Writing help

  • A free app: Grammarly. A lot of us are not native English speakers and I am finding it a helpful app. It will underline spelling and grammar mistakes. Remember that it is not always right -especially if you use complex sentence structures. Here is the link

  • Remember The Most Dangerous Writing App. You set the time - 5 min - and start typing. Don’t stop!!! It will destroy what you wrote if you stop for more than 3 seconds - and backspace does not count as writing on the app. If you are prone to stop and think - this app forces you to keep going. You can make corrections after the 5 minutes are over.

  • A timer. Egg timer is a free tool you can use on your desktop to set a time. This is useful for our freewrites or if you want to work in blocks of time and then take a break. Here is the link

  • I found this app through @emwalker. Use it regularly and it will help you type faster and more accurately. [10 fast fingers](https://10fastfingers.com/typing-test/english

There are many miles from where I live to the main market. It is the place where I find the best prices for the vegetables, vegetables and fruits that I need to consume daily. Due to my overweight condition I have to follow that type of special diet. And it corresponds to me to have to look for the most economical prices of those products, because in the town where I live their prices are very high.

And then the inconvenience arises: to get to that far away place I need a vehicle, because it is completely difficult to bring all my purchases using public transport. I would need to pay for a taxi or some service that would allow me to bring all the food home, and that is very expensive, it is a luxury that I cannot afford. Even less today that the economy is so difficult on this side of the world.

It is difficult to have to move great distances without having a vehicle. And I personally believe that even if I had the chance to have it, I would never use it. I am very afraid of driving, but not because I do it badly (in fact I learned to drive years ago), but because of the other drivers, who in a city as hectic as Caracas, surely with the slightest carelessness I could have an accident.

And so I keep it from happening, I'd rather have to keep myself from going too many miles and keep myself safe and secure.

I hope you will be able to figure out how to shop and bring your purchases back from the main market. It sounds like a good market but you have some obstacles to getting there and back.

At the moment given the circumstances, I am forced to buy everything around here, so that seriously depletes my wallet, because all the products come out at a much higher price. So I have to do magic, and manage in an extreme way what I get to earn from my work. This results in buying fewer things to make my money work, but that's life.

Thanks for your motivating words 😎
