Second Article Took All Day

Second Article Took All Day

Greetings Eager Beavers!
My free time is not as abundant as it used to be, with this new relocation and job transfer. I get about 2 hours a day to do something, before making an 80 mile drive into work for an hour. Yes, here in good old Florida, we can make that happen in little over an hour. So I spend my weekends trying to bang out an article or make some site changes.

Well after 2 months of being back here, I finally got the affiliate bootcamp site to my liking. I did buy a pro version of a theme and a domain, I figured it was worth the cost. I spent the weekend before last changing my theme and getting fonts set to what I want, sizes, colors, etc. All in all I am picky and it took me like 15 hours to sort it out. Not sure how long you guys take, but I figure when I do stuff the first time it takes me longer than most, I'll get quicker.

This weekend I sat down to create a new second article. This time I wanted pictures and to try to go the best route I could think. After taking time constructing pictures, uploading and inserting, it gets lengthy. I am no english major, count on me as the math brain. I used the content creator here, which works with Grammarly! Which I also used on this post too...

Took me all day to put it together. I was constantly thinking what header next, which content to discuss, I was so scatter brained, perhaps trying to sabotage myself? Who knows. I held it together and got the post done before sunset!

I finished up my night watching The Patriot. Let's see what happens! My first article didn't get indexed so I'll have to keep it there as a lesson. Well, day job time. Enjoy your day fellow WA'ers!
