I meant to post this earlier, but I was busy babysitting and then writing. I’m still busy writing but oh well, I’m gonna multitask lol. :p
Babysitting has been fine this week. He had more good moments then not-so-good moments (he’s two so he does have his not-so-good moments). We had some cuddle time again; he likes to sit or lay with me on the couch. :) We don’t babysit tomorrow or Friday, but I’ll see him again on Friday when my best friend takes me to my eye appointment.
Writing has been okay this week too. I have hit my daily goal every night so far, and I’ll probably hit it tonight as well. I joined this other writing team and it’s been a big help. The downfall is it takes days for this team to approve the work, and cash-out is every Thursday (until 11:59pm). I’ll get the money during the next pay period, but it would be nice to have a good chunk of them approved by tomorrow night. I’m waiting on another regular client to approve my work soon, and it’d be pretty helpful if most of the assignments were approved before I hit the “pay-off” button. I don’t expect to hit my weekly goal this time around due to my eye appointment on Friday, but I am going to the best I can, and come close to it lol.
The WWE Raw presale is tomorrow, and I’m ordering several tickets. I already have the presale password and my alarm is set, so I’m ready to go. It may be difficult to grab really good seats because I’m going with a group this time, but it’s okay, it’s only the presale. They don’t release all the tickets during the presale, so I can check back throughout Thursday and Friday (depending on how my eyes are feeling), or I can hit the regular sale Saturday morning.
My eye appointment is on Friday so I wouldn’t expect to see me around much, same with the weekend due to other plans. I’m sure I have said this before, but I’m not looking forward to possibly getting drops in my eyes on Friday… but you do what you gotta do, so I’m just gonna suck it up and deal with it.
Welp, I think I chatted your ears (or eyes haha) off enough, so I’m going to wrap this up. I’ll try to be back soon for the Gratitude Challenge. You all take care and have fun on MyLot! :)

Not ever day can I multitask doing my,or and babysitting. I take care of three kids for most of the day all boys till my 5 year comes ans then the big sister comes till there dad picks them um. All under the age of 7 to 1. Hey I steal a little time here and there when the kids let me. They keep me on my toes. Today the 2 year broke one of candle holders which new normally doesn't do stuff like that. I'm nori ally the oops I dropped glass aw well. I cleaned up quickly ans get got mad at me because I wouldn't let him play in broken glass. His mom would kill ,e if o let him do that. Then perils shavings on the floor. He is having a hard time with the new routine of me having him first thing in the morning till late or mid day.

I don't write while he is here, unless it's nap time or he's sitting next to me watching something (and even then I'm rarely online). He's an active two year old so I'd rather wait until he is picked up that afternoon. Two year olds definitely get into things lol. He grabbed my niece's Dora plastic snowglobe off the shelf. He wasn't trying to hurt it, but I took it and put it up higher because it's not his and it's up there for display purposes. How is he now with the new routine? We have the little one on a routine, but sometimes that routine is messed up. -Sigh-

@tammys85 he gets dropped. To me at 7:15, he'll play with my 3.5 year old and 1 year old sons for the day till my daughter comes from pre k. I take him with my boys down to the bus stop in the morning which is at 8am. We come back to house the boys play around for a bit at 10 or 10:30 he'll go down for a nap, I base that off if he is getting cranky or not. If he is cranky I do 10 but if not I give him that extra 30 to play. He'll sleep til 2 if he isn't a wake by then I wake him so he can have lunch because two of the days I have him he leaves at 3 so on those days I wake him at 2 to eat lunch. He'll play some more after eating lunch, his sister comes at 3 and together they leave by 4 or 4:30.

I am just getting back into that writing site. I would be in trouble if I depended on it for a living. It is nice to start getting a little bit more income in on a weekly basis. I am just not motivated enough.

I hate the way life gets in the way of what we really want to do. LOL! I have been behind every day this week just because I've had to make meals, and the changing weather has affected my sleep and my pain. Just having a grocery day takes getting on the treadmill right off the list. I got on today for 30 minutes, stopped to make hubby his dinner and lunch for work, then got back on for another 15 minutes. Maybe it is possible to break it up. Now if I could fit working on my novel into my schedule.

Thank you so much! I rarely get online while babysitting unless he's napping because he's a very active two year old; walking, talking up a storm and getting into things lol. Thanks a bunches though; I save up my babysitting money for the tickets, since the freelance writing money usually goes towards more important things (i.e., my eye doctor's appointment last week).
