Work Is Good For The Soul
I am not one who could lay on a beach soaking up the sun every day. I need mental activity to keep me going. I really think that work is good for the soul and inner spirit. We work long hours and I do not mind it. Time off is good, but it is nice to come back to focused activity the generates an income.
Since we had to move I have not done anything with internet marketing. My full thrust has been at selling on Ebay. We are almost at the point where I can start getting back to IM. That extra $800 a month we need is slightly hard to do, but is happening. As we get it zeroed in and can constantly generate that extra, plus a cushion, “just in case”, I will get back to IM.
Actually I am thinking of setting up the laptop at home to work at IM after we quit here. Remember, we arrive at the warehouse between 6:45 and 7:15 every day. We leave between 8:30 and 10:00. We put in a long day here. So trying to do IM at home will be a challenge.
Even the long hours do not feel all that bad. It does not wear me out like overtime at a real job used to do. I can work longer and harder for myself and feel energized. It is a mental thing I guess.
Due to all the bills and expenses other than rent, we are just on the edge of paying all the bills on time. I thought we had both rents covered, but the utilities came due. The car needed an oil change, etc etc. I am almost sure all bills will be paid on time, but it is a squeaker this month.
