Working & Studying

-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Not too long ago, my oldest sister celebrated her 50th birthday. Up until now I cannot believe that she's actually a 'golden girl'. Since it's some kind of a milestone, my other siblings and their kids gave her a simple birthday party at home. Obviously I wasn't there since I'm thousands of miles away from them...but I got to talk to them....to all of them actually. Can you imagine the phone bill? Anyway, I'm always happy to talk to them and hear news such as a nephew who's almost done with medical school and a niece who's on her 3rd year in law school. These kids were just babies when I left and now they're aspiring doctor & lawyer? Wow. Anyway, one of my nieces though is still not decided what she wants to do. Actually, she hasn't even started taking any college courses because she wanted to work already. Now that she's working, she realized that her promotion is next to nothing if she doesn't have a degree. So I told her to go online and find an online college degree so she can work and study at the same time. I have yet to hear from her whether she did what I suggested. I surely hope so....

You Belong With Me...Little One's Version

-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is the little one singing with the new Taylor Swift song called: You Belong with Me ... acapella She's a big TS fan right now so that's all I'm hearing around the house lately. The little one's video is far from perfect but I'm a proud Mama. She recorded this all on her own so pardon the little 'booboos/mistakes' she made while recording/singing. Enjoy! If you're not familiar with the song, here's the link to the official video .

Paid Blogging....

 ...is that still even a thing today? I stopped blogging actively several years ago...so now I'm like starting all over again.  I don't even know what to post anymore. A lot has changed since I started this blog in 2008. Yep, that's how long ago it's been. Back then I just wanted to write whatever. I was already a WAHM - Work at Home Mom when I started this blog and that's how my blog title came about. I started doing work-at-home jobs as early as 2002. I had a handful of different jobs I was juggling at that time so blogging was just really something I did during my free time. After a while I did paid blogging. I did that for a few years. I tried to do it as much as I could but my 'real' jobs had to be my priority so my blogging had to take a back seat. In retrospect, that may be the reason why I slowly lost interest in doing it. I tried going back to it every now and then, but the 'mojo' is just not there so I stopped altogether but opted to keep m...
