@ruby3881 It’s good to hear that there were so many online resources for you.

I think you know about the Facebook group better. At first I thought for public group, anyone can just join without needing the admin to approve. I have seen some spammers in the homeschooling groups I joined, even though they are closed groups. Those spammers joined the group mainly to sell their products. That’s why I have this concern for you. But I believe you can handle that well. 🙂

@grecy095 It’s okay. There are always something we might miss out, that’s life. Do not be too harsh on yourself. Don’t you feel good for discovering something new? I am always happy to find out something new, even a very small thing. 😀
I have just submitted a post, about a free interview series. I am not sure if you might feel a little bit better if you listened to the interviews, those are just 15 minutes. I thought of you when I listened to that particular interview and when I wrote the post as well.

I also submitted two posts yesterday, both 610 and 719 for 10 cents. So I think we need to hit 800 words in order to get 12 cents. 🙂

@morgoodie Perhaps it’s good to try to get at least 500 words next time. I got 10 cents for 511 word post. Besides the earning from blog posts, I am always happy to see some earnings from referring visitors as well. It’s quite encouraging. I think I will write more blog posts now. 🙂

Thanks for sharing my posts too! I really appreciate that. Hope it’ll bring you more earnings from referring visitors too.

@morgoodie Me too, about the last name. Moreover, I am a Chinese, I do not see how I am related to the person he mentioned in the email, and the nationality as well. I doubt he knows where I am from too. 😀

I have not receive such message or email before.

These are the crocheted eggs I made for my children for Easter Hunt. I have made other treasures for them as well, but I think my children and some friends who saw the picture of my Easter treasures prefer these crocheted eggs the most. My children also created some games to play with these eggs. So, I think these might be fun for kids, and it’s quite easy to make too.

I am also planning to make more for my children and other kids as well, but I just haven’t find time to do so lately. I am lazy to work on handwork recently. 😀

I guess the fun part is the egg shells can be separated, it’s also fun for young children to learn color matching.

This is the free pattern for these crocheted egg – Baby Chicks in Eggshell

These were supposed to be baby chicks, but I am not good at sewing the eyes and mouth at all, so I skipped that part. Moreover, I think eggs are good enough. 😀

Do share with us if you have done or are working on any crocheting project or have any nice patterns. 🙂

@grecy095 I think there are many free coloring pages to download, and I read that there are apps for this as well, though I do not know how the coloring apps work. Before you actually buy the coloring books, perhaps you can also download some free pages to color, just for fun and perhaps it will make you feel better now. 🙂

It’s good that you are buying for your father, and hope he will like it as well.

May 13, 2016 at 1:15 am

@grecy095 It’s good that you like to do handwork as well. I think doing handwork is therapeutic, and it helps to make us feel better. Perhaps you can do some handwork while working on Humanatic if that works for you, perhaps some coloring would be good too.

Good that you like braiding. So I guess you always prefer to keep your hair long. 🙂

@morgoodie It’s not troublesome at all. I do save the pattern I used always. I guess all of us have different interests, just do what make us feel comfortable. 🙂

This is the link for the crocheted eggs: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/baby-chicks-in-eggshell
I think your sister needs to check whether she can sell the products with this free pattern. Some crocheters really welcome others to make the products from their free pattern and sell them, some might not. But, your sister can always contact the person who provided this free pattern about this.

I did some small piece cross stitch as well, I always lost count too, but since I am not a perfectionist, sometimes I just left it. 😀
Pinterest is an addictive place to visit. Too much time can be spent hiding inside the boards. 😀

@morgoodie Good to know that you like it so much. My computer is quite low, I can’t afford to install any other programs, so I prefer to just check it online. I have Microsoft Office installed as well, for working purpose mostly. I will remember LibreOffice, so whenever I need a free version, I know where to go to. 🙂

@ruby3881 There are many stories about the staff leaving a company, and start their own. Have you used OpenOffice before? Which do you prefer?

