This separation is so very tough

I’m writing the the first thing that comes to me as soon as I wake up and this is it: it’s being separated from my family. Right now I think it’s hitting my wife more than me from an emotional point of view, which makes it even harder.

One of the biggest problems is logistical. I have no privacy where I live. I cannot talk freely and when I can, the Internet is of bad quality so the video chat (skype) doesn’t work.

Furthermore, I’m working harder than you can imagine. Up until 2am in the mornings. At the rate I’m going, I’ll never get anywhere. The money I get paid for the time I put in will never be enough for us to be together.

But I may have figured out a path. It’s something I’ve been working on for several days in the wee hours of the morning. It is a content site around the work I’ve been doing, which is freelance WordPress development. There’s still al lot to do but I think it should work. After all, failure is not an option.
