I don’t know if it’s being OC or not but most of the time when I’m blogging, I’m more spontaneous if I incorporate photos to my posts.  I feel like more ideas and thoughts are coming out.  And I think that my readers (if there are any) will have a clearer understanding of my topic and appreciate the post more.  Honestly, I am that way as a reader.  Usually, I just skim through my Google Reader in which I’m subscribed to hundreds of blogs but really pause for a while and read closely whenever my eyes come across interesting pictures.  I can really get particular on such just like, perhaps, before I take the safest diet pills if ever I need or I would.  I might do an intensive research first and make a compilation of clippings and articles about it.  Whether it’s being OC or not, I think there’s nothing wrong with being into details and a “segurista”.

Happy Tuesday everyone!

So how’s your day so far?  My morning was pretty good and productive.  After doing mommy duties (feeding and bathing the little one), I cleaned up the aquarium of Agua and Bendita, the little one’s goldfishes.  Then, I proceeded to start on my blog writing works.  I didn’t cook for lunch today and instead just requested the little one’s nanny to fry the eggplant and prepare the red salted eggs.  Yummy!  I would have done it myself but I needed to be on my lappy because of tight deadlines.   The little one had lugaw with quail eggs and malunggay, on the other hand.  In a while or as soon as the little takes his noon nap, I’ll be starting on my other work which involves some admin and coding tasks.  It actually reminded me of an assignment I once did at Odesk in which I “copied and pasted” prevera reviews for one site. 

I’m really thankful for having these work at home opportunities.  Very rewarding and easy and most importantly, I don’t need to get out of the house and leave my son behind.

Even though I have been deprived of internet connection this recent week, I feel so blessed still for all the online assignments that have been arriving in my online “work tray”.  As previously mentioned, I’m a freelance writer and my work consists of writing reviews to be published on blogs.  Even though these tasks come with deadlines, the good side of this is that I can work around my timelines.  A few have tight deadlines but most of them provide a longer turnaround time which I can relaxingly do anytime.  The pay is quite good, too.  That is why aside from setting aside for the household budget, I’m also saving up for a startup money to invest on precious metals.  I’ve always heard that buying gold is a good means to diversify one’s asset.  As a startup, one effective and promising way is to buy gold coins.  Just read from US Gold Bureau that it’s always the perfect time to do so because the yellow metal retains its value no matter what.

It’s a back to work mode for everyone and that includes me. So much for the slacking so here I am trying to organize tasks and accomplish that that have been delayed for so long. The first on my list is the task of uploading our holiday pictures before doing all my blogging tasks. I think it’s the OC-ness in me again that’s kicking in…I really just can’t journal without including the photos I’m blogging about.

Pardon for my lack of posts in the days to come.  The little one is sickly and so I have to devote all my time attending to his needs.  I’ll blog once everything gets better.
