A work in progress

Welcome to my blog.

Two days ago I didn't know what a blog is! (And today I'm still wondering if I do.) A friend of mine (Melodieann) said it was time for me to join the 21st century, so she came over and set it up for me, with my input. She showed me so many things online that it made my head spin. The internet is such a MARVELOUS resource! Those of you who grew up on computers don't know how lucky you are! For those of us who can remember life before personal computers, it's almost like learning a foreign language! (I hope my kids never read this -- they already think I'm ancient as it is!) lol See there, I already know a LITTLE bit of "computer speak" . . . lol for "laughing out loud." (My first encounter with that abbreviation, I kept wondering why my brother was sending me "lots of love" so often in his emails to me, since it seemed SO out of character, and often didn't fit in with the gist of the conversation!)

I have been studying and teaching personal growth topics for over twenty years, and feel that this blog will be a great way to share some of the information that has enriched my life.

Remember, "If you work hard on your job, you'll make a living. Work hard on YOU and you'll make a fortune!"



I would like to call your attention to one of the links on the right. The one that says "Shop online here" will take you straight into my online shopping mall, where you can shop and get paid commission on your own purchases! It's a GREAT deal!

When you click on the link, it will take you into the mall, where you simply create your own FREE shopping account, so that you can begin immediately to be paid commissions on your own purchases!

Simply click where it says "join now" (in red letters on the right, up toward the top)

I assure you, you will be glad you did! There are over 700 stores, restaurants, and even gas stations! I hardly ever spend a penny without getting paid commission on my purchase!

The commission does NOT have to be spent at the online mall, either! You can spend it anywhere Mastercard is accepted! They actually mail you a real Mastercard that you can use anywhere you want, as long as you don't try to spend more than the credit balance that they have loaded onto your card (the commissions you have been paid.)

I have already been paid hundreds of dollars in commissions on my own purchases, and all I have bought on there were things I would have to buy anyway (such as ink for my printer and Frontline flea stuff for our dog Bailey.) Not only do I get paid commissions on my own purchases, but I get those items way cheaper on there to begin with! (And I LOVE that I save myself a trip to Wal Mart or the Veterinary Clinic!)

One of the REALLY amazing things is that when you print out a gift certificate from Restaurants.com (part of the Rewards Mall) and go out to eat with it, it costs you way less than the face value of the gift certificate! And you get paid 10% commission on what you did pay for it! For example, next time we go out for Italian, I am definitely going to go online and print out a $25 gift certificate for this bistro in Fayetteville that I noticed on there, because it will only cost me $10, and then I get paid 10% on THAT, so it will really only cost $9 in the long run, for a $25 gift certificate! Way cool!

Next time you shop online, please go to my site and set yourself up with your own online shopping account, and YOU'LL start getting paid commission on your own purchases, too!

Remember, it's totally free! All you do is type in your email address and make up a password. Then you can go to your own account and shop from now on and get paid commission on your own purchases!

(Of course, if you would rather receive commission on not only your own purchases, but also on all YOUR friends' purchases, I'd be happy to share the information with you as to how that could be arranged as well. :)

Happy shopping!
