Had to take a small break from everything so that I can take a breath. Needed to decide what i'm going to do. Adding more things later tonight. Also revamping my blog at my other blog. Thinking of making it a vampire fiction blog since my favorite store is all about that!
Hoping to get more involved in the store making. Just gotta spend more time towards it. I do like the thought of making Niche stores, but feeling like i'm missing out on alot of other items that can be purchased. So gotta work on that one.
Also joined Twitter today. No followers yet. Gonna add that to the site so you can add me!
Well that's all for now, gotta get back to real life now!

Apr 11: Stores Added Just Need Inventory
Ok been a while since I posted, but i've been so busy behind the scenes. The blog sidebar has changed a little. Cleaning it out so it isn't so "busy", which was really bothering me. Alot of things just didn't look right.
I have a couple of links for the stores. Not anywhere finished with putting up inventory for each. It's a day by day process that just takes alot of time. I've been trying out so many different ways to do it.
Currently my favorite one is at My other domain it's a small start using Amazon and Eiggy. It's not perfect, but it's alot better than it was. The other store is Here . It's part of Oblinq, but using frames to put it on my site. Needs more added to it. Mostly starting out with books right now and working my way up. Alot are series that i've read. Feel free to check it out. Remember that your information is secure and I in no way gain access to it.
Also have the form ready for a newsletter, just haven't got it on the site yet, need to tweak it a little. Just don't give up on me yet, i'm working hard and learning something new everyday.

Apr 02: Adding Stores To The Site
Wanted to post some info again. I've decided to put stores on the site. Mostly starting out with two. May do more as time goes by. And I wanted to post here to reassure you that your info will not be gained by me. You'll essentially be buying from the retailer i'm just a person to help give gift ideas and such. The reason I want to do this is that I can showcase things i've bought and liked and recommend great items.
I want to do so much, and learning how to do it everyday. I hope to make this into something big and wonderful, but I need your help. Let others know about my site. Hint Hint say good things. Without my readers and visitors this will be nothing. So I hope that I don't bore you and can give you content to keep you coming back for more.
A few months before Christmas I will be posting items that are on sale and will most likely be gone soon. So i'm counting on the readers to leave comments to let me know when it's gone so I can make sure to keep on my toes and post more items!
So in closing I hope that things get busier around here to jump start me to keep giving you bigger and better things.

Apr 01: A Little Information
I wanted to let you guys know i'm still around. I had wanted to post yesterday, but I had to go shopping! I also wanted to give an update on things I want to bring to this blog.
First is book reviews. The Why? Because I have found many different books and series through reviews. I don't base it only on others thoughts, but it's definately helpful to see how others see the book. I'd rather not be negative, but I will be honest. If I really don't like a book I won't post about it, and there aren't many books that i've read and not liked. Ahem book reviews helped me on that!
Second is my thoughts on writing a script. I'm not giving up on my script writing, just taking a break to get through my barriers. I have a wonderful idea that i've put to paper, but i'm trying to work through the little details. It's not an easy job for the first timer and i'm a little slow.
Third is the newsletter. I think I have the form ready to put on the site and blog for you all to sign up for my newsletter.
Fourth is writing the newsletter! I need to post more here so I have something interesting to write in the newsletter. Easier said than done.
Ok that's all I can think of for now. I've had tons of ideas, just not enough time to sit down and pour them out. I hope to get through that soon!
Have a wonderful April!

Ok i'm back after some time off. I didn't want to be away from writing this long, but it had to be done. Some updates yippie! I got my stuff from Vista Print today. Well the last of it for now. My magnets with calendars on it. Will try to get a picture of them up soon. Will be posting a picture of my business cards and my postcards! I'm so happy! I urge you to please check out Vista Print if you have any printing needs. The basics are affordable. Their items are sometimes free and you only pay shipping.
Also if you want you can sign up for Big Crumbs and receive cash back for your purchases with Vista Print.
I am toying with the idea of a newsletter. Right now my traffic is low, but I want to reach out to my readers and let them know of updates to the site. There are so many things out there on the internet and sometimes I just don't have the time to update it all on the site so I may just put into a newsletter so I can let you all know. I will probably be putting up a form on the main site so that I can get your names and e mail addresses for sign up. Just a note I will never sell, pass around or otherwise use your e mail address. It will be for newsletter only. And I want the form to keep it more confidential. I will be testing the newsletter with friends first before anything goes live. Your privacy means alot to me.
And just a reminder please check out the links posted. Most are free to join, if things cost money it should be in the post!

