from a RSI, I find I'm only spending about 2-3 hours a week using the computer. This does not include using my phone however, which is probably closer to ten hours a week. I spend my time at home, as while I was home recovering, my employer decided that my position could fulfilled by other members of the team. While I'm glad they finally terminated me, I sit here anxiously unsure of my next move. In six days, our mortgage is due. My husband is trying to be upbeat, but I can tell he's gaining in irritability. It's my fault he can't take a day off to rest. Poor guy has just about been working everyday of our marriage (fours years now) with no job that he loves, much less likes, at a much lower pay rate than his intelligence is worth. The job market here is so so. Most listings are for solar sales or service jobs like waiting tables. Its just about impossible to "get in" to a state job (CA). I have bounced around from job to job, trying to stay somewhere for a while but either the pay is awful or I end up bored beyond belief, and when I say bored, I literally mean that I just sit there. I sit at a desk and count away the hours. Dream about places I will never get to go, and things I will never get to do. We have ideas to get ourselves out of the grind, but actually doing them is a whole different story. Nap time.
