The Daily Grind

~ The 4th season of Once Upon A Time is on Netflix now! I definitely have to make some time to catch up on that show!

~ Did 20 situps tonight: 8+8+4. This is something I want to do more of on a regular basis, because it takes almost no time at all out of my night, and over time it'll help me get stronger and hopefully lose some of the extra weight I'm carrying.

~ Managed to catch both Latias and Keldeo in Pokemon Shuffle! :D Much happiness, because I didn't think I'd get either of them so quickly! If I can keep grinding away at the Latias level, though, I might be able to get a Latiasite so it can Mega Evolve, but I'm not sure my team's even strong enough to get that far anyway, so I don't know if it's worth trying and using up time that could be better spent on other levels.

~ I joined a few "get paid for doing surveys" sites last night, partly because I've had some luck with them in the past (from 1, I ended up getting about $40 in gift cards, and that was with me mostly slacking and missing out on a lot of potential surveys). Any rewards I get aren't going to make a huge difference to my budget, but even a little bit extra now and then can be helpful.

~ Because I had to wake up earlier than normal, I woke up even earlier than that, so I think I only slept for about 6 hours. My eyes are burning, but not so badly that I'll need to nap later. I think. But it was worth it, because I had a lot of fun at embroidery class.

~ Touch wood, but I think I'm on the mend and that stupid cold is finally leaving me!

Several years ago I was making much less money and had a lot more free time and I used to do surveys all the time. It is definitely not a way to earn money to like, get by or anything, but it's a good way to earn a little extra. I've been inactive for too long on a couple of the sites so they deleted my account and I can no longer see my stats, but for one I logged in recently because a friend was asking about it and I found that I had earned like $500 in five years of using the site.

The sites I used to use were mysurvey, opinion outpost, and global test market. Opinion Outpost is the one I still have an account with, but I probably made at least that much with those other two sites as well. Opinion Outpost is also great because you can cash out after only $3, plus if you get like amazon credit, they send you the email with the code immediately rather than taking a few days to process. So if you want to buy something on amazon, you can get your credit right then.
