I did my first online focus group last night, very cool, easy, and fun... Plus $50 to boot, not too shabby for an hour and a half sitting in my own home and typing!

Plus I'm doing a snack food survey where I keep track of all the snack foods I eat for two weeks, on a palm pilot they supplied me. Then after the two weeks I return the palm in a pre-stamped envelope.... for $70.

And I've gotten two free samples to try out and then take a survey on. The one I'm doing right now if for some wonderful smelling body wash...

The Mystery Shopping isn't going as well because there are not many jobs in the area... But with DH's new part-time job (and hopefully full-time eventually) where he goes to daycares and pet stores to take pictures of kids and pets, he'll be traveling to the Wausau area where there are more jobs.
So I could go with, help with the shoot (being a handler for the pets or writing down information), and then afterwards we could head over to the mystery shop for me to complete. And then I would be getting more jobs....

I'm still looking for work otherwise, but still no luck. I put an ad in the paper yesterday for babysitting, so hopefully something turns up there.

Thought of the Day: No matter how depressing it may be, keep trying and think positive. I truely believe that if you send out positive energy, you receive it back to you... but not always in the way you were hoping...
