I'm trying to get the word out more and more about working at home. With companies like Microsoft having major layoffs, its imperative that we keep more irons in the fire. Companies do not have a lot loyalty to their employees and its best that you try and get as many side jobs as possible. Remember the rule ......Never Pay to Work!

Thanks
Today we're gonna party like its 2009! I would say 1999 but Obama was not President in 1999 so how much fun would that be? I am thoroughly excited about the inauguration of Obama because I actually had something to do with this election. The fact that many of us voted for the first time this year is meaningful (whether you were for or against Obama). It means we cared enough to change something! It was the first time in a long time that this country was in a major aggreement. We all agreed that it was time for a change to come!



Now it's time to party! I just don't know what to cook first. I know I am going to make a butter cake with chocolate sour cream icing and light sweet pecan crumb coat. As far as the Inauguration dinner, well hmmm.... since the Obama's forgot to send me a complimentary all expense paid ticket complete with airfare and lodging....I guess I will have to make something myself. I am thinking that maybe we should have some chicken Diegos (named after my baby boy).

Diegos are stuffed with chicken that has been sauteed with bell peppers and onions and placed along side some pepperjack cheese and rolled in homemade Indian bread and deep fried in cooking oil. On the side, I will serve some homemade salsa, sour cream, refried beans, and enchilada rice!

As for drinks, I am not too big on alcohol so I think I will make some virgin mojitos using lime juice, mint and ground vanilla sugar (compliments of my mocallete), and ginger ale.

I think that will be it....what....that's enough. Oh didn't I mention the only folks that will attend the party is the people that reside here! Look Obama is President ....he ain't paying for the party! We still have to be frugal!

With that being said I wanted to announce the fact that I will now bring you freebies and discounts along with more cost saving ways to survive in this economy!

Oh yes and job leads too (of course)!
Onpoint is hiring of course (you would have known that days ago if you followed my leads everyday at VV)

When life gives you lemons, make lemon cake! That's the way that saying goes right? Okay okay close enough. Life is giving me a nice bunch of lemonades right now and rather than plummet the idiots that have hurt me with the lemons, I think I will make a lemon cake.

Look its natural to want to seek revenge on employer when they have wronged you, but that's not the woman scorned way to handle it. When an employer disappoints you or fires you (no I was not fired) there is no reason to bash them or to hack into their website and .....well let's not go there. Since revenge is best served cold then take that anger and resentment and use it to get a BETTER job or to go into business for yourself. Who knows, your employer could have made the best mistake of your life. Their ignorance can be your inspiration.

GO get that new job (that pays more and makes your old job look like slave wages)
GO start that new business or teach that new class
Whatever you do, LIVE don't exist!

Here are a few companies that are actively hiring and they need you (to work from home of course):
Sutherland
LiveOps
Hilton
Cloud10
WorkingSol
Teletech
1800Flowers
1800Diapers
and More where that came from!

Ringing in the New Year means ringing out your wallets! Its time to pay the piper. This is the one time of year I know a rich guy with a ton of money wants me, but only for my money. Yes I am talking about everybody's uncle, UNCLE SAM! Its time for us to face to the music and as an independent contractor the music is playing the same old song.... "I need a deduction and I need it now, Uncle Sam thinks I'm a cash cow".

This time of year is just another wake up call for me, it reminds me that 1) I need to save more and 2) I need to get another job. I tell myself every year that its time I reach out and venture into more things, but it never happens. I figure it will be easier to save than it will be for me to actually step outside my working comfort zone.

To ease the transition I have decided to apply for another job (yes I did it) and I have decided to sign myself up with a freelance site or two. I figure this will give me an option to work if I want and pass if I prefer. Its way less pressure and I can get my feet wet doing something I love....writing!

Now on to being cheap. Anyone that knows me, knows I am VERY cheap. I enjoy a great sale, I shop the dollar stores and check the discount bins, and I love ideas on how to get even cheaper than I already am. With that being said I want you to check out one of my favorite chef's on Youtube.
