The Last Day of Writing Test Drive


(sigh)... Today was my last day of the test.

With it being the last day--and not to mention the last day of my 3 day break, I decided to take it a bit easy today. After two successful days, I do know that I can making my goals of writing at home a success. I rewarded myself with some lunch with friends, and had an easy dinner from Subway with my husband. Not to mention-I got one last afternoon nap in-it was quite nice!

The weather here was so rainy and so dreary today-it was just one of those days you wanted to stay in. While I did take it easy, I did get some writing done. I had an error to fix in one article, and then wrote three more today. I was checking my pageview earnings at Ehow, and I had earned $31.11 in just page-views for the month of September (which accounts for about two $15 articles anyway), and I had submitted those extra two articles to Associated Content yesterday. So I believe I deserved a bit of a break today.

I have to admit, it will be hard going back to the office tomorrow-but at least it is a Friday!... I do know that I can easily get used to being at home. My daughter isn't really looking forward to going to daycare ,and I know Miss Kitty will miss me as well. She has followed me around the house relentlessly for all of the 3 days I have been home. My cat has been quite the companion...

I really don't want to rush time-but I really want to know what the future holds... I guess after being spoiled for 3 days-I want an answer now...lol. But in reality-I know that isn't possible. After October-perhaps I can begin going to work 2 days a week, or begin writing full time.


For those who are interested...Here is what I wrote today:
  • Skin Care for Kids
  • How to Keep Rabbits out of Flower Beds
  • The Benefits of Organic Fertilizer
 Yesterday I submitted these two articles to Associated Content:
  • Birth Control Options for Teens
  • Activities for Children to do on Fathers Day at Church
My article earning the highest pageviews at Ehow.com currently is:
______________________________________________

I believe I have had a pretty successful trial run, and know that I could make all of this a possibility. Now I just have to play the waiting game, and continue to write in the evenings, or on the weekends until October is over. Thanks for all of those who tuned in to my trial run-and I will continue to keep sharing current articles that I am writing on :) --and also thanks for all the best wishes and good luck too! )

( *I will share the total earned in the 3 days once all of the articles have been published)
