Christmas 2014

It is that time of year again... Christmas. While I love Christmas and spending time with my family and friends it really does become crazy. For example, every morning this week I have gotten up and baked something for Christmas. Today (as I write this post) I have my second batch of banana nut bread in the oven. I do have to admit that I love the smell of baking goodies. Yesterday I spent all day wrapping Christmas presents and only have a few more to go today. Yes we have a very large family! To make things a little crazier this year, I stopped working for another employer and started working full time knitting through my Etsy.com store - Mom's Creative Creations . I have one gift to finish knitting before Christmas. I am staying positive it will happen. Our family got some great news the other night. I just found out that my son and his girlfriend got engaged. We will be planning a wedding very soon. In case I don't get the chance before Christmas, I want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas. If your family celebrates a different holiday, please know I wish you a very Happy Holiday Season.

Chatabout.com

I have recently found a site that you can earn points by commenting on different areas. They also have an area where you can get "easy" points or take a daily poll to earn points. It really doesn't take too much time to earn enough points for such things as Amazon gift cards. You really should try this site! If you are interested in checking out Chatabout.com here is a link to join. http://chatabout.com/referral/u/53642

I have recently started writing on Bubblews.com to get paid for some of my rants. :) I wanted to give you some links to some of my writings so you can read them if interested. The Murdering of Children: Knitted Puppy Dog: Chocolate: These are just a few. Hope you enjoy reading them.

Quiet, Lazy Sunday

Today has been one of those days where I can't seem to get too interested in anything. I did manage to finish the last 10 pages of John Grisham's book "Sycamore Row". By the way this was a wonderful read. I highly recommend it. I have picked up and put down my knitting numerous times today. I can't seem to get into anything on the television...nothing interests me. It bothers me because I am fully aware that we only have so much time on this earth. I hate wasting days! HATE. I do feel like I have completely wasted a day that I will never get back. I also have to admit that the joints are so achy today. Even my fingers feel like they are twice the size as normal but they are not. Well, I need to go fix dinner and then try to force myself to knit some. I am test knitting a hat pattern for someone and really need to get through it. I am enjoying the pattern and hope to make some more. Yes, I am making it in very soft yarns so it can be a chemo cap for Baltimore-Chesapeake Head Huggers Group!

Making Money online

I am trying to find true legitimate ways to earn money either telecommuting or on-line. The problem is that so many sites are scams. I have started to blog on Bubblews.com. They will pay out at $50.00 but at first it takes a really long time to get to the $50 mark. I am also chatting on Chatabout.com. I have signed up for numerous sites to try to get transcription jobs as well. Please feel free to comment if you have any other legitimate work at home ideas.
