For a change, I am posting something positive about me.
For the first time after so many years I feel this again. Today, I made something great, at least, for doing something out of my ordinary routine.
I took the kids out without my husband to drive us to and fro.I single handedly took care of my three year old daughter and her 10 month-old baby sister. I thought at first it is difficult but hey I did well. We had fun.!
And, since I received my payouts for the sites I had been working with, I managed to buy a new mouse (my husband bought a mouse from a surplus shop but it wasn't functioning well, it needs replacement), a calculator (so husband doesn't have to use his cellphone or the pc to do his calculation), pens (we always run out of pens), stuff for my 3 year old daughter, and we had pizza and pasta for dinner downed with our favorite four seasons, all from my own pocket!
And here's what I'm so happy about, I was able to deposit money for my savings today before going to the mall. I am so elated about my little accomplishment.

Hi, dear.
Thanks for dropping a line here. Yup. I did have a great time, though, I must admit it was very difficult to carry two kids all by myself (I'm not used to going out without hubby to assist me taking care of the kids)but it was a liberating experience.
I had so much fun, as well as the kids, that we are planning to do it again.. I'm hoping I can earn a little more again so that I can save and get a chance to enjoy a little ,too.
Keep enjoying, I like that, Deep.:)

Congratulations!
I think you and me are alike. There is nothing that could make me even proud-er of myself than depositing into a savings account. I have a separate account for all my online earnings, which I don't really touch. And even if it were just a few dollars, I find that it makes my day everytime I add on to it.

Glad to hear that you are saving your hard earned online money, Bounce.
It takes a lot of guts not to touch it and decide to just save it especially if you need cold cash most of the time.
But, yes, it is part of my plan for this year to start saving, no matter how small money I have on hand. The thing is, at the end of a long period those small amounts saved will make a truly big difference when combined.
Keep on, dear. You are doing the right thing.:)

I'm glad to hear that you had fun with your kids spending what you worked hard for on the internet..
I wish I can spend my payouts as well but its not much to buy something I want, so I just invested it to some of my paid sites for renting refs hoping I'll get more in a few days...

Hello, Angel.
Apologies for the late reply.:(
I was planning also to do a little investing but I'm not sure where since the money was not big enough.Plus, i have been longing to be out somewhere with my kids. I am so bored staying at home 24/7 that I felt then I needed to breath fresh air and thus, when I had the means, we went for it. And it was very liberating.
I went home tired but happy. Kids, too.
As for you, who knows? Maybe ,when you get to reap what you've invested, you'll enjoy it,too, in a very delightful way,more than I did.:)
Goodluck to you, dear. God bless.:)

I love getting payments from online. What is even better is if the payment was unexpected like a check from an online survey that you completed then forgot about. I got a six dollar check in the mail yesterday and received a payment from clixsense yesterday that I transferred over to my bank account today. Later this month I will get my fourth sidetick payment since joining. I also enjoy the recurring small payments for doing pinecone research surveys. Every little bit adds up and these smaller payments have come in handy in a pinch.

Hello, Linda.
You are very right in saying that, dear. No matter how little we earn from individual site but if they are combined together it makes a considerable amount as a whole. And it is really worth the efforts and time we spent in doing the menial job.
I'm happy to hear that you are seem earning well and that your efforts are finally rewarded. Kudos to you, then ,my dear.

Yes, it was indeed a great accomplishment for me. For years, I have been waiting for something like this to happen. Free to decide and free to do the things that I want to do without worrying about someone or something.
I feel so liberated and I'm looking forward to do it once more, frequently, which gives me more motivation to work harder.
Thank you, MamaCat.:)

Cashsearcher, sorry for this late reply. I was busy doing other things since I am a stay at home Mom.
I've joined several sites and I'm happy that this month I was able to cashout from them all, with no pain. Meaning, I did not have to wait for long before I received payments from them all. That's why I was able to have a get away with my kids despite of my husband's absence.
I'll pm you. Thank you for the friendship.

Hello there, Vandy.:)
How are you? I'm so happy to see you here after such a long time. I wonder where have you been lately. Don't tell me you've been to London to visit the Queen.
Anyways, thanks for dropping a line here. :)
I prefer to bring with me her older sister because I do not have to carry her all the time. I did not bring with us the stroller because it is difficult for me to unfold and fold it in the cab. Plus, I'm not really good in maneuvering it especially on escalators.
But, despite of my numb muscles for carrying her, we had a great time together. Plus, by miracle they were well behaved today.

Hello, Edna.:)
Thank you. :) Though this may sound as not a really big deal to others but for me who is a stay at home Mom ,without a money of my own and could hardly go out of the house without hubby's permission, this is an enormous achievement!
And I am so happy to share this with my Mylot friends and those who become so supportive of me when I needed someone to listen to me during my lowest times. :)
God bless you, too, dear.

Hi there, friend.:)
I really feel great today. Though in the past I also received payments from my online job but I often spend it out of the blue. After of which I didn't even realize I already spent them all.
I'm not earning that much yet because I'm not really as active like the rest here but at least I am earning enough to buy decent and durable things.
Just keep on, dear. You'll enjoy it. I'll pm you some of the sites that already paid me today. A least I'm sure they are legit.
See you around, dear.
