Can you make money working from home?

 


It is that time of year again where I am pondering the possibility of taking the summer off of work. School will be out and I will be unemployed, however, can I afford it? Probably not.

So, as I search for summer employment, I was wondering if it is truly possible to work from home?

There are so many schemes it is so hard to decipher who is legitimate and who is a con artist. As of this writing, I have no solution.

Maybe some of you do?

I've attended several colleges and universities. So, I really looked into WGU before attending.
I must say. I made the right choice!

For those of you considering going back to school. WGU will help you along the way. It is an all on-line program. You do the work at your own pace. I found that because of this I am able to get several classes finished in no time. I am hopeful that I will have 9 classes done this term.

Seriously. Take a look.

Ant season

It's the beginning of spring. We see the buds on the trees, the flowers coming up in our yards, and ants entering in the familiar places in our homes.
We have battled ants before. But, I didn't want to do the pesticide route nor did I want to purchase ant traps again.

I found a recipe that called for Borax and jelly. Basically you use equal parts. 1 teaspoon of Borax and 1 scant teaspoon of Borax. It said to place it on a piece of cardboard or a paper plate because when it dries, it will be very hard to clean off. You can buy Borax at Walmart in the laundry section. My box was under $4.00.

I had nothing to lose. I had some moldy jelly and the Borax. I mixed it up, put it on a small piece of cardboard, and set it on the counter.

IT WORKS!!!

I have a bunch that are already dead and still more are coming.

We have several points where the ants come in, I'm going to try it in other places as well. I would caution placing this mixture where other animals can get it. I'm not sure about the toxicity to other animals.
