Burn out

Today I have realized how burned out I feel from life and the internet.
Due to appointments, and then vacation later this month, I likely will not be here as much.
Some of the sites I visit are being glitchy, including myLot, and that is tiresome as well.
So I know I have not been here a lot lately, and if it is less, do not worry. I will always come back here.
I will try to check in at least once a day.
Today, I just do not seem to have a voice, or anything to say.
Bob and I had a really nice ride, which I needed. We discovered or rediscovered some things we can do for fun.
I think fun is what is missing in my life.

There are a few things that do keep me from fun. I am just finding the internet is not fun at this time.

As you know, we all get burnt out from being online to earn. I have also been experiencing some glitches (here and on another site I use.)
Take some time to yourself and prepare for your vacation later in the month. I am hoping the weather will be nice for you. Go out and have fun! Maybe you can stockpile some pictures and little anecdotes to show us later, like you used to.

@GardenGerty Oh, I've felt that way before. Deleted several discussions before anyone could see them as well. I've not had a boring time lately (have been going out and enjoying the areas around me) but I haven't been talking about them either. Mostly because I don't have pictures to show with them.

We spent a solid year trying to solve a medical mystery that involved five ER trips. Two hospitalizations. Right now I am needing to find a job, or hear from the school or find a work from home income. We got medical bills to pay off now that he is better. Two doctor appointments for him this week.

@crazyhorseladycx Thank you dear. I am sorry for all you lost. Did you ever find out a solution for your problems? When we found the right doctor, he solved the entire situation in two visits.

It will be very good, when it is time. Meanwhile I want to make some things to give to my grand children.

Take care and always a little time for yourself a day so you don't get burnt out, okay? Glad you're going on vacation soon so you can refuel! Enjoy your vacation!

@oahuwriter I am on Medicare, so is hubby. He now gets Tri Care, which is Veterans and military insurance. We "qualify" for Medicaid, but made too much money they year they are basing things on. Must "spend down" 10,000 dollars of overage. Shoot, if we could do that, we would not need medicaid.

@GardenGerty
I hope all goes well for you. If you qualify maybe Medicaid or Medicare can help?

I am enjoying getting some things done away from the computer and that is major.

I am hoping to. I am needing to figure out some financing, too. We are working on some payment plans for medical bills.

I really need to figure this out. I probably have more fun here than on other sites. I just feel like I must be boring right now.

Fun, what is fun? I hear you and now that June is already here I am definitely getting out at least several times a week just to enjoy the beach, the river and try to find some fun. Hope you too discover fun. If you let me know which way you're heading and if it would be possible perhaps we could meet somewhere halfway and compare notes.

I am needing to do some real earning while I am here. I admire how hard you write and take care of yourself. Yes, I do need to get outside and sometimes just relax. Maybe barbecue.

I felt like I didn't have much to say on Friday so I wasn't on here. Also on Friday it stormed with no rain here, but in other parts of town there was hail and wind. I was mostly researching cat food and shoes this past weekend.

I get tired of saying so much of the same thing over and over. I need to look at others' discussions more.

When I realize that the "work sites" I am on are just pennies and not so much fun. Here is fun, but I am not contributing anything new and different or of value right now. Rain, Mow, clean, etc.
