Life is rougher than it used to be.

Trying to use this walker. But my legs still give up. So getting around is still an issue.

Been trying to do surveys for money, but I am kicked out from more than I do. So they are not really a decent source of money.

Still waiting to hear about my disability. Got $125 a month in food stamps so at least I can eat.
Out of things to sell.

Boy, they didn't say life was going to be this rough at college commencement.

The one thing that was able to count on was my health and the ability to do what needed to be done.
Now I can't. It's a big transition.

If you are trying to work, have you considered ESL tutoring? You can find companies online. Most want college grads. I wish you luck.
