MY HUSBAND HAS BEEN STUDYING FOR 3 YEARS TO GET HIS RN AND WE ARE FINALLY AT THE END. OUR CASH FLOW HAS BEEN VERY TIGHT TO SAY THE LEAST. NOW WE ARE ALMOST OVER THE STRESS SEEMS TO HAVE MOUNTED UP AND I´M EXPERIENCING ALL SORTS OF PAINS IE STOMACH PROBLEMS, BACK ACHE, HEADACHES. COULD SOMEONE PLEASE JUST GIVE ME A FEW WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT SO THAT I CAN GET THESE NEXT 4 MONTHS OVER WITH?

Aww, it sounds like you have been doing a great job. It's almost over. Do you work? Give yourself a pat on the back for all your hard work and sacrifices.

JEWISHMAMA - Try not to worry too much about the money situation. I'm a chronic worrier (even though I'm a happy person!!) my husband always sees me worrying about stuff and he always says - tell me what's wrong, I'll worry for you... But that only helps to an extent!! You have to change your attitude about it. What I do is this - sit down and think about everything - worry about it for a few minutes and then stand up and say to yourself - "that's it, I worried about it and there's nothing more I can do". Money is money - it causes worries, but health is everything. It's ok to be in debt but as long as you have your health - everything's ok. Thank g-d your husbands ok and will im yirtzeh hashem earn a good living soon.. It's hard but the wait is almost over!!

thanks for your support. I do work as a secretary half day in a garage. I work for a family that has known me for over 20 years and I know that if I need anything they are there. I guess it´s really not so bad but I just needed to vent, so I really appreciate your input.

That's what this site is all about (no ?! ) It's nice to meet people from so far away and from such a different culture!!! Might come visit you one day, I always thought of Gibraltar as a very romantic place??

Off the coast of Spain, but it belongs to Great Britian. Very popular holiday destination for the British (Jews). A nice opportunity for them to see the sun.

I know someone who married a boy from Gibralter about 5 years ago.
Btw, if you need money, there are lending gmachs. they probably have no interest.

What do you mean, they "probably" don't have interest? They certainly don't charge interest - it's assur min haTorah. Besides, that's the whole point of a gemach, to lend money without interest.

Thanks, technic. We are schvitzing here - 77° and humid here now, going up to 87°. No sign of any relief in sight, either.
