Well, the dry spell is over. Or, rather, things are picking up. June has been an utter financial disaster and I don’t look forward to picking up the pieces in July. But July is looking up. My client is swamped which means that I’m swamped. I just worked through the weekend and expect to put in sixteen hour days for the next week.

I’m spending what little free time I have building my Squidoo business. I know what you’re all thinking. Um, kind of frivolous? Nope. I have sold ebooks and made Amazon commissions from my lenses there that make the time invested so far equivalent to earning just over minimum wage. In other words, Squidoo has been worth my time more than has the last two and a half months of job hunting in Lethbridge. Believe me, I wouldn’t on that site if it wasn’t making me money!

I’ve been wanting to get into Squidoo for a long time, but something told me to wait. I’m glad I did. I am putting more than five years of internet marketing knowledge and experience into building a solid Squidoo business and it’s already paying off. I am doing with Squidoo what I had hoped to do with this blog and am seeing results much, much faster. In a way it’s a shame that I’ve waited so long, but in another I’m hitting the ground running and seeing results right away.

I’m clocking out for the night and off to curl up with a good book and a mug of hot tea as the rain continues to drum a tattoo on my roof.
