An Extra Buck or Two

I have been hearing so much about this very interesting concept of online advertising that a few of my friends are getting into on the Internet. I’ve been told that you can sign up and register your personal blog and advertisers will pay you to write about their products and services for the ever growing world of Internet shopping.I have been told that a good informational website about this blogging concept is run by socialspark.com and today I have been taking a look see in an effort to understand and possibly get intothis new buzz. I seem to be always looking for new and creative ways to make an extra buck in order to save the farm, the house and all that goes along with it

This website is social media where bloggers can connect with advertisers in order to help these business attract more visitors to their site and hopes of making a sale with today’s online shoppers. .

Yesterday was Mother’s Day

Yesterday was a rough day for me.  I took flowers to the cemetery – a bouquet of white daisies and red roses, my mother’s favorites.  I stayed, sitting on a bench near her grave for about an hour, thinking about her life, and how different my life is now that she is gone.  I watched other people come and go to their own family grave sites and leave flowers and said hello to a few of them as they walked by.

I tried to get my sister to go with me, but she wouldn’t go.  She said she gets too emotional at the cemetery.  I really would have appreciated the company, but I told her I understood.  I’m glad the weather was nice, and the cemetery was pretty, so at least it wasn’t all wet and gloom, but still it was a rough day.
