Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.

Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.

As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rarely ever wrong.

Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect in it’s weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.

Read this on wahm.com message board, it is two funny, “eye yam i’m pressed”, halve two right it down.

This is a list of 51 ways to say to your child ‘I love you’. The idea behind the list is to give parent s a wide variety of ways to share some special moments with their children and to use actions instead of words to say “I love you”.

This comes from a handout my son’s teacher gave me a couple years ago, I have kept it for two years and I just want to “publish” it here and share it with other parents.

1. Say “I Love You” to your child every day in many ways.

2. Give yourself a 10-second timeout before dealing with your child when you are angry.

3. Take a walk with your child. Talk about the smells and sights along the way.

4. Look for a rainbow, a pretty leaf, a perfect spider web.

5. Work a puzzle with your child.

6. Listen to your child’s laughter. (Bet you feel a smile coming on!)

7. Visit a library with your child. Pick out some books to read together and some records to listen to together.

8. Make cookies with your child. Then have a party and eat them together.

9. Ask your child to draw a picture that says “Love in the family.”

10. Read the comic section of your Sunday paper together.

11. Be sure to pay attention when your child talks to you.

12. Make a list of positive words. Refer to it often when talking to your child.

13. Make up stories to tell your child.

14. Plan a trip to the zoo. Find pictures of zoo animals and talk about them with your child.

15. Learn a new song with your child. Sing to your child often. Teach your child the songs of your childhood.

16. Involve your child in preparing a special meal.

17. Make bread from scratch on a rainy day.

18. Set a good example for your child by never using words that hurt.

19. Talk to your child about what to do in an emergency.

20. Declare every day a “Hug Day.” Ask for hugs for yourself.

21. Go outdoors to play with your child. Enjoy the fresh air.

22. Help your child help you keep your home clean. Start with easy chores that your child can do.

23. Watch a television program with your child. Pick one that is age appropriate and talk about it afterword.

24. Go to a park. Everyone play.

25. Praise your child every day.

26. Model and teach your child not to use hitting to solve problems.

27. Get together with other parents. Share experiences.

28. Do something nice for yourself. Have a trusted friend watch your child.

29. Find something to laugh about with your child every day. Give yourself permission to be a little silly with your child.

30. Display your child’s “artwork” prominently and proudly.

31. Take a few minutes to sit and rock your child when you both feel like resting.

32. Invite your child’s playmates to your home, then provide a safe place to play.

33. Most children love water. Take a walk in the rain, go swimming, play with bubbles, get out the sprinkler, find sieves, cups, funnels and plastic toys for bathtub fun.

34. Take your child to a museum. Talk about what you see. Answer questions carefully.

35. Pack a picnic lunch together. Cut sandwiches into interesting shapes, make “veggie creatures.”

36. Tell your children special stories about their own beginnings - how they looked, cut things they did as tiny babies - things that make them unique in all the world.

37. Think up your own “field trips.” How about your local fire house, a pumpkin patch, an apple orchard, a farm.

38. Rent a movie that you can enjoy with your child. Make popcorn and have your own “Saturday Night at the Movies.”

39. Help your child look forward to bedtime. Develope a quiet ritual that could include a war bath, warm towels, a bedtime story, some cuddling, a healthy snack.

40. Have confidence in your children so they can develop a sense of self-confidence.

41. Play all kind of music for your child. Sing and dance to the rhythms together.

42. Give your child choices. “Do you want to help clear the table or wiple the dishes?”

43. Remember to say “I’m sorry” to your child.

44. Reinforce positive behavior.

45. Teach your child to solve problems. Ask “what do you think we should do?”

46. Tuck a love note in your child’s lunch box, back pack, coat pocket or under the pillow.

The following are my ideas:

47. Check your child’s school work and homework.

48. Talk with your child’s teacher about how your child does at school.

49. Visit interesting kids websites with your child.

50. Play fun and educational games with your child.

51. Make crafts with your child together.

I am working on a REAL work at home directory - a directory that lists:

1. Legitimate companies that have telecommuting jobs;
2. Legitimate and practical home based business opportunities;
3. Various money making and income opportunities (not a job or a home business)
4. Best work at home resources - websites that are truly helpful and provide honest and comprehensive information.

The purpose of this directory is to provide a comprehensive and well categorized work at home reference, helping people quickly and easily find and research work at home jobs and business opportunities. I realized that there are tons of “work at home directory” websites already, but I am dedicated to make this one unique and truly helpful.

