I have been sitting at this computer all morning and not getting much done. It is running so slow that it is taking me twice as long to get anything accomplished. I’m almost to the point that I’m going to shut the stupid thing down for the day and go sit outside on my patio cushions for the entire afternoon. Now most days this doesn’t aggravate me quite so much, but today I have a lot of work to do and I don’t think I’m going to get it all done. I really do hope that Santa is reading this post, takes pity on me and sends me a brand new laptop this Christmas.

As you can tell by my recent posts (or lack there of) I haven’t been in here blogging very much. There is a reason for this. I now lack the motivation to get in here and post. After blogging for three years, I think I’m finally running out of steam. I really don’t want to give up blogging all together, but if my interest doesn’t return I’m afraid that this might happen. Hopefully all I need to do is take a little break and then things may fall back into place again. So… you probably will see me in here every once and a while for a while, but when things change here at home, I do have plans of spending more time in here.

Many of you may not be aware of this, but lately I have been trying my hand at general transcription. Although I do find this work quite tedious, I do enjoy doing it so I think I will continue on with this type of work for a little while. But I have also been thinking about doing some medical billing and coding as well. But to do this I would have to take medical coding training courses to get into this field. I don’t know if I’m prepared to pay money for courses just yet. So I think I will just continue on with what I’m doing and possibly down the road check out this other profession a little more closely.

Online shopping makes me nervous. It always has. I am always wondering just how safe a site really is. Yesterday I was looking at different sites online which offered the consumer an annuity. But I was really hesitant to take it any further because of course I was a little nervous about how safe these sites are. Most of my friends do a lot of online shopping and have never experienced any sorts of problems. But me being the nervous nelly that I am, I can see that I’m probably never going to do a major amount of online shopping in my life time.

Last night as I was surfing the Internet I came across a site over at www.cards-411.com. This site supplies and sells Pregnancy Announcements. They have the widest variety of Announcements Pregnancy that I have found on the Internet. You can custom order your pregnancy announcement or you can pick from their many choices of maternity announcements. I know if I was looking for a site to purchase pregnancy cards, this would be the site I would look at. Their prices are extremely reasonable and with their fast shipping practices, you will have your invitations when you want them.

When my husband receives his income tax refund, he plans on purchasing a brand new laptop for himself. He will then give his old one to the kids for them to share. Currently they have one that they watch Christian videos on, play games on and caralluma diet pills
do some school work research on, but it has just about given up the ghost so they really do need a new computer. Right now the one they have, can only be used if it’s plugged in and a couple of the keys are missing. Plus, their computer doesn’t have a whole lot of memory, so getting them a newer one is a top priority right now. I don’t know who is more excited about getting a new laptop, the kids or my husband.

As many of you may be aware, to earn a little extra income for our household, I do some freelance writing. Most of my efforts lately have been directed to paid blogging. For those of you who may not be aware, paid blogging is when a company asks you to write about a product like stereo cabinet or a what is caralluma fimbriata extract
service and after you post about it on your blog, then they will pay you for your time and post. But, these opportunities seem to be dwindling away so I have been looking at other ways to earn this income. Well, I have found another way to earn this income. And this is through freelance article writing. This is pretty much the same thing as paid blogging, except you don’t need a blog to participate. Although it’s not my ideal form of writing, it does earn me extra money when I need it. So between the both, I am coming close to earning my ideal income level from working from home.

I find that it’s quite amusing to see how much Canada and the US are alike and different. Since I started blogging I have made a lot of blogging buddies that come from the US. I read their blogs on a daily basis as I like to see what is going on in the world around me. Sometimes I am amazed at the huge differences in our countries. Take NC health insurance for example. People in NC are paying a lot more for a lot less coverage than I get. And of course I don’t think this is right at all. I really don’t care where you live, everyone needs health insurance. So when I’m reading about issues such as this, I am quite thankful that I do reside in Canada.
