As I sit here using my computer to pass the time I can't help but feel like there must surely be something I could be doing that would be both productive and income earning. While I am recouperating from my injuries and unable to walk without crutches employment options are extremely limited if not nonexistant.
I have computer skills which I could put to use for someone, but am unable to drive right now. Even just riding in a vehicle is both painful and impractical for me. Ideally, a telecommute situation would be fantastic. But those positions are rare. I am trying to brush up on programming skills, but without an actual project or prospect it's quite dull.
I suppose right now I am simply bored, broke, and feeling somewhat less than useful. I am accustomed to staying busy and am basically just bored to tears. This is really to be expected for someone in my situation. I guess I'm just giving voice to my current mood through my blog. Hardly anything interesting for a reader but good to get out.
Currently my day consists of bed, recliner, sitting in the porch swing on the lanai, computer time, tv, and naps. Occassionally I take a ride around on the electric scooter just to get a little sun. Very exciting, don't you think? To be honest, I can't complain. I could have easily been killed in the wreck, and of course there are a great many people far worse off than I am. But still, when one is used to being busy all of the time and then is suddenly extremely idle, one can can't help but feel a bit lost and bored.
I am thankful that I wasn't killed or injured even worse than I was. I am also thankful that I have a place to stay during my recovery time. It would just be nice to have something productive to do with this time.
