[blparent] Long overdue update and request for help?

[Pipi]

Sure I can explain. I have RP. I have lost a significant amount of my 
vision recently. I'm at a point where I am no longer able to rely on my 
vision, yet I lack confidence in being a blind person. My job is a dead 
end job as in I'm a live in Nanny. The kids I currently care for are 
reaching an age where they no longer require care. So while I could stay 
ehre and hold out with this job for another year maybe 2, then I'm 
unemployed,    CCB without messing with her schooling.
So yes, I will be leaving my jjob to go to CCB

>> Hey y'all,
>> I am finally settled back down after a fun and full summer and am able to check my email and get caught up again.
>> I've switched from a desktop to a laptop and from win xp to win 7 so i've not been able to read my emails and such for the past 2 months. I was stressed enough transitioning that I just did a mass delete here. I hope that I haven['t missed too much.
>> Savannah and I had a wonderful summer. We spent a week in San Diego which is an absolutely beautiful place. I'd love to live there. Savannah started swim lessons this summer and passed level 1. We also took our first train ride to visit friends in Illinois. We had such a great time that we ended up extending our trip and stayed just shy of 3 weeks. We will also be going back for Halloween. It was a much needed trip and break from reality.
>> Savannah has started preschool. She loves it. It is great to see her thriving and getting the social interaction that she has needed.
>> I am working on attending the Colorado Center for the Blind. I have a tentative start date of January. I'm currently struggling to find affordable preschool or daycare with a preschool curriculum for Savannah. I will be leaving my job behind for the 6 to 9 months that I will be at the center so I am unable to afford the going rates.
>> Does anyone know of any scholarships, financial aid, or resources for paying for a safe and healthy place for Savannah to be while I get the training that I need?
>> I've considered trying to start fund raising myself by selling bottled water or such outside of Walmart and the likes. The average cost of preschool or daycare in Littleton is $900 a month.
>> Any help y'all could give me would be so greatly appreciated.
>> I hope all are well and I can't wait to catch up with people again.
>> Oh also, if I had your contact information before, can you please send it to me off list at blahblahblah at iampipi.com I've lost everything in my computer transition.
>> Thanks again,
>> Pipi
