Same here.  What I do is use Ada on any stand-alone project that I can.
It's not much, and it's not using the language to its full potential,
but it's all I have at the moment.  Sigh.

On the bright side, an Ada program I wrote for my last company is still
chugging away (it was a database specification compiler, and I just
*happened* to have a bunch of compiler writing Ada components on hand).
At least, they haven't taken advantage of my "Free Support for One Year"
offer yet.

cheers,
Fraser.
