Hello everybody,
The purpose of this post is to let off some steam, put my worries and frustration on digital paper and take a step back, breath in and keep going. Also, to hear some valuable advice from you guys who I'm sure were stuck in similar downtrends.
My situation in life at the moment:
So I just had my second surgery today(1/14/19)on my left knee of an ACL reconstruction, Meniscal tear, and some bone chip thing that does not allow me to put any pressure on my knee for 6 weeks and full recovery 6-8 months. AKA I can't work
Bills are due, my wife works and gets paid but she will have to take care of all of us and work at the same time. She jokingly says that she is now a single mother with 3 kids(including me) and a dog.
However, we both are worried as to how we will pay the bills and keep our sanity. I am a very positive guy most of the time and I never let myself to excuses and try to make the best use of any situation. Naturally being a believer in God allows me to worry 10x less and complain 10x less. But this time I'm stuck. I have this drive and passion to start making money online, but I am very easily getting distracted by all the things that are going on.
What I am currently doing to try and make money
- Using my time to go through an accelerated bachelors in computer program science to learn to code.
- Finding ways I can use my knowledge based skill and offer a service to sell
- Buying and Selling stuff
- Applied for "workers disability" in November and waiting for response in march
Hope your day is better than mine,
-Royce
