Just Something I Whipped Up

This article may include affiliate links. Please see our disclosure policy for full details.

Boy am I tired today! Yesterday we hosted a pool party at the house for the very first time for my daughter’s birthday and it was like 100+ degrees out (it felt like it anyhow!) and HUMID! I was soaked the whole day but the kids had a great time. We had nearly 40 people here including kids and parents and my pool looked like a community pool. It was kind of funny!
I should have charged admission. I would have cleaned up! lol Kidding, of course. 🙂

Speaking of money, I’m torn. I really feel like I should contribute to the household financially somehow and blog design would make the most sense since it’s something that I know how to do and can work at my own pace but I’m just not feeling it. It’s just real mentally draining for me and with a newborn at home, I just don’t know that I have the energy. I thought of also putting my premade templates on Etsy and seeing how that goes as well as creating the design elements like papers, etc and selling them on Etsy too but I don’t know. I’m so undecided. I hate making decisions. Ahhhhh…………I’m just going to have to pray and see what God wants me to do.

Okay……..it’s time for Just Something I Whipped Up! What have you been working on this week? Inspire me!

A pool party does sound fun...but tiring...and those temperatures (it was 58 here...ick!)! How do you do this all with a newborn? Good luck with your decision about finances - such a hard one especially with little people in the house.

Good luck with whatever you choose to do financially. I SO understand, as I am in the same boat. I have been contemplating going back to an outside of the home job for a little while. I am still trying to give my painting home business a go, but it is going sooo slow. God Bless!

PS Stop by sometime to tiarasandbowties.blogspot.com. I may be looking for a blog update soon and since I don't have the skill for that...i may be looking towards having it done by someone else soon.

Premade templates sound really good. Can't beat residual income!
