You should be able to make $250.00 pretty quick mowing lawns and doing yard work, this time of year. It's good work for a young man.

5 yards at $50 each and you’re set. Should be able to get them on a 2 week cutting also. Maybe 3 if they’re cheap. Have it paid off in no time.

At the beginning of school year, each student here has the option to pay a $20 insurance fee so that if anything happens to electronic device it's covered. If you don't pay the $20 and something happens then it's on you.
Does your school offer something like that?

I know it's a bad deal but there are a ton of people out there that would love for that to be their only problem. Someday you won't even remember this.

I agree. Can you imagine if there was no internet when this plandemic hit?

I hate my kids being on computers all day for school

Yeah but you still had to cut up grocery sacks to wrap them in.

Like has already been said it’s a bump in the road and there will be many more in your life. Work hard keep a positive attitude and learn to make the best of every situation. Wake up every morning with a smile on your face and tell yourself that it’s going to be a good day and try to maintain that attitude no matter who or what gets in your way. I promise you if you go around town and tell folks what happened and ask if they have any work for you to make some money, they will be more than happy to find some for you to do, but make sure you do it with a good attitude and not a “poor me, life sucks attitude”. I hire high school kids off and on all year to help me keep up with farm chores and I pay extra and call them back if they work hard and show some initiative.

No matter how bad you think you have it, remember there is somebody somewhere that has it much much worse.
