Ever feel the need make some money???

Dear Reader,

Okay, so for awhile now I have been trying to find ways to make extra money. I thought about doing temp work again as a dental assistant one day a week, but then I'd have to find someone to watch the twins, then I tried eBay for awhile...uh...didn't work out. Then I moved on to amazon and sold used book, this actually worked well for a while but truth be told I ended up getting so busy that I ran out of time to properly do it!! Plus, the books that didn't sell drove my husband crazy! I might start doing it again but on a way lower scale. who knows.

Now I'm trying to do some freelance writing over the Internet. But before I can apply for the "real jobs" I have to write a certain amount of articles. This isn't too bad since I love to write and I'm actually learning stuff in the process. Like does anyone know what "national Sorry day is?? I DO NOW and last night I learned how to make lotion from goats milk!!! Who knew!!

I don't know why I have this urge to earn my "own" money, but I do, though my time is kinda tied up in this thing called "raising a family"!!! hahaha. I know my time with come to get out there and make some "real money". There is a season for everything right???

I'm back!!!...Well almost

Dear Reader,
Okay so I finally got a computer to work with (mine is still down). I never realize how long it takes for a computer to get fixed! Anyhow, just got back from a wonderful ski trip to Utah with friends. The first day of skiing was a major challenge for me, in fact I quit mid-day and hung out in the lodge :) It was a great break from the kids, but they are just so darn cute when you see them after a few days . McKenzie had a lot to tell me about her weekend. I understood most of what she was saying. The excitement that crosses their face when your kids see you after a few days is priceless! It's the best part about going away.

Thankfully the girls were good to me today! though the teacher at school did say they got into a "smack down" with each other. We are still working on the whole fighting issue. Hopefully tomorrow is just as good as today.
