Well, God sure does work in mysterious ways. I finally break down and cough up the money to get health insurance in December. It takes effect on January 1.
And I get hit with a cough that won’t quit right at the beginning of January. I finally broke down and went to an urgent care at the beginning of last week. Evidently, it was just a bronchitis type thing and would have probably cleared itself up had I just waited it out. But after being miserable and unproductive for several weeks, I couldn’t stand it anymore.
The meds being covered paid for the insurance. Woot, woot!
Here we are over a week and a half later, I’ve completed the antibiotics and steroids. The cough still lingers a bit. But I am able to function and sleep again. Hallelujah!
Now to get back on the horse…
In the meantime, I’ve picked up 3 new, small ongoing contracts through Upwork for website, SEO, and general digital marketing work. I’ve had a first round interview for a corporate job. (Crossing fingers that I get a call back for round two.)
And I am targeting putting the house on the market towards the end of February. More on that later.
I may have been sick, but I have not been idle. Just really, really slow.
I will say that being unemployed for the most part is a very, very different feeling when you are only responsible for yourself. The bills are covered for February and I’ve now got some cash flow.
I’ll keep you updated, but just wanted to jump on and let you know what was going on.
