Yeah, let's!

I may not always say it, but I am truly thankful for the life that I have.

I noticed that I 'whine'...okay, complain quite a lot here in my blog. From things like the unpredictable weather we've been having lately OR about work being slow OR the neighbor's dried leaves in our yard OR...ok, I know you get it already.

Even though I try to somehow cover my 'whines' with statements like: "I know we're luckier compared with/to....", it's still complaining.

When the truth of the matter is: I shouldn't be complaining, period.

I have a healthy family. A hardworking husband and a [very] sweet little one. We have a roof over our heads. We eat 3 square meals everyday [and then some]. We're not behind in any bills...and most of all, we have each other. I am BLESSED!

This weekend, we had a perfect weather..and for that, I'm thankful. I'm also thankful that we were able to spend time together as a family even for just a few hours. We didn't go anywhere fancy but we had a blast. That only shows it doesn't take much to be happy. So from now on...I'll try and look at the bright side of my daily life and stop staring at the gloomy side because at the end of the day, I have nothing to say but Thank You God for the blessings.

What a heart-warming post! Yes, we all should be thankful with what the good Lord has given us, each and every day. We may have a list full of complains, but surely there are far more better things to be grateful for.

Have a great day, Mommy J!

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
