Like many people online, I joined Squidoo to promote some of my sites, share topics that I was interested in, and make some money (of course, right   )

Well, it has been over a year now, and finally, I have a lens that has made it into the top 100.  It has taken  a lot of marketing, but it is nice to finally see that it has made some ground.

But, I am concerned that it isn’t going to stay there for long – though it gets some good traffic, it needs more people to comment on it.

So, if you have a chance, could you visit my lens on proxy websites and comment and rate it – I would appreciate it very much

Many things have changed in the month and a half since I last blogged here.  I don’t want to bore you with all of the details, but here are some things that are different:

• Well, the babysitting job that I started I managed to only last a month.  The kids I was babysitting were brats and were ganging up on my daughter, so that was the end of that.  You should always remember to put your family first before work – and it was a great example to learn from.
• Had a scare this past week with my wife.  She had chest pains and had to be rushed to the hospital.  Thankfully, it was only Costochondritis, and nothing serious, but scares like this are never fun.
• We have been fighting with our new bank and losing money in NSF charges at our old one due to a huge mess caused by transferring banks out to the town that is closer to where we live.  Didn’t help that the person that setup the transfer of our funds messed up and it has been nothing but a headache.
• Another new look for the site was added today as I decided that the old one kind of sucked.  Okay, it really sucked, and I hope that you all like this one better – tell me what you think in the comment section.

Otherwise, that is about it.  Have plenty of work that needs to be done, and I get to spend the weekend with just me and the kids as the wife has gone to the city to take a break – can’t wait until it is my turn
