I never do this. But recently it feels like the whole world is falling all over me. My husband had a bunch of strokes last year which have rendered him disabled in several ways, one of the most prevalent being dementia/ amnesia. Think 50 First Dates. Because of that, i cant work. I have to be here for him most hours of the day. We've had no luck so far with disability, and now the hospital is after us for what his insurance didn't cover. Even paying our monthly bills is getting near impossible. So i guess I'm asking, if anyone has a moment, could you please put a prayer in for us? Life is tough already. It seems like it's worse every day. He's a ghost of the man I once knew, and now I have very little ability to pay for our very humble life. Not praying for a million bucks, just a chance to stay in the home we raised our kids and got married in, and the ability to keep the lights on. Thank you, and God bless.

Prayers going up! If you have time to work from home some, I have a list of some resources to look for remote work if you're interested. Might not work for you, but I thought I'd put it out there for you. Happy to send if needed.
Yes ty
Okay, here's a good starting point for you.
https://weworkremotely.com/remote-jobs/search - Under the Categories option at the top of the page, you can choose to see whatever catagory you're interested in.
https://www.thepennyhoarder.com/wfh/ - This site is a great resource. They used to vet the job postings too. Not sure if they still do, but I can't imagine not.
https://www.flexjobs.com/remote-jobs - Love the layout of this site because it makes searching specific categories super easy.
https://powertofly.com/jobs/ - This site tends to be more heavy technical and IT roles, but there are customer service and sales options to check out.
https://www.ziprecruiter.com/Jobs/Online-Remote - Make sure to choose the fully remote option versus in-person remote.
You can also search Indeed for remote work - just enter remote or telecommute in for the location, then add the type of job to the search. Craigslist is usually more scammy stuff than legit remote jobs, so please be careful there if you choose to use it.
Hope this helps a bit! I'm also more than happy to review your resume if that's also helpful. I'm a COO and have managed HR depts for years.
Would love to hear how you're doing later and if you were able to find some work. Please keep in touch.
