Hello Internet,
Times are tough, and I am getting pulled into a hundred different directions. To try and sort out all of this chaos in my head, I think I'll vent on here for a bit. And why not? No one is reading anyway.
Right now, Noodle and I hemmorhage about $1,000 a month on her income alone. I have been trying to make that up where I can, but it is difficult (impossible) for me to keep a conventional job right now. Between Kangaroo being a baby and Monkey's chemo, I just do not have a schedule that would allow for consistent hours.
There are work from home options, but most of those are side hustle things. They won't provide enough income comparable to the amount of work and effort that is required to put into them. I am currently trying to get a job that allows for an open schedule, but I find those difficult to find, and I've never liked job hunting to begin with.
There are more education positions opening up, but even should I manage to get one, that doesn't mean that there is a daycare position open for Malcolm or that there is a daycare that we can afford. Noodle is doing her best, but she is holding on by a thread, and I am worried about her mental health as much as I am worried about my own.
I have looked into other ways to support us, but nothing is concrete, and I am running myself ragged trying to get somewhere. It is a lot of movement without any progress, and I am wearing thin.
Cancer sucks.
Sincerely,
RWS
P.S.
