I had been blogging for a very short time when I heard that you could actually make money doing it.  A friend of mine told me she was making $200-$300 every two weeks just doing paid posts on her blog.  So, I thought I would check it out and see if I could make money at it.  Almost two years later, I am making some money, and I am loving it, but I feel like with the right connections, I could be making much more.  So when I heard about business2blogger, you can imagine how excited I was to check it out!!   They do all the hard work for you, FOR FREE!!! They connect the right businesses to the right bloggers and the right bloggers to the right businesses.  So, now that I am signed up with them, maybe I can finally start making some real money doing what I love to do!!  Thanks for a great opportunity guys!!

Be Blessed…

Hey everybody!! How’s it going?  Just wanted to share with you something I stumbled upon today!! My friend Jay and his friends have started a brand new business, Business2Blogger.  They are providing businesses a  way to connect with people who have connections on the internet to promote their products and/or services AND a way for us die-hard bloggers to make a little green doing what we love.  AND it’s free for the business and it’s free for us bloggers to get connected with each other!!  Head on over and see what all the fuss is about!!!

and of course,  as always,  Be Blessed!!

SAT tests…wow, that brings back memories.  It’s things like this that really make me feel old!!  I don’t even remember what I got on mine..does anyone? Maybe it’s just me, cause I don’t think I did real hot, but I don’t know.  Now you can actually study for them online with LSAT prep .  How’s that for convenient?? I think back when I took mine,the best they could do was a pamphlet that the school handed out…..sign of the times, eh??

Buster thinks he needs a new laptop computer.  The one we have is just this monster of a thing.  It has all the bells and whistles he wanted when he bought it, but it’s huge!! It isn’t comfortable to have to hold on your lap.  I found this out on our 8 hour derive to Kentucky last SUMMER.  Yes, I said summer, and it was HOT!!! Then I had this monstrosity of a computer on my lap.   Come to think of it,  I think Buster is right!! We need a new laptop, anyone know a good one that is inexpensive??

i will likely be gone for a week or more while my domain is transferred to another server, thank you for your patience while i do this!! see you soon!!

OK. This is my dilema….

I love to blog and I love to read blogs. I now live in an area where internet will either have to be off of a cell-phone service or dial up. Both of these are painfully slow. But in order to blog everyday and keep up on blogs I like, I would really need internet at home.

The other problem is I pay for my domain name and hosting for my site. I did have one through wordpress at one time, but they don’t like you to do paid posts on their blogs. And since I like to do paid posts now and then for Ebay money, I need a site where I can do so. So, do I go back to wordpress or blogger and just post when I can get to a computer with internet and forgo the paid posts or do I continue to pay for my site for the occasional diet pill post and deal with dial up or cell connection??

Or, do I just give up on the whole blogging thing in general??? I hate the thought of that, but I am busier and busier all the time anyway ,so I don’t know what to do????????????

Hubs and I are shopping for a new laptop.  The one he has now is just too big.   It is a 17 ” widescreen.  We like to use it when we travel and such, but because of it’s size,  it’s not real practical for that.  We have been looking for good laptop deals.  I would like to be able to use it to blog as well, so it has to have the right amount of RAM and disk space and all that. I hope we find one we like that we can afford soon.  Anyone have a favorite they can recommend??

Mama Kat’s writing assignment prompt #4 and A Thousand Words Thursday!!

I am so freakin’ lazy that I am  using this picture for both  meme’s.  The reason I amusing it it because I HATE pictures of myself.  I take them though because I like for people reading or looking at my sites to see who they are reading about and who the site belongs to.

Well, I usually have to take like thirty pictures before I find one I like.  Well, the other day I was thinking to myself, why not just take one right now, don’t fix your hair, don’t reapply make-up, just take it.  This is the first shot, and I am fairly happy with it.  Granted, I wouldn’t win a beauty pageant with it, but it’s decent!  For that I am thankful!! Click on the buttons above to check out other entries for each meme!!

Hi. Hi.  I just won an MP3 player in a giveaway!! And I also won some i-tunes gift cards.  What i am wondering is if you can use these gift cards with MP3 players ?  On the cards they say you can download music to i-pods and computers, but it doesn’t say anything about MP3 players.  I am about as helpless as they come when it comes to this stuff.  Anyone know anything about it??
