Earning Money! Woohoo!

No, I didn't go out and get a job. I can assure you that won't be happening anytime real soon, especially now that #2 is well on his way! Have you seen the costs of Daycare these days?! Ridiculous. Anyways... back to earning money. 

I always thought that to make money from home you had to sell something like cosmetics or jewelry or handbags... and you had to host parties or go set up a booth... either way, I would fail (and have failed) at these business ventures-simply because I am a TERRIBLE salesperson. I hate asking people to spend money, mostly because I myself hate to be asked to spend money. I thought it was impossible to really just be able to do work online and get paid for it. Not legitimately or legally, anyway. I'm sure most online work-from-home business ventures are a scam... in fact, I know they are! I've looked into them. Thankfully for people like me, though, there are a few legitimate work-from-home opportunities. I stumbled onto one just last week and boy am I excited! It's called MCA.

MCA is the Motor Club of America. It's similar to AAA but with more benefits. I am an Associate with MCA, which means that I go out (or in my case, stay in) and find people that are interested in becoming a MCA member or Associate (like me!). It's SUPER easy: I post FREE ads online in places like Craigslist, Backpage, and Facebook. I also occasionally make a YouTube video to generate more interest. The bottom line: I copy and paste ads into different websites. When people email me that they are interested in the company, I send them more information. When/if they decide to become a member/associate, I get paid $80. Tada! Easy money couldn't be easier. I personally post ads while Jo is eating. It's easy for me to sit at the table with my computer and get my "work" done while she is occupied with her latest meal. I still have PLENTY of time to play with her and clean and cook and take care of all of my other responsibilities. Like I said: EASY!

The way I look at it is this: of course the benefits with MCA are great (Dental/Rx/Vision Discounts, Travel/Hotel Discounts, Stolen Auto Reward, 24 Hour Dispatch Emergency Road Service, Emergency Travel Expense, Travel Itinerary Service, Auto related Legal Assistance, etc.) but what's even better is helping others figure out that there is a way to stay at home and earn money that is TOTALLY do-able! Who can't copy and paste a paragraph or two into a list of websites that is handed to them? Not anybody I know!

Bottom line: I market a product/service. When someone I have recruited signs up, I make $80. When they sign someone up, I make $6. So I also get residual income from my sign-ups (which is GREAT!). I get paid weekly. I get my own website. I don't have to put on real clothes or leave the house. It's a win win in my book! Do you know anybody who could use some extra income? Let me know! I'll be happy to get them started TODAY! 

Feeling Blue-in a good way!

Scrolling back through my Facebook posts this morning, I realized that I blogged about what gender this baby would be, but never posted results! Blogger Fail! In the interest of attempting (mostly failing, but still attempting!) to keep up with this blog, here's our latest baby news:

You aren't seeing things: It's a BOY!!!!

Our handsome little finger sucker is looking absolutely perfect. He's very active and easy-going (at least that's my interpretation of his ultrasounds!). I simply cannot wait to meet him. He has been the very easiest pregnancy I could imagine. Hopefully the rest of it goes just as the quickly as it has up to this point!

We feel very blessed to have a perfect princess and now a handsome little man on the way! Adam is (of course) THRILLED that he finally gets his little boy-I can't wait to see him interact with a little man. I can't help but wonder what the differences are going to be! We shall see soon enough!

Now is the time to get busy making all the cute little boy accessories... I feel like there aren't a whole lot of adorable boy things out there so if I pick out fabrics and patterns and do it myself I'm sure to love them! 

That's all the news I have for now-Hope ya'll have had a wonderful week so far! "Bye, Ya'll!"
