May has been a busy month. Filled with moving to a new state and finding new jobs, among other things. Not much time was spent on the blog at all, but still somehow, some things kept going on their own. Weird!
**Every month I put together a traffic and income report for Because I’m Cheap. It helps me stay transparent for my readers (I’m just an average girl hustling) while also helping me keep on track and keep working. If you’d like to see other months, you can see the directory here.**

Highlights of the month:
This month I did do a few behind the scenes kinda things. I went through various social media and started blocking MLM accounts and unfollowing irrelevant accounts. Oh yeah and blocking dozens of spam accounts from following me. Freaking smut out there guys… Still much to do, but there was a dip from weeding some of them out. The income this month looks great, but what sucks about online work is that you aren’t always paid quickly. Waiting on my Benjamins still, but they’ll come 🙂
