Free Labor

That’s what I’ve been all day, today. With my job, I do not get paid hourly. I get paid for what I do, so the longer something takes, the less I make. If I have to go back to a house, I’m now losing money!

I’ve spent the whole day working on stuff that should have been finish days ago. And when I thought I was done, something else would come up. It is so frustrating.

I decided around 4, I was done working for free, and decided to start working on my to-do list for LF&B (my second job I don’t get paid for).

I added my Pinterest and Instagram account to the blog, today.

If you click on each one, it will take you to my page, and you can follow me.

You can also subscribe to my blog post via email. It will notify you when there is a new post.

Super exciting right!?!

And while I’m talking about stuff that took way to long to do, all my recipes can be found under the FOOD tab.

Oh, and while I’m at it, if you see something in blue font and underlined, that is a link that will take you to that website or blog post.

So, Follow Me and please use the recipe tabs. You wouldn’t believe how long these things took me!!

After a little blog maintenance, I photographed dinner from last night.

One of my favorite recipes! It’s so easy!!
