There's so many times I'm behind someone at the store and they're buying something I'd be embarrassed to buy and I have to giggle to myself. This last time I ran out I was behind a couple of people and all of a sudden they struck up a conversation about what the best colon cleansing thing was! I was trying SO hard not to laugh it was almost unbearable. I'm sure there are a lot of people that use or need those but that is definitely something I'd research from home. I'm really not as comfortable as those people were, obviously. LOL!

Wiped Out!
I've been working a lot lately, I wish it were for money. I'm trying to build up my business slowly but surely. It's taking a whole lot of work and there's nothing to show for it but the receipts for the money going in. Usually I'm the one reading the sleeping aid reviews, trying to find out which ones work best and now I'm so tired that I pass out before I can turn off the TV. That's actually the only way I notice that I'm even as tired as I am, because I hear nothing knowing it's on. LOL I can't wait to see money starting to come in from my latest venture, this had better work out. It's getting hard to keep my motivation and a positive outlook.
A New Natural Find
I just read an interesting article on irvingia because it seemed intriguing. This stuff is an African fruit which holds a lot of health benefits including weight loss, lowering blood pressure and cholesterol. There's little doubt in my mind that it'll soon be the next big thing in diet supplements like hoodia was, because it's natural. The funny thing for me is that I've always leaned toward the things that say "increase energy" because eating isn't my problem, lack of movement is. LOL

The Summer Slim Down
I've never been one of those people who ran out looking for slimming pills to get skinny for summer but this year I might think twice about it. I can't remember the last time I wore a bathing suit and avoid them at all costs. I don't even think I own one, LOL. Eventually the kids will want to go swimming and since we have the little one I can't just say "sure, go ahead." If worst comes to worst I may just send DH in but I have a feeling that she'll drag me in some how. I think this has to be the one thing about summer that I don't care for.
Pass
A friend of mine is finding he's having a difficult time with the employment screening of potential employers. I'm thinking he's not only promoting himself properly but he's not exerting the confidence that he needs to win them over. That's such a big part of the whole process. If you aren't solid in yourself and show what they might be looking for it's out for you and in with the guy next to you. I'm not sure if he'll ever get this (he's rather arrogant) but he'll be broke forever if he doesn't, so he'd better figure out something quick.
Make Money Blogging-Full Time Passive Income
Whether you call it money blogging, niche blogging or marketing it is said you can make a great deal of money with it. Sure it'll take time and a small investment but if you find a system that will work the proper way you can have a generous passive income amount. I'm sure we've all heard of blogging for money in some form but never really known how it's done. Honestly I'm not sure myself since I never bought into any programs (plus I don't like writing, trivial if this works I know). There is a highly recommended program out there from a respected niche blog owner and if you're interested I'd check out the link at the end. Of course there's a fair amount of work involved and you won't see instant profits but as with every venture it takes work and time to create the income you want to see. I'm not saying that if you want to make money blogging that there's any one thing that you have to buy that will work but if there's a trial offered it can't hurt to look into it right? I found that this isn't for me but you may find there's something for you so I thought I would pass this on to those that want it. :o)

New Gig
I've got another small gig added to my basket, not sure I can really keep up with it though. I'm plugging away slow and steadily but I wish that I had more to show for what I do. Oh well, eventually I'll be able to celebrate if all works out as planned. then I can pass out the partagas (I don't smoke lol) and finally get a little respect for what I do. It's so annoying when I work my tail off and the people close to me don't think I do anything when I really work harder than they do.
Man Cave?
DH wants a room of his own. Too bad it's not possible but he should get some kind of space of his own in this house. The poor guy has no where to put his stuff and he can't ever find anything. I feel really bad but it's out of my hands since this isn't our house. As it is we were only "granted" the space we have. He'd really like a workout area at the least with the machines we have and at least one doorway for his pull up bars. We used to have a spot but it got flooded with other people's stuff and they won't take it out (which is why I'm still as fat as I am too).
A Method Untested
I've dabbled but never really gotten into blogging for money and it's kind of interesting. The thing is that, ironically, I can't stand writing. Yeah I have blogs but I don't really do anything with them. I never really have time to sit and do much of anything now since DD is so high maintenance. I wish I did though, it seems to be a good amount of money in that biz after looking into it. Maybe someday I can do something but for now I'm just plugging away.
I'll have some information up about it shortly for those that are interested and have more time than I do.

Candid Camera
I've always thought that security cameras play a big role in a business's operation but what no one really realizes until later is that they can end up playing a big role in crime investigations. Lately the city was hit by a bunch of robberies and each time there was at least one place that had them on camera. Not just the business that got hit but others that showed them getting ready to go in and stuff. If I had a business I would definitely have them up and pointing in all directions just in case.
Timeshare Income
My brother in law is really trying out the real estate ladder. He's been all over the country looking at vacation properties and his latest venture is orlando timeshare buying. Since I have no idea how they work I'm not sure if he knows what he's doing but he thinks that he can make a lot out of it. It's really good for him but every now and then I can't help but be at least a little bit jealous since we don't have the money to do the same thing. At the same time I really don't want to deal with the things that can go wrong either. All he needs to do is rent to one bad tenant and it can make his life a pain. So really I guess I'm not all that jealous after all.
Movin Along
With all that I do there never seems to be any time for me to work out. Of course I need to think about looking at treadmills since mine totally died. It was a cheap one anyway. I'd LOVE to get a NordicTrack but I'm not sure if I'll ever be able to afford that. I remember trying to use one my parents' friends had when I was little. My legs weren't long enough and I had no idea how to coordinate my arms and legs, talk about funny. I would just love anything that would monitor my progress and have more than two incline levels but a NordicTrack would be really nice!
The Easter Rush
There's so much to get done around here it's exhausting. I'm still finishing up the cleaning and details on the room and spring break is coming so I'll have a bunch of crazy kids around here next week. I hate having to work around holidays and all the stuff that comes with them. It always seems that work amps up around a holiday too no matter how insignificant the holiday is.
Needless to say I'm burnt out and need some time off. What's ideal to me? Not having to get out of bed until I actually want to, not having to clean, relaxing and sleeping until I can't anymore. LOL I miss being a teenager sometimes.
