This is likely because I love my day job, and I've been working - even during parts of the summers - since we got to go back to in-person schooling.
But now I have a sprained knee, and these take forever to heal. I've been out of work since February 26th (now March 16), and I hope to return soon. I've taken steps (not literally, because I sprained my knee - a torn MCL) toward going back to work because the injury coincided with my annual recertification by the Department of Transportation.
My own doctor's clinic has written me a note that says I've been taking my meds and using my CPAP, there is a bullet point on my to-do list to make an appointment with the DOT-approved doctor, and I can now walk around without crutches as long as I wear the brace and don't have far to go.
So far, so good.
But even if I return to the same routes I had before I hurt myself (which is unlikely; I'm not sure I'm up to that yet and other drivers have taken those routes for me), that's only about six hours a day, and I need more work. I do still have a Bachelor of Science in Intercultural Communications, I can spell and punctuate, etc., etc.
I just want a part-time, remote, writing or editing position that nets me 5-20 hours a week of work. And maybe paychecks that are more frequent than once a month; this is the one downside to working for public schools for me.
Any hits?
