All this time

2011-10-28T10:17:00.004-04:00

The Author of this post is Velma Baird Who would have thought after all this time I would end up here? I love making music but being a music producer was something I never would have thought I would be doing at this phase in my life. LA is a great place to live if you want to do this and there’s a lot of opportunity but there’s a lot to do on the business side of things, too. It’s hard for

Upcoming couples camping trip

2011-08-30T12:37:00.000-04:00

Guest post written by Gabrielle Stevens Now that our kids are off in college and not around the house all the time, we're doing things that we put off doing for years before. Just one of those things is planning a really big couples trip for us and some of our closest couple friends. As much as I miss having my kids around all the time, it's nice to do things like this whenever I'd like. I

Moving!!!!

2011-08-28T12:37:00.000-04:00

This week I am finnally moving. I am in school and I will be living in the city again. It's bitter sweet though as I have met someone really great and now have to see what happends, but it's all a good thing and I think even if we don't make it we will still be friends. That is a hard part about moving. You meet people before you move that you wish you had met months before. The good news is my

Flordia Dreaming

2011-07-17T18:50:00.001-04:00

I have a friend who has a home in Florida, she doesn't live there all year, but she goes to visit a lot. She recently decided to do a search for a Hyundai Dealer In South Florida, specifically a West Palm Beach Florida Hyndai dealer, since that would be close to her. She decided she doesn't want to drive to her vacation home anymore, she wants to fly, but she will still need a car to get around,

Things Stolen and given back

2011-07-16T09:04:00.000-04:00

I was coming here to write about my week and events that happend when I saw on my cute Amazon Associates box the book shown to the right. The title alone made me think I should write this post in a different way, so I am. Last week a friend of mine was stolen from me, she passed away in her sleep and even though I had not talked much to her in the last few years we were close as teens. The

Starting Over

2011-06-22T13:54:00.000-04:00

I've been thinking more and more about how nice it will be to start over in a new place. Yes I am moving to an area I have lived before, but it's different and it's big and I only know a few people so it will be nice. Not that I have a lot I regret from my life now, but so many people in my small town have this image of me. It's either a great image or a bad one. Some think I'm perfect and it's

Saving Moolah

2011-06-20T07:26:00.000-04:00

Guest post of the week by Brittany Booker I was online the other day when I came across a link but told me to click here for reduced energy rates in my area. I don't usually buy that kind of thing, but this one seemed particularly compelling so I clicked it… And here I am a week later set up to save lots of money already! I've decided I'm going to try to figure out some additional ways to

Moving and Going to School

2011-06-16T08:43:00.002-04:00

I got into graduate school yesterday so now I will be moving back to the big city I left when I was 12. I'm excited as I have a few friends still down there and family in the area. I'm ready to be out of the country and around people who don't have a bunch of kids and wonder why I don't. Not that I don't love kids and I do want some it just has not happend yet as I would like to be married

Do some Belly Dancing

2011-06-09T08:33:00.003-04:00

I decided the other day to get out my old Bellydance Fitness for Beginners dvd's so that I could get moving and hopefully lose some more weight. Oh my! Did I make a good choice not only is it fun but I get a great workout in a very short amount of time and I found that I really am still not in very good shape. A good thing about it is it really boost your confidence you feel sexy when your

New blogging schedule

2011-06-02T17:33:00.000-04:00

I'm thinking I need a blogging schedule. I need to set aside time each day to write up a bunch of post and call it good. for about three years now I have worked every day either by writing post or by doing other behind the sceans stuff. I feel like I need to work all of the time and I think it's effecting my health. Today I took some "me" time and it was nice, but again I'm right back to work

Sunburns

2011-05-23T07:56:00.000-04:00

I have been outside all weekend playing in mud. Yes, I go mud bogging with a friend of mine every once in a while and this weekend we were out all day so now I have a nice sunburn. My friend uses lotion, while I prefer to use aloe on my sunburn. What I am wondering is what do you use? It seems in my area I'm in the minority, most people either use lotion or nothing at all. I don't think I could

Missing Motivation

2011-05-17T09:08:00.002-04:00

I have lost my motivation and I don't think I'll be able to find it ever again. Okay that's probably not true, but I was great about two hours ago, then everyone started bothering me with their problems and I thought I was going to scream and have a fit. I'm stressed out enough on my own and I was having a great day till everyone decided to bother me. The bad part is I can't just turn off my

A Lot Going On

2011-05-15T11:38:00.000-04:00

I have been so busy the last week or two that I haven't stopped by to post. I love being busy but then things like keeping this blog up to date seem to not work so well. So I'm here only to ask you one thing. I have been talking with a few people and I am wondering, what do you think about people who blog? Do you think it's an easy job, hobby or a way to make a good living?

