Worrying about the Issues?

It's not that I don't care much about current issues, it's just that I'm off the faith that believes all things that are coming to pass right now were predicted in the Bible. The events are worrying, but also weirdly reassuring because many of them are fulfillment of the end times prophecies. You just do what you can to make things better, but know in your heart and head that your real home is elsewhere anyway.

MyLot Tasks and Fiction Blog

Here's a tale of me being dumb:
You know those MyLot tasks I've been doing with regularity (it's just my kind of online opp - easy to do, no real commitment - although I wish it paid more), well the past weeks, they'd been coming sporadically, I thought. What I would do was just click on tasks on the menu bar and I'd get to the dashboard. However, the day before, I thought of clicking "available" on the submenu board, did so, and found about three other pages of tasks, with a whole page of those tasks that I'd been missing. I wanted to smack myself on the forehead. All those days of missed earnings.
Btw, I've also ventured into something a little, shall we call it interesting. It's a combination of fiction and blogging. It's so much fun to do. I miss writing fiction for those weekly magazines, something I used to do regularly in my early twenties. There are publishers I can submit my stories to, but the ones I know kind of prefer the fantasy genre, definitely not something I'm comfortable with. Anyway, this fiction blog is something that I've monetized and it's a great writing experiment besides. I meant to keep it separate from my real blogging identity as it can get silly, but I've already been busted by one of my blogging friends (you know who you are, shuuuuush, hehe).

Couch Potatoes Talking about Endurance Sports

Once upon a time I got hit on by a triathlete and that's all the connection I'll ever have with endurance sports, I think. I do like watching adventure races. My sister and I followed the Eco Challenge in Fiji avidly. Of course, we did so in the comfort of our couches and air conditioning, lol. Anyway, here's a convo about endurance sports.

Take Us Back to the Garage!!!

I love music. I'm a real music fiend. I really don't get how I didn't get even a sprinkling of talent in this area when I love it so much. I had to stay in the periphery of the '90s band scene because I can't be in the band myself. I got to say I'm with the band a lot (a very mild groupie, lol) as a friend, a roadie, and later as a girlfriend. I know I married a musician, but life meddled and somehow we found ourselves out of the band scene. I think we can go back though, go back to our roots...

Slow Week?

WAH life started out slow this week. I got used to opps flying past from all directions and my problem was judiciously choosing the ones that would benefit me most and would be doable in the time I allot for WAH. I hope it picks up soon. Anyway, as soon as I get some details ironed out, I think I might be selling another car here. Maybe even puppies. I'll confirm with Husband as he's really the one in charge of it.

Working with Lolcats

My back hurts like the dickens. I was forced to work sideways to accommodate Marguerite who insisted on watching lolcats videos on the computer with me. Today of all days, I had to take on 11 MyLot tasks and two paid post opps. First, Marguerite is spooked by the heavy rains and strong winds, so she had to stay within cuddle reach. The winds wreaked havoc with the cable connection so the TV's out of commission. Then because I didn't listen to my guts, I had to deal with, first, soiled underpants, and then wet underpants (shortly after giving her a bath too) that also resulted in a veritable flood. Fine day. Except for my poor back, I'm not really complaining.

More Talk about Hair

Okay, this is a very touchy subject for me. My hair is one probably one of the most unmanageable on the planet, so tread carefully. Apparently, we'd like to know more of your thoughts on hair and the troubles they cause, which in my case, is a life of bad hair days.

In the Occasion of Multiple Paid Post Opps in One Day

My personal blog is experiencing an influx of paid posts (good for the WAHM, but it might turn off my readers). Anyway, the other annoying thing about paid posts is the rule that a paid post cannot be preceded or succeeded by another paid post. And the posts before and after the paid post have to be legitimate posts and not just some space filler. What do I do then? Well, it's a pain, but I'm compiling some posts, most of them memes (haha), so I don't need to compose something from scratch in case I can snag 3 opps in one day.

A Hairy Topic

I have a bad hair life. I've constantly written about this in newspapers and magazines. It's practically impossible to style it since it's too thick, too frizzy, and, well, just too-too. I usually deal with it by tying it or braiding it. If I let it loose for more than an hour, the thing will expand to about 10 inches around my head. Yes, hair is definitely a delicate matter to take up with me.

What's the Buzz on Memorial Day?

So I was watching the Today Show the other day and they had two guests answering all sorts of trivia questions about Memorial Day. I didn't know it was called Decoration Day before. That little bit might come in useful in my next round of Trivial Pursuit.
