Fed Up....

 ...of summer and it's only May!

I always feel that May is the last chance to get things done before the heat and humidity set in. This year, however, May is already too hot! It's already 30℃ at 11 am! Yesterday was up to 33℃! Far too hot for this time of year.

Today and tomorrow are my teaching days, and I honestly don't want to go! The air conditioner in Mikey's car doesn't work, and of course, there's no money to fix it. I feel like I loose 3 days, 2 days going to teach and then one day to recover. I'm not sure it's worth it for me now, the amount I make doesn't justify what we pay in gas and for renting the community centre, but until I have another source of income, I have to keep going.

Which brings me to the next thing I have to moan about.

YouTube and all the promises of making money!

I don't know if anyone goes down these rabbit holes, but I keep seeing these videos with thumbnails that say things like "Copy me and make xxxxx" or "How to quit your job and make money". I've watched them, I've tried to copy them, but I keep hitting a brick wall. One problem is that a lot of the tools they use are not free, and I honestly don't want to pay for something that doesn't work. Then there are all the new rules about using AI to create things. I'm inspired by the idea of making colouring books to sell on KDP, but I can't draw, so I would have to use AI. Amazon has so many hoops to jump through; I guess it's good, as I know that many artists are trying to sell their work but are being pushed out of the market by AI.

I should get lunch and get ready to go!

One thing with going out is the interesting things I get to see.

The other day, we were behind this truck, I have no idea what he had on the back of it!

House on wheels?

I just checked the homepage that is on the back of the truck, it's a florist's.
