Haha, yeah right! I’ve been wanting to change it for a while but it had to be the way I wanted. None of the themes I was finding were exactly me so I spent all night working on this baby! Hopefully it’ll be easier on the eyes for people. Let me know what you think!

If you ever wondered about the ins and outs of blogging this is the class for you. It really opened my eyes to a whole other world, namely all those social networking sites.

Bean is a great instructor and let me tell you that woman has some serious knowledge in that head of hers You will learn how to set up a blog, write effectively, network to get your blog noticed and have a lot of fun doing it!

Registration is open right now at LVS Online for this and many other excellent classes. I know because I’ve taken lots of them! To register for the blogging class click here. Or just go check out the others they have available. Classes start on August 30th. I’m the new assistant and I hope to see you there.

Caveat: You have my word that this is not a picture of either Bean or I. Nor will blogging transform you into anyone that looks like that (unless of course, you already do) 

I’m not so good at begging for money but I thought oh, what the hell Wanted to see how it works and since I really do need a furnace by winter and have no clue how I’m going to afford one…I’m aiming for 5000 generous souls to contribute $1 each. I have a long way to go getting 5000 people to read these crazy rambles I write but I think that just hooking people up with the hookworm story is worth a buck! Living on disability I’m having a fun enough time not affording my meds and car repairs. But you gotta have a furnace!

This seems like a great place to mention that I have the Amazon ad on here and they emailed me to mention that I hadn’t had any sales. Like I needed them to point that out! I have my Zazzle store on here and have not made one sale but apparently I am going to get $.91 because someone clicked on my store link and then went and bought something from someone else’s store! I think I feel offended. I have a Cafepress store that I’m probably going to close because unlike Zazzle that’s free, to make a decent store there it costs you money.

On my other blog I have Google adsense ads that haven’t sold a thing, my Zazzle and Cafepress stores, I have ads I made for affiliate sales from companies listed on Paydotcom. I have had one sale. Police Exam 911, a study guide for passing your police test. I got $28 for that sale. Pretty good percentage. I only picked companies that looked like they were selling cool stuff. In fact if you are looking for some great Chinese tattoos I suggest you rush over to my other blog and click on that ad!! Not to mention I’ve had Daz affiliate ads plastered all over my website and never got a thing there either. The best way to approach it is to clearly expect nothing. Then you might get a pleasant surprise once in a while.
