Don't forget to turn out the lights for Earth Hour tomorrow

Tree with Lichen and Ivy


Gray day here.  Not cold, but raw...rained all last night.  Productive morning.  It's noon and I've already:

  • Applied for my 8th job at BNY Mellon
  • Chatted with Aunt Gladys
  • Researched and written a 500-word article on choosing a pet urn (this is for a site called textbroker.com.  - you log on, take a writing test, get assigned a skill level, browse open requests for articles to be written, choose one, write it, submit it, make any necessary edits, and get paid - unlike eHow, you don't own the content and you don't get any residual earnings, but you do get paid a flat fee [or later when you get to be in demand, a negotiated fee] at the time of writing - this client may ask me for more articles - don't get excited about the pay yet, it's only a penny a word, so my article paid me $5)
  • Walked to the Post Office and store in town
Don't forget that tomorrow is the celebration of Earth Hour.  At the same time all over the globe, little green people will turn off their lights to make a dent in our carbon footprint.  On the east coast, it's between 8:30 and 9:30 p.m.