While using this directory, please make sure to read the description of each category carefully. Since some categories could list real companies that offer work at home telecommuting JOBs, others list home based business opportunities or other work at home resources. It’s important to know and understand what you are looking for and expect.

Building this directory will be a working progress, meaning it will not be done overnight. While I am doing my research on work at home ideas and opportunities, I will gradually expand the listing. So please come back from time to time, since it is very likely there are new listings added since your last visit.

Each listing on this directory is the result of my own independent research or from my personal experience, meaning I will NOT list anything unless I have looked into it or have tried it myself. So I am very confident this directory WILL BE the best work at home directory and resource.

If you have any experience (positive or negative) with any companies or websites on this directory, please feel free to contact me to share your story, and your comments and suggestion are always welcome and appreciated.

You can always access the directory through the Work At Home Directory link located at the top menu.

I have been a Pinecone Research member for over 3 years. I really enjoy my survey experience with Pinecone. I usually receive 1-2 surveys every month, and get paid $5.00 for each survey the next business day via Paypal. Their payment has always been very promote and reliable. I also like to do their surveys which are interesting and easy to do.

Right now Pinecone are paying new members $3.00 for each survey, and payment can be through check or Paypal. As I have mentioned, you can find Pinecone signup banner and link right here whenever they are accepting new members.

The sign up process is really quick and easy. The Pinecone sign up screen looks like this:

(I received the confirmation email the next day) If don’t receive the confirmation email it is likely you are not accepted but you still can try signing up later.

One thing I want to remind everyone is it is AGAINST Pinecone’s policy to discuss survey and product testing experience with Pinecone publicly. When you sign up with Pinecone, you agree to keep those information confidential. And this is actually what you should do for ALL paid survey and market research companies.

I really like Pinecone Research a lot. Yes I make more money with a number of other paid survey sites, but Pinecone is still my favorite. It has interesting surveys and product testing opportunities, Their compensation is fair and very reliable, and they are the fastest paying survey company.

You can work at home making money either by making crafts for yourself (Crafting Home Business) or for somebody else (Home Crafting Jobs).

Crafting Home Business

For those who are creative and good at artwork and craft making, a crafting home business is a good work at home option. You can making and selling your OWN arts and crafting products.

Most people who successfully working at home doing crafting run their own crafting business. They are creative and make high quality and unique arts and crafts. The kind of crafting products you can make is just endless - greeting cards, jewelry, pottery, artwork, candle, bags and purses, clothing, bookmarks, calenders, blankets, quilt and many many others that you can ever imagine. You can sell your arts and crafts online or at local art fairs or shows. Many crafting business owners sell their products on their own website, EBay and Etsy .

Home Craft Assembly Jobs

There are companies offer home crafts assembly jobs. Usually they require you buy a start up kit which contains training instructions and basic supplies to make the first few crafts to try out.

However, many people found out that the home crafting jobs don’t work for them, simply because the crafting companies won’t pay you until your work pass their very strict inspection, and most of the time your work will NOT pass the inspection. Sure there are people who can pass the inspection but many can’t and therefore end up LOSING money doing home crafting jobs. You probably have heard lot of people complain that home craft assembly are scams mainly due to this reason.

Disciple’s Cross

Disciple Cross is a company I would recommend for those who want to make money doing home craft assembly but don’t have his/her own product line. Many people are making money with Disciple’s Cross because Disciple Cross grants you resell right and Disciple Cross’s necklaces are quite easy to sell. Some people even buy the products from wholesale and sell them to make a profit. Disciple Cross does have a buy back program but lot of people think the their inspection is very strict and difficult to pass. Of course there are people who CAN pass inspection and make money. But basically everyone agrees that the best way to make money with Disciple Cross is to make and sell the products yourself. You can sell the necklaces to local schools and churches for fundraising, you can sell them at local Christian bookstores, local craft stores, jewelry shops and beauty salons and even bakeries. Of course you can sell them online. Anywhere there is retail traffic people will take interest in these cross necklaces.  Another tip for making the Disciple Cross necklace is purchasing the pre-bent nails off the net, because bending the nails is not easy to do, and using those low cost pre-bent nails will make the job a lot easier. You can buy the pre-bent nails at http://www.angelcross.org.
