Can you talk to Brenda and tell her she needs to show up unless you personally call and cancel? You don't have to give her any reason if you don't want to.<BR/>Can you husband work AT the library? My library hires people (mostly seniors, stay at home moms with older children and high school kids) to shelve books and check books in and out. I don't think they pay much more than minimum wage but it's better than nothing.<BR/>Looking for work online is not productive. reaching out to friends and former co-workers and going in person to apply is the best way to find a job.<BR/>As for your husband going to stay with his mother for awhile, I think that's a great idea. He has promised to do work for her that he hasn't completed, right? What better way to do that than for him to stay there for a week or two. or three. Or more.<BR/>Frankly, if I were in your position I would pack hubby's suitcase with enough clothes for a few weeks and send him off to his mom. I'd do it calmly, without anger, but I would explain that I need a break and that maybe some time apart would give him a better perspective on how to move forward with his life.<BR/>Good luck to you. I sympathize with you for having to put up with a mentally husband. My brother-in-law has ruined quite a few family occasions with his paranoia and hostility and jealousy of my husband's successful career and our happy life together. mental illness is a total bummer, especially if the person in question refuses to even see a doctor to be evaluated.Miz Kizzlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05650747741395559803noreply@blogger.com