May 13, 2016 at 12:51 am

@ruby3881 Do you mean you have more than 200 referral signups or referring visitors?

@swalia I am not good at getting referrals as well, I have no idea how to start and what to do. It’s good that you have one referral now, you will be able to get more and earn more too. 🙂

I always enjoy participating in forums, whether getting paid or not, I just think it’s fun to interact with others, and learn from others too.

May 13, 2016 at 12:23 am

@morgoodie That’s very positive! I agree with that. I do not think I will be a professional writer as well. I think being a professional writer needs to do a lot of research and study, I am just not a research type of person, I prefer to write casually, to express what is in my mind. 😀

I also told my children, we are always learning. A good example is that I never thought I can knit and crochet when I was young, but I learned how to do so in these few years, and now at least I can make some simple toys for them.

My son knew when I was writing in Bubblews, and now also writing in mylot and other sites. He always said he wants to write as well. I guess by us working on these writing sites, it helps to bring interest to the children, and encourage them to write and express themselves too. So, this is the extra benefit for parents who work on these writing sites. 😀

@morgoodie That’s a good idea. I haven’t find a way to promote forum coin yet,  though I wish to. It’s a site I really appreciate, Fergal is such a nice person, and I think we should help the site as well.

We should be able to promote ForumCoin there, right? Since we do not earn from any traffic from ForumCoin, but just to expose the site. 🙂

I like the bonus prizes EasyHits4u give away too, though they are just small bonuses, it’s fun to get any. 😀

@4cryingoutloud The businesses you would like to start up sound good!

My husband and I actually talked about this before, just for fun. We decided to just live the same as we are now, simple and frugal life. But, we will donate more money to the needs, invest the money in either property or share market, and then continue to live the life we have now. We will also keep low profile.

These are what I added: Perhaps we can also have a good meal dining out once in a while. 😀

I used to think of having my own business when I was younger, but now that I became a work from home mom, I really enjoy the life I have now. I enjoy the freedom of choosing and doing what I want to do, and also spending good time with my husband and children, so I don’t think of starting any business now. I am too lazy for that. But, I am interested in setting up an online business that I can also work from home.

May 12, 2016 at 11:38 pm

Yes, I received this message as well. Thank you for bringing this up. 🙂

May 12, 2016 at 7:11 pm

@rapidblue For your information, I did not delete the post I published in BlogJob. I just found that it was gone this morning or yesterday. I am thinking perhaps the admin there has restored the blog posts at the point the reward system was suspended, though I am not very sure about it.

I didn’t do so much research. Thank you for sharing your point of view and your findings too. 🙂

May 12, 2016 at 6:58 pm

@sunil That’s a good idea! I would love to read that, and I think it’s good to remind others as well. Sorry, but I am really not teasing you at all, I think it’s always good to learn from someone, even if it’s a mistake.

@dawnwriter I am sorry for your loss. That’s really painful, but glad that you are contented now. Though we might not be rich or beautiful from the outside, I believe we are rich in our inner selves. 🙂

@haraka I am sorry for your loss too. I understand that would be a very good reason to want to go back. Hope you will have that moment in your dream. 🙂

May 12, 2016 at 6:52 pm

@morgoodie Thanks. I am really glad to be here and have good time with you all too. I guess this is why I don’t mind if others think this is a slow earning site, as long as I enjoy being here and also I am learning a lot from here, why not?

I agree with @dawnwriter, sometimes it’s the community that matters more. Of course, seeing the earnings growing is a bonus as well! 😀

I am writing more posts now. I just think it might be good to learn and practice how to blog, which is good for us as well, isn’t it?

@haraka I agree with you! The same concept applied to my full time job too, it doesn’t really matter how much I earn, but I must enjoy the work first. If not, I don’t think I would like to go to work. I do the same in mylot as well, I just enjoy spending my time there reading and interacting with others, and the earning will just take care of itself.

Thanks for the wishes! It’s a baby boy. 🙂

@slayer08 Congratulations on reaching the first $1. More will come soon. 🙂
