Mobile break..

I am working online from 11 AM and till now. It is 2PM here. In between I just got up to have my lunch and give lunch to my mom in law in her room. She is having low BP since yesterday afternoon and so is confined to bed since yesterday. It was scary yesterday but now she has stabilized. I do not want her or her nurse help to come out of room as she can not be left alone or unattended for a moment. It has been long 3 hours on screen with a 30 minute break in between. I had a fulfilling day as I earned well with few surveys today. I wanted to stay longer online but my body seems to have enough. I have to go and pick up my daughter in another half an hour. I will attend to my mom in law till evening so that the attendant can take nap for few hours. She might have to be awake in night to look after her and so I want her to be fully rested before that. I allowed her to sleep late till 10 in the morning while my husband attended my mom in law before leaving for office. So we are taking turns so that every one gets enough rest. I have to cook dinner in the evening and take my daughter for her keyboard class. So I will catch you up late in the evening while I wait for her outside her class. I have a pile of notifications to be done but I will let them wait. I will listen to my body, leave the screen and go around the house tidying up few things and folding the laundry before I leave to pick up my daughter. I need to be mobile now. Hope to catch you later. How is it going at your end??

A lot of things at your end. Have rest too. What all survey sites do you visit? I would want to give it a try but have never done. Can you suggest me some that works?

You are doing double duty. I have not too much responsibilities. My son is living in Delhi. My wife is teacher and posted at 150 Km from my residence. She is doing daily up down. Me and my daughter is living is house at day time. I spend 2 -3 hours on computer. I can't work more because of my health problem. You are doing great.

I hope your mom feels better soon. It's good to get away from the computer for a break several times a day.

Yes taking turns is a wise thing to do so that everyone gets enough rest and can do other stuff too. She is doing well and we should be bringing her back home by tomorrow evening.
