ok i found 2 jobs that i can work...so im thinking of taking both of them cuz i need them. but then i can start school wednesday but i wont have even half that money to give to them yet, so im thinking of tellin them to put me on the list for october. now if i work both those jobs i wont have time to see my kids either...so im way lost on what to do.

my mom says get the jobs and do the schooling...then i'd never see the kids. but maybe if i get a job during the morning...have the afternoons for me and the kids..cuz my schoolings at night. idk idk idk.:thinking im so stressing.

What about loans? Are you married? Have you looked into what benefits you have w/ a deployed husband?

How old are your kids? If they are still very young then they won't really remember you being gone so often and school is definitely something that will help their future as well. Or have you thought about taking online classes?? Then you could work both jobs and still be at home with your kids. Thats what I do.

ok this is a sticky situation...im seperated(been for a yr)...but not legally. as soon as the ex gets back from korea hes gonna turn the divorce papers in, cuz he kept makin a lot of excuses why he couldnt while he was there, tho hes the one that wanted the divorce and still does.

i talked to the lady about financial aid and she said i could probably get that..but not for the class that i'd take for CNA since its not half a year. so in other words i'd have to find more classes to take with that to get them.

and im not sure how to find out about the last part. "Have you looked into what benefits you have w/ a deployed husband?"

theyre 2 and 1 years old. and the school if your a new student wont let you take online classes for some reason...but im thinkin of asking them about it again. cuz it would be so much easier for me.

An army wife I was just talking to today said she is going to community college for free while her husband is deployed. If that's not a sweet deal, I don't know what is! :freakout If your divorce isn't final, I would see if you could still try to get some sort of aid.
