I have been off work for a little over a month and I feel like I am going to loose my mind! Every morning when I get up I make my husbands Coffee and lunch and come here to the computer do all my paid to clicks and survey sites and come her to My Lot in between doing those sites and it seems like it is taking me forever to get any kind of pay from any of them!! Then when I have the time to be here I can;t think of a thing to start any discussions about or even when I go to my intrests!! I can't think of anything to say to the responses it always happens!! Any suggestions out there? I have even tried Triond but my earnings there are only 4 cents so far. 
I would much rather be here but the brain frezzes always happen when I have tine to be here!!! Urrg!! I am going to go crazy here!! My husband gave me a little money yesterday and told me I don;t like to see you bothered like that so go make shopping L.O.L. That's the way he says it, but any way so I just went to the grocery store and the dollar store but I felt so lonely and sad when I went what is the deal? What can I do?

Since I work in a school, I have summers off. However, by the second week, I am going CRAZY
. I do enjoy having some time off, but 2.5 months for summer is too much for me. I don't have a ton of money to spend and I'm more likely to spend money to keep myself busy the more time I have off. I know that some educators would beg to differ and maybe I would think differently if I had children. I enjoy working and enjoy a break from time to time, but not a really long break. So, this summer I am going to nanny, which I am excited about. I am only on MyLot from time to time and like to respond to discussions, but I know I am not going to get rich from this site. Good Luck to you!

I see what you needed sweetie was a break, try as hard as you can to not think too hard about the situation. Easier said then done but by thinking and dwelling on it, it causes you to get stressed and frustrated.
I hope you do feel a bit better by now.

I try every day not to think about things and it is difficult but today I took a break and cleaned a room in the house and re decorated it that so needed to be done, didn't get to finish it all though but it did take my mind off of things!! Thanks for your response and concerns that was sweet of you thank you again and have a great day!

I felt that way for some time especially being home for 5 yrs. I really missed working. I do look forward to working even if it's only part time but it's my socializing IRL besides the social sites online.

That's a difficult situation to be in by the sounds of things. I'm also trying to make some kind of income and I have articles published on Triond as well as Helium and I also enjoy responding to discussions here on My Lot. It's very difficult to make a significant income online and it's a matter of pennies that I see and that's it. In terms of creating new discussions on My Lot I'm finding this a challenge so mainly I concentrate my efforts on responding to others!
I suggest you take a little break away from the computer and do something that you enjoy, for me this is regular cycling! I take a short break away from my computer and this really gives me some breathing space. I enjoy the fresh air and the breeze as it caresses my face and it's a really nice experience. I have no idea what would take your fancy though. Whatever you do though you will experience some kind of release and when you return to your computer you may find yourself coming up with new ideas, it works for some people. I really wish you luck with your plans and hope that it works for you. Andrew

If I could afford it, I would love to take a month off work. There are so many things that I would like to do with that time. If you want to make friends, I can recommend a site called www.interpals.net, where you can find penfriends from all over the world. Do you have any offline hobbies such as reading, sewing, gardening, crafts? I would enjoy doing those if I had time off work. Do you plan to go back to work in the future?
