me talking
Happy Easter
HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!
happy birthday hubby
today is my hubbys 27th birthday.
i don’t know if you read my blog, but i love you happy birthday
i’ve reached 400 posts
this is actually 401. i never imagined, i’ve only been blogging for a year.
i’m glad that i have been able to be part of the blogosphere, even though i still don’t have a lot of page hits or visits. but i’ve learned that sometimes how many visitors you get are not everything. it mat bring more pr reps to you, and give you better product reviews. i think it’s just the fact that you are a good writer and trying to share your thoughts and opinions.
meeting grandma
this past weel my mom came for a visit. we live in nc. and she lives in az., so we haven’t seen each other in 3 years. well she’s never met two of my children. so you could imagine how excited the meeting was.
it was so hard to see her leave, my son became so attached to her
grandma and her three grandbabies.
i don’t get it
i keep seeing advice on other blogs about how to make yourself a bigger blogger. (i guess you could say that). it just seems like the blogosphere revolving around mothers, has become nothing but bitching.
i’m not a great blogger, i don’t get a lot of visitors and i don’t have companies overloading me with reviews. i have only been blogging a year and i started becuase i wanted to connect with other moms, and share my parenting. I started doing contest listings because i thought it would bring me traffic, and it seemed like a lot of people only cared about contests. i don’t know if thats true or not, and i’m not going to judge anyone.
i love contests and i do enter a lot, but it’s not because it’s something free, it’s usually something i need or my children can use. something i might otherwise not be ablt to afford.
anyways, i love to review products and give my 100% honest opinion. but if i never got another review to do again,it’s not the end of the world. i’m here to share my experiances with you, the reader. reviews and giveaways are just a way to give my readers more.
i don’t appreciate bloggers rejecting other bloggers when they ask for pr info. I understand a lot of people have been doing this forever andworked hard to get the reviews they do. If a blogger is contacting you to get some info on that. give them some, you don’t have to give them your pr contacts, just some friendly advice on how they can do better.
if your doing a great review, don’t rub it in. reviews of t.v’s and laptops are nice, exspensive toys etc. but don’t mention it everyday in posts.
there are a lot of great networking sites out there. i am part of a couple, but i feel like if there are companies contacting you on their own for reviews, then maybe you should let some new bloggers have a chance at the networking sites. some have stopped accepting people because they are to full.
domains? should you have to own your own domain to get companies to contact you? your more serious about it if you own your own domain. i don’t think so. i think it’s the person not the blog or domain. i will probably never own my own domain. not because i don’t want one. i can’t afford one. i’m sorry but i’m a mom with 3 kids me and hubby are both back in school. i can’t afford even a dollar for a domain.
i don’t get this, do people blog to become famous? bloggers interviewing stars, joining up with big companies, having your face plastered everywhere.
it makes you wonder if people are doing all these blogging events all the time. how much time do they actually spend with family their kids?
like i said i’m not judging anyuone and i’m not picking anyone out, these are just some of the things i see going on, and i don’t get it
embarassing mommy moments
as my kids get older they get into more trouble. today at the store i was just thinking about some of them and thought it would make a good post.
my three year old jetting through the store and me having to chase after her. other people look at me like i’m crazy and i want to scream, but thats a toddler for ya.
my two yr old sitting in the airport, blurts out the word F####. yes i know i blame myself and hubby for her knowing that word.
my 14 month old falling asleep in the shopping cart and having people comment that his head is laying on the bar of the shopping cart. hey my son is 30 pounds and i can barely carry him.
happy valentines day
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!!!!!!
HOPE YOU GET A LOT OF LOVE
can’t take the screaming
my 14 month old is driving me crazy. he screams all the time, and i mean worse than a little girl. i don’t understand it, why. my two oldest were never like this.
he sees me making food, he screams until he gets some. his sisters are doing something without him, he screams. I thought it was just an attention thing, but i will hold him and he’ll scream in my ear in my arms.
it started out as ear infections. now the ear infections are gone,and he’s still screaming all the time.
i don’t know what to do and the doctor doesn’t either.it’s taken a big toll on my life. i have constant headaches. it’s taken a toll on my marriage as well as my daily activities.
right now i’m typing with him in my arms screaming.
has anyone had this same problem? any suggestions
the wierdest thing just happened
dr. phil just called me. the show just called me. i was not expecting that.
i wrote in to gt some advice back in october, when my dh wanted a seperation. they called to find out how everything was going.
i was in total disbelief i didn’t know what to say.
i just told them that things are better not where i’d like them but he is here.
has anything like taht ever happened to you?
