Leeanne - just wanted to add my good wishes to the above, hang in there things somehow always work out, you just can't always control the how and when, but I'm confident you will find a better job situation soon. Your teenagers will grow up, we've been through some issues as well with our kids, and they are now grown, married, having kids of their own, except our youngest daughter who is struggling with infertility issues herself, and that has been a challenge for she and her husband as well as me the Mom, b/c I can't fix it - but they are hanging in there and working thru it.

Joanne - what a really touching story. I think single Moms are amazing, its hard enough to go thru something like that with a husband where you can be there for each other, but to do it alone --- and to keep such a positive attitude, and focus on the good things, you truly have my admiration.
