// ABOUT THIS BLOG...

This blog's about stuff I'm trying out online in my attempt to supplement my income. /// The blog's name is really just a playful dig at the plethora of ways to (apparently) make money online. If you're gonna get paid to read an email, fill out a survey, write a post, brush your teeth, sit down, stand up, well, why not get paid to fart? I tell ya, I'd be a celebrity in my own right if the latter were true! A lady I certainly am not. ;-)//

Happy New Year, people! Didn't 2010 fly by? Now 2011's here, I wonder what it's hiding behind its back?

Whatever you do decide to do in 2011, people, grab the year by the frikkin balls and make things happen. Turn it upside down and let your dreams shake out its pockets.

This year, for me, is all about TAKING ACTION and CONQUERING FEARS. Life is shy; I need to stop waiting around for it to make the first move.


Anyhoo...my earnings for December...

I didn't make as much money online in December as I made in November. I'm fine with that as I really just went with the flow and wasn't particularly attached to the outcome.

I made $191.70.

As has been the case over the past four months, CloudCrowd was my biggest earner, followed by other bits and pieces of earnings from other sources.

- Proofreading: $12.26

- Kooday: $11.67 (make money by buying & selling keywords. Requires a minimum $5 investment.)

Happy 2011! I'm glad you're still on blogger. Btw, thanks for the visit to my blog. I second your comment regarding SWOM.

Let's hope for the best this year. We'll make more money. Be positive. =)

Hi avatarlady :-)

Happy 2011 to you too!

Part of my plan this year is to move this blog to Wordpress. Feels like moving home. Just have to summon up the courage and the energy to do it.

Yeah, SWOM...is what it is. I might revisit it to see how I can utilise it as a free member, but I don't plan on making an investment.

I hope we both achieve our dreams this year, making money online and otherwise.

You take care now...
