WORKING FROM HOME AND HEALTH BENIFITS

I HAVE BEEN WORKING A 40 HR WORK WEEK FOR THE PAST 9 MONTHS SINCE BEING DIAGNOSED WITH THE FIBRO, AND ITS GETTING TO BE TOO MUCH. I HAVE AN HOUR DRIVE TO AND FROM WORK EVERYDAY, ALONG WITH STRESS AND NO TIME TO MYSELF ANYMORE. THROUGH ALL OF THIS I TRY TO DEAL WITH THE AWFUL PAIN AND EXHAUSTION ALL THE TIME. I THINK IT WOULD BE MUCH BETTER IF I TRY TO WORK FROM HOME. I WAS CONSIDERING EBAY, CRAFT SHOWS, CONSIGNMENT, ETC. IF I LEAVE MY PRESENT JOB I WILL LOSE MY HELATH BENIFITS AND DON'T KNOW IF I COULD AFFORD THEM ON MY OWN. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY SUGGESTIONS OR WOULD ENJOY HEARING FROM PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED A SIMILIAR SITUATTION. THANK YOU!

    I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

    A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
