well I failed the A+ essentials exam AGAIN. I keep trying and trying to find a job and nobody EVER calls me back or emails me and I feel totally and completely defeated and I've applied to places like walgreens. I have 2 degrees and no job prospects. I apply and apply and apply and get a grand total of zilch. Husband is currently trying to be supportive but says he will have to teach me about computers.........he is a developer.....and that I shouldn't feel to terribly bad as I don't know anything.

But I do feel badly......I spend all day working with my kids, driving them around, going to the store for food, cleaning, filling orders, shipping packages, doing inventory on peachtree, and going to school meetings(my son has Autism and so do I), researching things relating to nutrition.....and herbs/supplements.

I've helped out doing HR type stuff in husband's company but generally feel totally worthless and depressed. I know I shouldn't but I do....because I have no job skills at all and I feel like I have no future.

the work stay-at-home moms do is worth more than $30,000 per year if it had to be hired out.
