I'm Building

I joined a(nother doomed) challenge called 31 Days to Build a Better Blog in order to encourage myself to fill this space a little more frequently and in an improved manner.  I skipped yesterday’s Day 1 challenge, which invited me to write an elevator pitch for this here site.  I have no interest in marketing myself or coming up with a pithy way to say that I talk about the random things that pop into my head.  I am not here to Market or Brand or Sell.  The Day 2 challenge is a much more interesting (to me) task.  It is simply to make a list.  I like lists.

10 Things I Have Learned or Have Been Reminded of Recently

Thing 1:  Dumping salsa, sour cream and shredded cheddar in a bowl is 90% as good as actual 7 Layer Dip and takes 90% less time to prepare.

Thing 2:  Having a second job can be rewarding and it isn’t just the extra cash. 

Thing 3:  If drinking a martini out of a travel mug at a bluegrass bar at 2 in the afternoon seems OK, you have had already had too much vodka.

Thing 4:  Kind words have a pretty amazing way of brightening someone’s day.

Thing 5: Unexpected gifts from far away friends are equally awesome. 

Thing 6:  A clean and freshly groomed dog makes a very fine cuddle companion.

Thing 7:  If winter weather decides that April is an appropriate time to show up, just embrace it.  One more evening this year with homemade soup, the fireplace ablaze and a quilt on you lap isn’t the worst thing in the world.

Thing 8:  Comfortable shoes can improve many situations.

Thing 9:  A wii is a good investment.

Thing 10:  Soy milk makes almost all hot beverages taste better.

  2. What are some creative and legal ideas for making cash in college? I currently have a little extra time on weekends for making some extra cash. I’m already doing tutoring, an extra tutoring job, and working part-time, and taking 2 classes.free tax return software
