Hi Frank; Good Luck. I'm in a similar situation in that it's getting harder to make a livable income in my career field (photofinishing). I'm thinking of getting out, but am not sure what I would do. As others have reminded you, you do have the education to open some doors for you. One of the truisms I have found in life is that while accidents may happen, nothing major in my life happens by accident. Finding the next step is often being willing to be open to it. You are lucky in that the list seems to be a good support system, and support is always helpful when going through major change.
