In my “office” (i.e. the dining room) it’s hard to think because it’s cold out. Oh well I guess, the show must go on!
Entrecard - I’m not doing as well as I could be on Entrecard because I haven’t been putting forth the effort. I’ve been visiting websites and dropping my card and using the advertising, but as far as moving points from one account to another and really concentrating on getting my blog(s) “out there” I haven’t been working much.
I’ve actually been busy working on other projects. I’m trying to re-vamp and re-animate Starryskye Designs and bring it back from the “dead” …. now THAT’S a site I’ve ignored lately. I’ve also been working on my HOUSE trying to get my studio/crafting room unpacked and organized. I’m working on a tangible career move, really. I’ve got a lot of work to do though.
I’m trying as hard as I can to not have to get a job outside the house so I don’t have to put my kiddo in daycare. Nothing wrong with it at all - I just like staying home and playing with him 
I have notice a clear causal relationship between my activity and the benefits I draw from using Entrecard.
The more I reciprocate, the better traffic I get.
Then too, I branch out (your site is one of those branches!) because the 125×125 ad is intriguing (yours was!) or the name or whatever.
I decided to get a bunch of my ‘brain’ work done earlier in the day and then, after dinner when I’m getting less effective with my other work, I get in here and do EC as it’s kind of mindless.
I know if you are very busy and have children, that might be a tall order.
I do this for a living too, so I might have a better chance at it. (and my daughter is grown and in the Navy!)
This is truely one of those ‘you get out what you put into it’ kind of things.
I hope you can see the benefits like I have. I went from getting 5-6 visits a day to over 50 a day right at the moment. Oh, it varies. It’s a HUGE improvement though!

Hey, I hear you. We’re almost finished building our house and I can’t wait to have my own office space there. I have all of these grand ideas floating around in my head (plenty of space up there apparently) and want to streamline them into a true business possibility. I love being home with the kiddos and I’m not ready to give that up. But…I also love to shop and need some serious DOUGH!
Good luck to us both!
