There are a billion thoughts going around in my head. Lots of mish-mash, not a lot of coherent writable thoughts. I see that my blog stats are at about 1-2 hits per day, so I figure it’s time I better put something out there again.
I find it really creepy how Facebook KNOWS me. Today, I posted my status saying that I’m a babysitter for hire, looking to make some extra income. Guess what appeared in the ads on my sidebar after that? A link to someone’s “blog” about how they make an obscene amount of money for doing nothing but sitting around at their computer posting links to Google. All you have to do is pay the shipping to receive your “kit” about how to do it. Why do so many people fall for these such obvious scams? I could go to some other people’s website and find the SAME pictures of people holding up their alleged Google checks and the same pictures of the new car they bought with their earnings etc etc. Nothing in life is that good, otherwise everyone would be doing it!! Then, the other day I updated my status about wanting to exercise (I finally learned how to spell that!) and suddenly the ad on the sidebar was for some Acai berry weight loss thing (also a scam). I couldn’t believe it! They’re IN MY BRAIN. (or, you know, my keywords in my status). It’s a little bit creepy. Actually, it’s a lot creepy.
I have been babysitting lately. It’s been great. I get paid to play with kids, put them to bed (which I always do anyways!!) and then sit and watch T.V. for a few hours. I love it!!! I have used the money for summer clothes for the kids. The other week I went out to Value Village and a garage sale and spent all of 10$, and got the following items for the kids: 2 prs shorts, 2 t-shirts, 1 pr sandals, 1 pr jeans, 1 dance bodysuit. All for 10$!! It felt sooooo good to get so much for so little! I’ve been selling some of the kids old clothes as well, I’m taking a whole bunch to a consignment shop next week. It feels a little sad to be getting rid of baby clothes… I didn’t expect to feel sad about it. Maybe it’s just because I’m a little hormonal this week I’m not sure. I SO don’t want any more babies, but there’s a weird attachment to letting baby clothes go!
I’m hoping to start blogging more again. I know I say that every post, but at least know that my intentions are there. I’d like to start adding more photos to my posts too, I know I really enjoy photos on the blogs that I read.
That’s all. I guess. For now. I’ll leave you with a video I made a month or so ago.
