Hi there fed up, sounds like you have reached the end of your rope… reach out to your friends and family for some comfort , there are times in our lives where we feel the whole world is against us , or someone has placed a spell on us … as hard as it can be when one cannott find work try not to be be discouraged , perhaps if you volunteer for awhile , it’s amazing when one is back in the stream of things what one hears about jobs that are available ,at least you will feel usefull again..
and do talk to people , sitting home feeling miserable as of course one does when things seem to all be going wrong, perk yourself up again , get in that car or on that bus and look around , you might just see an add for someone with your skills or hear something , the local library is a good scource of information. place an add for ironing or baby sitting , dog walking ,until something worthy of your skils comes along as in time I’M SURE IT WILL…. (((((hugs)))))
thank you for comment much appreciated

Hang in there friend; it will get better!
Fed up. I am so sorry that you feel so down. You need to look back at your life and be happy that you raised good children. You have good friends, so you need to feel good about yourself. You are 50, and you still have to work, so “Get up, get dressed, and put lipstick on”. There are many things you can do, Lani mentioned some. There are also temporary employment agencies. You may need to retrain and there may be money available to do that. Hone your skills, and you need to stay positive, or you won’t get a job that is available. You may have to relocate. I have done that in the past. Keep thinking of what you can do. Childcare, pays more than you may think. I don’t know you, but selling make up or some other product may work for you and you may enjoy it.