Mar 19: Lost A Day In Blog World
Well I wanted to post daily, but I missed it last night due to an error I was trying to fix. Needless to say it could of been fixed in 5 minutes if I had read a FAQ. Learned that lesson at 8 am today and will remember to always read first!
Ok what I wanted to write about last night is a place called Vista Print . I just loveee this place. I've ordered business cards for myself and my father. He sells honey locally so I suprised him with his own business cards! They only cost me $4 and change. Mine were a little more since they were premium. In each order of business cards I got 250. That's plenty for me!
They usually give out free items you only pay from $4-$5 to ship them out. Their offers change all the time. I ordered magnetic calendars, business cards and post cards a few days ago. Will link a picture in an update post after I receive them!
This is great for small business owners or just promoting your website. We have bulletin boards around town in grocery stores and such to post your cards!! Can we say cheap advertising??? And also some places offer prizes for leaving your business cards in a bowl for drawings. There's so many ideas for you to choose from! I am gonna put mine in trades I have with others online so that i can promote myself.
Give it a try, just look around and see if they have what's right for you. What i've listed is only a small portion of what they offer.

Mar 17: Online Cash Back Rebates.
Ok i've been shopping online for a while now and i've found many different sites that offer a cash back on your purchase. You have to shop through their links. It's not a bad idea. The prices are the same and you earn a little of your purchase back. When someone in my family needs to order online I ask them what site and search my cash back sites to find the best cash back offering. Some sites offer more and less. It usually only takes a couple of minutes. Like most rebates it can take a while to get your cash sent to you. Though that depends on the minimum amount before you get a check.
My best site is Ebates . Right now they have a promotion going on that offers you a $10 gift card bonus when you're referred and make a purchase through their links before March 31st. I've been paid through them before so I know it's legit. It's a great program and they have tons of retailers willing to give back a little. Also a note they pay you after you earn $5.00 or more. And the gift card is sent automatically.
My second favorite site is BigCrumbs. It's my favorite because I earn 20% on ebay's final value fee when I shop through them. And since Ebay has raised their final value fee structure that means more for us!
I hope that I could of been of help to you. Just remember don't shop just to earn cash back. You won't make a ton back, but you'll be suprised at your first gift card and check!

Mar 16: Aerogarden Update.
I was searching Amazon to see if they had anymore seed kits on sale for Aerogarden and found out they had seed kits mixed in with their 4 for 3 promotion. It comes down to this. You place 4 items that are a part of the promotion and at check out it takes off the lowest priced item. So essentially you pay for only 3 items and get 4.
I've done these promotions a few times and love it. Usually I use it on books or sometimes Cookware for Christmas Presents. More on that later. Here is the text that tells you if an item is part of the promotion "This item is eligible for our 4-for-3 promotion. Eligible products include select Books, DVDs, Single Copy Magazines, and Home & Garden items. Buy any 4 eligible items and get the lowest-priced item free. Here's how (restrictions apply) " Usually you can find it about mid page. You can also click the view specials offers link.
Here's what I ordered AeroGarden Chili Peppers Seed Kit
AeroGarden Cherry Tomato Seed Kit
AeroGrow AeroGarden Salad Bar Romaine Seed Kit
and AeroGarden Replacement Grow Bulbs, Package of 2
My total before Promotion Item(s) Subtotal: $79.80
Shipping & Handling: $7.35
After choosing free super saver shipping and promotion my total is Grand Total: $59.85
which isn't low, but getting 80$ worth of stuff shipped free and for less than $60 is still pretty good.
There are other items you can get with this 4 for 3 promotion, and i'll post more as I find better deals.

Mar 15: Rough Night
Suprised i'm still awake. It's been a very long day and night. Storms kept me from the computer for a while. And it's saturday so I hate staying home. Not much to update. I plan on getting some rest and picking things back up tomorrow. I had tons of ideas for tonight, but i'm so exhausted.
I hope to have more things to talk about tomorrow!!!
