    I was invited to join a writing site.  Unlike the crowd, I do my research first.  I have been on so many sites since 2007 that I am qualified to write this article.

    In ancient days a writing venue would pay for w […]

    • What sites according to you are trustful to write articles for?

      • As of this minute; this site, Mylot and possibly, Niume… although I was paid once from Niume I am not yet fully convinced

    • This is so true, I have tried many sites in the past some have been great some have been awful. I gave up on writing online for a while but am trying some new sites out now. This being one of them.

      • This site is pretty good. But let me warn you. if you write factual pieces the A.I. might flag you for plagiarism. For example, if you write; “Cyclone Debbie caused major damage, torrential rain and power cuts to tens of thousands of homes”. Your item will be flagged because that is how the BBC describes it.

    • Very well said, and it is true as we online writers had experienced. I am glad Literacybase and myLot are included in your list of trusted sites.

    • Thanks for the info. I am on two writing sites only and more active in LB. I guess it’s because I am new and yet to get paid. I have been off LB for days now, due to work. I have been so busy in the office lately, once I get home, I’m tired.

    • Tried many sites and many were fake, but still have faith

    • Have you ever enter short story writing comptions?
      like what writer digest has

      • I entered one at webooks which deteriorated into a zoo… because crapwriter got the most votes because he had duals and friends.

    • I can relate, especially when our daughter was just a kid and is already going to school in her primary grades.

      I have to think of what our helper will cook for breakfast while I am at the office about to go home. It has to be rice with a viand like sausage , eggs and the like and that she should have milk. That being so, it will also be our breakfast of course.

      Lunch too would be thought as to what already, in the evening before the day. And so with dinner.

      I always take into consideration our child. Good thing for us, we can eat whatever she eats. And since she’s a kid and picky, I have to make them palatable and yet healthy.

      It’s hard indeed to be a working mother. You work and you meantime should think of what to cook, since our kid goes to school.

    • I agree it take into your mind all the effort and all the fridge too, you will think what i have , what this like and what that like, how to cook it in oven or use the stove, shall i do it that way or that way, ok maybe they will east little so to make that amount of half the amount, ok then when to do it now , or later. its hard and needs effort just to thing and decide what to eat and what to cook for us, make the plate that all of the family like also is hard, think and think to find something, the things for us is that we are not many so we like to eat light breakfast like eggs and cheese and tea of course, but lunch is what make me think and change lots and lots and lots, maybe doing list for every day weekly good thing, i did not try that but maybe, i have to do that alone any way and no helper nor assistant from the family as i like to do what i like in the kitchen and take my time then go put on the table

    • I share your frustration in learning how to drive.

      I actually was already learning how to drive through my husband. However, once with my hubby on the other side of the front seat and me on the driver’s seat, I tried to drive. It was at first slow and smooth until I saw a big truck coming. I got so nervous imagining that i might hit my side when we are already near with each other.

      I drive the car on the side and stopped and told my husband, I can’t drive.

      From then on, I never tried again. Now, whenever I see my batchmate driving her car from our practice, I would feel a little envious that she could drive.

      Though, I don’t let her big 4 by 4 car go inside the small rough road going to our neighborhood because I fear that it might not fit and scratch on the small road with both sides of concrete fence. ha ha ha

      She too is nervous of trying to let her car go in. So, I would be dropped by the main road and would walk a small distance to our house. ha ha ha

    This morning after I posted a blog and read and commented on some blogs here, I dressed to come out and walk, my usual morning daily walk.

    But as I go out, I noticed the dark clouds […]

    • Yes, I even posted that it’s already summer already, since the past 5 days before today, it was so sunny always. But last night too it rained a bit. Then this morning it was a bit gloomy and it drizzled. But as of now, I can see the sun shining again.

      Well, I like it if summer is like this- a rain once in a while. At least, it won’t dry the fields and the plants and will not be so hot.

      But as to exercising, I just exercise at home, in our bedroom actually, in the space like a small sala , while my hubby sleeps. No need to go out. I just dance like crazy so all my body will be shaken. I do dancing, some dumb bells exercise and the tummy trimmer. At least, it helps me to lose some unwanted fats, even for a bit. ha ha ha

      • That’s the positive side of it. The weather became cooler, until now, the sun is not shining so hot unlike in the past days.

        It is good you religiously exercise even inside your bedroom. That’s great!

    • This day it rains so hard here and thankful for my decision to time out under time because I see dark clouds . I was so afraid . I remember the last months flood in our university when 5,000 were stranded, water height was so high. When i arrived home the rain dropped so hard. I am afraid I will wake up too early tomorrow to avoid walking again in muddy road where the bridge is still on renovation, We feel so sad whenever it rains here,yes it is summer but ket us be thankful that there is rain sometimes to let plants grow and survive.

      I hope you can have your usual activity tomorrow.

      • So it is also raining in your place? Yes, it could be a blessing in disguise because plants and trees will become green, so with the farmers’ crops. They can have water even it is already summer.

        Thanks, I guess it will not rain tomorrow morning.

    • Very useful article for garden lovers. Especially for those who would want to grow organic vegetable in their own garden. I used to put seeds of leafy vegetables and they used to grow in the garden without much effort similarly chilli, lady’s finger, brinjal and tomato too used to grow easily. Now we are having the season of mango’s and they are growing well and so do we have coconut trees and guava. If one likes to spend time and do gardening it is very good. Gardening also acts as a therapy.

      • Yes, gardening is so easy, and plants grow easily if the soil is good, along with the weather, and of course it needed to be tended regularly. It is indeed a stress-reliever.

    • It is very nice and useful to garden.

      • Yes, it is good to have your own mini garden out of cuttings from the vegetables you bought from the supermarket or market. Some vegetables like carrots, pechay (the one in the photo), beet roots, usually have some roots in it, so you have to cut the upper portion and leave an enough amount at the base with the roots and you can plant that stump. Soon it will grow.

    • We do not need to spray pesticides because eventually it will be absorbed by the plant and it will endanger our health. It will also poison the soil. Yes, gardening is a nice activity.

    • How I like to have veggie garden at home, but we have smaller space in the city unlike in the province.When I was a teenager, I liked to live in the province for I liked to plant fruits and vegetables, but when I graduated in college and acquired a property in the city the house and lot and work here too, I no longer had planted a single veggie and fruit.At home this time grown in the yard two grown ups moringa hehehehe. Every morning, as usual as a Filipino with east breakfast usually fish tinola and we add some moringa leave and tomatoes, onion, that always make our day fulfilled.

      • Hi Cely! You can plant too using pots or recycled containers, as others do in urban gardening. Anyway, you can plant in your province when you are on vacation.

    • Gardens so nice, my teens love it and set lot of hours, plated garden still should be given lots of work and sttnetion and this and that, like spending money for the soil and the plants it selves, but its good thing to enjoy at the end of the day or morning when you wake up hold you cup of hot chocolate and enjoy the view

      • Having your own vegetable garden is really nice. You feel a sense of accomplishment and it is really nice to watch the plants grow.

    • Gardening is really good, it can relieve you of stress, and produce your own food. But as much as possible, do not use pesticides because it is harmful to the body and to the environment.
