I work?
You give me too much credit. I guess technically I do work, I am a in home caregiver, I get paid to stay at home and watch my sister in law and Mother in law who are both mentally challenged. I think that is the politically correct word to us. My Sister in law had a brain tumor when she was little and although she is 34 has the mentality of a 8 year old. And my Mother in Law had a motorcycle accident and has a TBI, so she needs supervised. I stay at home, watch them, and post on RPOL. The wife goes to school full time getting her social workers degree, and does extreme couponing and sells bundles of items on Facebook Marketplace to bring in extra cash. I worked in the Security Industry since I was 17, I'm 36 now. I stopped working 2 years ago when we moved to Ohio because the cost of living was getting way out of hand in Austin Texas. My Mother in law had a house up here in Ohio that she was renting, so we gave the tenets notice and moved up here. Cost of living up here compared to where we were at is amazing, but the food, nightlife, sucks ass. I started my weightloss journey a few months after we got up here, and I ended up getting weight loss surgery, I was around 450 at my highest, right now I'm down to 320, and still loosing every week. I have a goal weight of around 220 in mind. But yeah, I have loads of free time, at least for now. Things might change in a few months though. Its going to be hard to return to a real job, since the small town I am in doesn't have much when it comes to Security jobs so I might end up having to take a job at a manufacturing plant or the egg farm, which I hear stinks.. but eh, its money. I'm not liking living in rural Ohio, other than the cost of living, and I can get a gallon of milk for 99c, and a dozen eggs for 45c. But finding a good rack of BBQ or a fucking Breakfast taco is nearly impossible.
