'Tis the Season for Shopping

It's here again, the gift of spending way too much money on stuff none of us need and a few things we do. When common sense goes out the window about over spending. Don't panic. Just know that its about Giving, joy, laughter, and memories. My personal trick to shopping is looking for the best item before I spend a dime and don't shop after 1pm. Have fun!!!

51 jobs in 31 years

Frustration & family can the same word. Should I be using frustration instead of family, probably most of the time. My family has helped. They have helped me with conditions I am ordered to fulfill first. The limitations from my dyslexia are real and yet many around me don't hear me and treat it as I am using it as an excuse. Fifty-One (51) jobs in the last 31 years should scream that the limitation from the dyslexia is REAL. As I keep remembering the other jobs I forgot about, the 51 could increase. So, the frustration & family do get used a lot, because there could be more emotional support and genuine support & advice while HEARING what I'm saying. I have a college degree because of family, I'm sleeping in my car (& not under a bridge) because family, I'm working on this computer because of family, able to read books on my iPad because of family. SO, yes, they have helped me. However, there are other ways I need their help. Actual-Tangible help with getting me lined up on work that I can actually DO and succeed in doing. So, yes, I've asked many many times and not sure what the correct word should be used on the lack of response. Is it their short-coming, not really, its all of us as a team not being able to work together, while speaking the same language so everyone is equally heard. My word choice is different from theirs, so being heard is frustrating for all parties... After digging into my memory banks about all my jobs, the number is actually 48. But none the less still way too many jobs for someone who has struggle with dyslexia.

I'm Still Here

Well, I do seem to ghost my blog from time to time. It gets hard to write, especially all I have is my phone. My computer is fixed and I'm back on track, so to speak, to get an income again. I haven't stopped looking for work. Just facing the fact that my Dyslexia has been affecting my ability to get and hold down jobs. Multitasking isn't my friend and never has been. So, that means no customer service jobs. And my feet are keeping me from getting jobs that would would put me on them.
