I cannot rave about this company enough! Remember a while back when I was telling you to back up your computer? Well, luckly I followed my own advice and signed up, the other day I was in the process of downloading something and ended up getting a bad virus! Somehow it ate some documents I have been working on, and I am sure I could have figured out how to repair them if I had to, but I was able to just delete it all, anything that could possibly have an infection, and then grab it from the idrive online backupplace I set up. I didn’t loose anything, and instead of freaking out and calling my hubby in a panic (like I usually do when the computer messes up!) I was able to just take a breath- I had everything I needed, program backups, …

Flea Markets and ebay

May 30, 2007 | Author: Eve Lester | Filed under: SEO and Marketing

A few weeks ago my husband and I took a truck load of furniture and misc things up to the flea market, needing to get rid of some things. We didn’t do so great, mainly because I was hot and frustrated with the turnout so we left early, marking everything way down and even giving some things away. LOL But, being there I saw some great ideas, those sellers that specialized in one area, such as home furniture, and had alot of that areas products, were doing very well, constant sales. One of them even bought our tables for 20.00, and was going to resell them for more from his booth. We didn’t do well because we were like the worlds tiniest garage sale LOL, no theme, just a bunch of random things. All of my scrapbook magazines were what made the most money.

But, I saw …

My Plan to get back on track

May 29, 2007 | Author: Eve Lester | Filed under: What I am Doing, Blogging

In case you all haven’t noticed, I have not been blogging alot lately. I am not really sure what is going on with me, I just have not had the motivation to get up and work, then when I feel like I do, well, I have been sick. But I think the main problem is simply that I got off track, I fell off the life wagon so to speak, you know?

Sooo, I am deciding today to work, regardless of how I feel, or what I feel like doing, for at least 3 hours, I am going to set a timer and just do it, I also joined the YMCA guy this weekend, I think some activity outside of the house and off my rear may help me have more energy. So, thats my plan; make myself work, and go to the gym… I think it …

You can Hire Me!

May 25, 2007 | Author: Eve Lester | Filed under: Working at Home, Money Matters, Blogging

Have you tried the new Pay Per Post Direct yet? It is similar to the company Review Me, but instead of getting 50% of the payment, you get the entire payment. And you get it immediately. It is really easy to use for both bloggers and advertisers. You just click the button (the one to the left of this paragraph! :-)) and then you fill out the form to make a bid to buy a posting. Then I will review it and either accept it, negotiate it, or deny it, and depending on that choice I write up a post (like this one) about your product, website, business, etc. I have my rates set at 30 dollars right now, but in time I will be raising it to the 40 I usually charge for a individual post. …
