I am 66, have raised my son alone (now 27 with Aspergers). I am intelligent, computer literate, and sit at home all day (rural village) with nothing to do except the evening meal (and read Mumsnet).
I have become aware that volunteers are needed in the nearest town for a Homeless Project and I have been told I would be exceptionally welcome and my skills can be put to good use.
However, AIBU to feel really nervous of doing this because I have not 'worked' for so long and have lost my confidence? I used to mix well and be a friendly person, but have gone into my shell somewhat over my years at home. Please boost my confidence and tell me I really can do this!