The Pictures

2011-05-05T19:45:00.000-04:00

Yes, I am talking about the Bin Laden pictures and I feel that our president made the right choice in not releasing the pictures. I know many people have said it will just make others fear us, but the truth is that most people around the world would just think poorly of us and it would incite hate. Not only are many people in the world quick to act and then think about it later, but those

It's a good day

2011-05-02T09:34:00.000-04:00

I woke up this morning to the news that Osama Bin Laden is dead. It's great news for those of us against terrorist. It's a great day to live in the USA, but there are still many struggles to deal with and this does not mark the end of anything. As I sit here watching the news I find that I love seeing people so happy, but at the same time I hope they remember that we are still not safe, but

Shopping for Car Insurance

2011-04-28T09:06:00.000-04:00

I hate shopping for car insurance, it's annoying and expensive and makes me mad most of the time, but I do it to make sure I get a great deal. I think so many people lose a lot of money because they are always staying with the same company, though this time it does look like I will be staying with my current company I still like to shop around to make sure I get the best deal. I live in a state

Life Changes

2011-04-25T09:16:00.001-04:00

I have been helping a few friends though a lot of major life changes, one friend is not moving away from the area because of her problems, another is trying to figure out how her family is going to end up after a divorce. While another is getting married and stressed about everything that goes a long with it. Me? I'm working on attending collage again for my masters degree and that will

How amazing is Jake Gyllenhaal?

2011-04-24T09:10:00.000-04:00

Contribution by German Flowers My favorite actor of all time would have to be Jake Gyllenhaal. I started watching his movies on my satellite TV (Are you paying too much for TV) as a little girl. Fell in love with all of his work. My favorite movie of all time happens to be Donnie Darko which he was the star of. I fell in love with that movie for the fact that it was so creepy yet amazing at the

Changes are here!

2011-04-15T08:59:00.000-04:00

I have not posted much as I have been making some changes to the blog. I ended up having to republish almost everything to this blog as I messed some things up. So you may notice a huge change to the feed or other weird things going on. If you don't read my blog enough to notice, lucky you and I hope you stick around. I'm going to try posting more on this blog as I have been neglecting it. I

Changes are Coming

2011-04-06T22:56:00.000-04:00

I have decided to do some things to change my situation, you may see some post disappear from this blog or at least they may change some. I don't think there there is going to be a huge impact, but I think things will all work out. I'm wondering if it will even work out for me, but I think doing this is really worth it and I am ready to make these changes. Hopefully it will help me out in the

Student Loan debt is Too Much

2011-04-01T05:22:00.000-04:00

I probably do not have much room to talk as I am right now trying to go back to school and thinking I'm going to have to pull out student loans so that I can have a place close to campus to live. Even if I do that it's still going to be under $20,000 I pull out and with any luck I'll have grants to cover some of my graduate work. I'm also going to be working, blogging running another home based

Not sure what to do with this

2011-03-18T17:21:00.000-04:00

I have been very very busy on my other blogs the last few years, this blog was my friend and I have just left it here to die. Part of me wants to revive it, part of me says I have too much on my plate already. I think though, since I now see that blogger has made some changes to there system that I will attempt to bring back this blog of mine and see what I can make of it. I have decided that

What is the benefit of digg

2009-03-24T21:39:00.002-04:00

I have been using digg for a while now and I can not figure out how people get traffic from it. I guess I'm just not using it right or I don't know the right people. Of course it could be that there idea of newsworthy is crazy too! I hate there categories and think they need to add a few more. Just because I find so many people who put up things that have nothing to do with the area they are in.

Thinking positive stinks

2009-03-23T11:12:00.002-04:00

Not only have I not been thinking positive, everything around me has been going crazy. I can't afford anything at all right now, I'm going to make it though, but it will be a very long hard road. I'm doing okay at keeping some of my other goals for the year up. Like blogging more on blogs I really love and getting rid of ones that are just there to make money, but were not because I didn't do

The wonderful world of tea

2009-03-19T16:00:00.003-04:00

I have found that the only thing that is keeping me from coughing is drinking tea. I have tried water, but it has not worked. I've had a kind of cold thing for over a month now and I'm so tired of it. Lucky me, I have enough tea to last me a lifetime!I'm hoping it's just because of the season changing but I have a feeling it's more then that and I no longer have insurance so I have to figure out
