Wildfires & Online Money

I’m sure it’s all over the news everywhere, California has 800+ fires that were started by lighting.  I live in Northern California and the is air thick with smoke, we haven’t been able to see the sun since Saturday.  Last night when it cooled off we opened our front door to let the cool night air in and the air that blew in the house set off the smoke detector!  We ended up having to shut the door.

All this smoky air is doing a number on my already dried out nose.  My nose got so dried out, cracked and bleeding that on Tuesday out of desperation, I went to the feed store and bought bag balm - the stuff they put on the teets of dairy cows and shoved some of that up my nose.  It worked like a charm!  (I’m not a doctor so if you use bag balm use it at your own risk.)

I’ve been super busy on Monday we went and dropped off two of my girls at 4-H camp.  I’ve been down to just two kids this week, my house is extremely quiet and I’m not liking it one bit.  I really miss the girls.  Tomorrow my husband and I are picking them up and I can’t wait to hear all about camp.

My husband has been working from home all this week.  His cell phone is basically his job.  While I LOVE having him home 24/7 I’m also missing the time I used to have alone.  I guess I want it all - him home and my time alone.  Maybe this is what happens after 13 years of marriage?

I got another website/store up and running.  I’m hoping to build another in the next week or so and then submit them both to directories and search engines at the same time.  Including this blog I have 4 sites up and running and about 20 more I’d like to get going, it’s just a matter of finding the time.  So far my online earnings total about $70 and all if it was from completing surveys.
