Asking Personal Questions

I'm babysitting. I qualify for disability. I haven't got a check yet this year. I was only given money last year. I was looking for work but I haven't nailed a job. I want to work, and there is help out there for me, but I still haven't got paid and I feel like I should hold off until I get some money. That's just my logic for a better life right now. Would you work now or wait, like I decided to?
