Sorry guys, I've been slacking! I went on vacation for a few days to upstate NY, no cell service, no internet, no tv..... it was absolutely wonderful. I love being up there, and usually go once every August with my kids, other half, little sister, step mom and of course my dad since he's the reason I get to go =] Thanks Daddy. Even at 27 he still takes me on vacation =] It's nice to know I can survive quite happily without technology =] In my opinion everyone should give it a shot. It gives you a chance to really relax and focus on the little things in life.
So back to this blog. My ideas for it have changed quite a bit since I first started. I think that I am going to focus more on views, like I said a post or two ago instead of the dollar donations aspect of it. Though the total is $96, I really don't know how I can expect people to keep giving dollars. For every person who has donated $1 there are 2 people who send hate mail asking why they should give me $1 for my debt when I should be making my own money. (I guess they missed they first post where I shared that I do work.... TWO jobs). I am going to take the $96 and donate it to a local rescue organization that provided me with 3 months worth of dog food a few weeks ago. I called looking for one bag to get be through the next month or so hoping to get ahead a little bit and they ended up giving much more. They shared their cause with me and what they do is amazing so I think they are a good candidate. If anymore money comes in I plan to donate it in $50 increments to different charity organizations. I figure if I can get some decent traffic to this blog maybe I can get a little money from adsense for myself and just donate any other $ that comes in. Like the idea?
Now I just need to figure out what kind of content will bring people in, keep them coming and get them sharing....... ideas, thoughts, suggestions??
Thanks =]
