My wife has Graves. I would tell you to hang in there but I know that’s not what you want to hear. There is the old God opens a window deal and the new oppertunities line and think outside of the box…. I work in manufacturing and was layed off four times in three years from 2002 to 2005. It’s not fun but it is what it is and the way to get through it is to realize that God always opens a window and there are always new opertunities and you have to think outside the box. We live in Mpls. MN and I drive 45 miles one way to work, no big deal in a large city. I also grew up in a small town where 30 miles is a long way. I filled up the tank this morning at $1.53 a gallon. If the jobs are 30 miles away then drive 30 miles, don’t make a mountain out of a mole hill. Check out the plumbing and industrial suppliers for warehouse and city desk jobs. City desk people that know their stuff are worth their weight in gold. Go to youtube and search EFT, emotional freedom therapy or tapping. Tapping isn’t a cure all but it may help you focuse on staying positive.
