Fibro & Job Frustration

One of my biggest frustrations in the new year is that I still make the bulk of my money freelancing for various technical and writing companies. I’m grateful to have the work but sometimes it reminds me so much of “Better off Ted” or “The Office”. Suddenly I understand Dilbert cartoons. It’s like all of these things but actually living in such a world is not funny. It’s better than most jobs because I can work from home, set my own hours and diversify. It’s really stressful which makes my fibro worse which makes my job worse which then makes my job worse again.

Even if I eventually make enough money blogging and running my own websites to replace this income I still have to abide by all of the ad networks and affiliates TOS. I like the stability of my current job so I’ll keep it as long as I can handle it and they still want me but part of me is looking for the exit signs even though I know I can’t walk away right now. This is normally fine and would be a lot better than where I’m at. I just suddenly feel so grown up and I don’t think that’s a good thing.
