I know I have been missing in action, but wow I totally forgot how exhausting it is having a child.  Well, here’s a glance at my life the last week.

Brady was born on Valentine’s Day at 8:30 pm.  We had went to the hospital at 6:00 am that morning so it was a long day, especially since I wasn’t able to eat.  And for you momma’s you know how hard it is not to eat when you are 9 months pregnant lol.  Well, everything went great and we were discharged from the hospital the following evening.  I even had my tubes tied, which I can’t lie it was emotionally difficult to do, but I know at 34 I didn’t want to have any more kids, because I want to be able to provide for the our two kids the very best we can.  And I felt I did it for them.

After being home with Brady for 5 days we noticed he was a little yellow and figured he must be a little jaundice.  We had a blood test done to make sure everything was ok, but boy were we wrong he was VERY jaundice.  They admitted him into the hospital within a couple hours.  Which was VERY hard on me, considering Bella is almost 4 and I still haven’t left her a single night.  Well, I went back to the hospital for some feedings throughout the night and he was released yesterday morning at 10:30 am (thank you Jesus).

We are all back home, but he has to stay under lights until all the jaundice goes away…. poor little guy.  Besides all of that he was perfect and truly gorgeous!  Oh I almost forgot he weighed 8 lbs 11 oz and was 21 1/2″ long.  He looks like a 3 month old little guy :D

I know I have posted about Credit Sesame before, but it’s still FREE and they are truly amazing!!!!  I would recommend their service to ANYONE, it’s 100% free personal finance credit and debt management tool with no credit card required and NO trial period. Credit Sesame makes managing personal credit online, owing less in interest and saving on mortgage, loan & credit card payments easy! It gives an instant view of consumer’s credit, including Experian credit score, refreshed monthly & for free, & debt analysis with personalized offers tailored to consumer’s credit profile.

I have been using Credit Sesame for a few months now AND I can’t express how much I love it!  I feel it’s as good or even better than others I have paid for in the past!

 

Assess your current situation by getting your Experian Credit Score and Profile. You can view total loans, debt, payments as well as your debt-to-income ratio. It helps you find the best mortgage/refinance rates. The best part about this is these are rates you actually should qualify for since it bases it off the credit info. No wasting time on forms just to see if you qualify. You can also use it to check out loan and credit card options with “optimize”. This will help you towards a goal of being debt free. Best part it is you can adjust your goals and profile to give you the best chance of succeeding.

It’s Monday already…  can you believe it?  I’m super excited because I still haven’t had “Brady” so that means I will be getting induced tomorrow morning at 6:00 am :D   As far as last week went making money from home, I didn’t meet my goal of earning a extra $250 per week, but I was close.  I ended the week making $192.

I hope you can find some inspiration to make extra money through Making Money Monday.   My true to desire is to eliminate all debt… including my mortgage within 10 years!!! I currently sell on eBay and Amazon daily.  I also use Google Adsense, Escalate Network, Logical Media, Mysavings, CJ, Sponsor Tweets, Share a Sale, You Data and Chitika as affiliates on my blog to make some extra money.

I’m often asked “what do you sell on eBay and Amazon”.  And my answer is always the same… household items.  Such as food, cleaning items, make-up, toys, books,  or anything that ships easy.  You can make money on ANYTHING as long as you buy for less than it’s worth.  For example if you buy a book for $5 that sells at Walmart for $20, you can double your money easily

Have you had any good or bad experience selling online
