Yeah, rural and small town life can be tough. I know. Besides us, there are lots of other great support sites around as well. Renee Reyes has been through it all, starting in a small town. Her site is very good and has lots of very hard won advice. Just google her and you will find her. She has good links to other good sites, too. Classy lady.
You might also want to talk to Sarah. She is way further into this than you are so far, and is doing it from a very rural town in the south. Bless her heart, if anyone can relate to small town it will be Sarah. She is funny, too.
(Are you listening, Sarah?)
