Well, I’ve been at this since May 2006. I received my first check October 2007 from AdSense. It was a slow road shuffling along with little skill and even less time.
Since my last check 3 months ago I am over 1/3 of the way to getting check #2! That is with a painfully slow December with several zero earning days! I have some time off this week and plan to work on my internet ventures. Recently my rare time off has been filled with holiday preparations (well worth it!). A few weeks ago my day off consisted of working on my heater. At least I was able to fix it and take the time off so we had heat that night. Yes……we do get cold in AZ….below freezing some nights!
I got a promotion at my group home job that won’t include more money (I just got a raise in Oct), but will allow more flexible hours and a day off more frequently. Right now I work a regular 40 hour week at Wal-Mart (had overtime over the holidays) and 30 hours during my two days off from them at the group home. Recently I agreed to assist with a few extra projects with the group home job. I believe these changes will allow more energy left over for my internet ventures.
