Future Career

I know - it just terrifies me to be this short of money for such a long time. And have to deal with being at school with such babies again. I know that's not fair, but neither am I.

I'd rather work and earn and study on the side. I'm terrified by being on benefits, or at the whim of Govt payments. What if the Tories get in at the next election? Boris shows the way the wind is blowing... My parents taught me that fear, probably because when they grew up the Welfare State was in its infancy. I have tried to overcome it, but I'll never be able to work the system as well as some. Deserving people I mean - I'm not yet that indoctrinated in the ways of the Daily Express

And I'll always be a worrier.

Just that one hour session last week did open my eyes as to possible futures though. How much I would love earning a living wage, at something I enjoy (maybe not every single day - I am realistic), coming home to Diz, maybe driving a car again, going to the supermarket and not having to keep a mental tally - unless it's just to keep my mind active. It would be wonderful. I see that Cherry in my future now, I really do. And I'm glad I have another 4 sessions. And support, here.
