Looking to Save Money on your Gas Bills during the Winter?

For those who live in areas that get downright bone chilling cold, it often makes us squirm to turn on the furnace. During the days when the furnace seems to run, and run... and run--we start to worry about the heating bill....

Winter can be just scary.  When you think about the arrival of your utility bills or the possible snow storm-its plays just a bit of havoc on our minds...

Now -I'm not the type who doesn't enjoy a nice pretty light snow fall. Snow can indeed be very beautiful. But when snow, the cold, and ice make things treacherous-It is definitely not any fun.

While we may enjoy being holed up in our homes playing board or video games, relaxing under a blanket reading a good book or enjoying a favorite movie-there are ways to be stress-free about the impending heating bills.

Some ways to save on heating our homes can actually be free or come at a low cost. Some of those ways involve simply putting on extra clothing or getting out your favorite afghan...

I wrote an article a few days that can offer you some tips on how to save money on your heating bills by including some of these very easy, cheap, and free tips to use in your home--feel free to check it out :) !

Overall, December was my best month in the last few months of part time writing. I think it was because I was trying to make extra cash for Christmas shopping too!

As for my goals for 2010, I would like to continuously make $600-$800 per month part time. Possibly $2-$300 per week would be nice. I continue to write for Associated Content and Demand Studios. I do need to do some more work with Edubook and hope to obtain other clients as well. Until then, I plan to carry out and add travel articles and all kinds of other interesting reads to this blog and keep you all in touch with my writing endeavors :)

May God bless you and all of your family throughout the new year.... I hope that 2010 brings us all much better things!...
