Review-Learn to Use Facebook Ads and Newsletters to Increase Revenue

20 Nov
Written By


I recently signed up for Tomoson and I received ad e-book to review it is called Learn to Use Facebook Ads & Newsletters to Increase Revenue. I didn’t not find this book useful as well but it would have been a great book if I hadn’t been blogging for ever. The major thing I don’t like about it is that it is written like it is a conversation going on. I am they type of person you would have liked to have the book be written like a regular book. I do think that this book would be great for new bloggers or who aren’t into Facebook. I started using Facebook to post my post automatically on my walls. This book has really good ideas!

This book is worth checking out for all the new bloggers are just starting or even people who are starting up their ow business.

Go and check out this book and let me know what you think of it!

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Book Review-The Queensford Family

17 Nov
Written By
~The cover and the info from the back of the book came from the website that provided me with the book to review~

by Shelley Hollenbeck

Seven invited tourists and their tour-guide driver are storm-isolated at Queensford Castle, Cock Robin Island, California. In the grand tradition of Agatha Christie’s “And Then There Were None,” all seven die, one by one. Who killed them – their Native American driver? Their host? The butler? The answer is much more complicated than Christie’s, involving the characters’ past lives and a centuries-old prophecy heralding divine retribution.

My Review

Let me first start by saying that I love everything about this book until the ending. I was less than impressed with how the author chose to end the book but I have read books that have ended worse. Right from the start of the book it grabbed my attention and it turned out to be a book that I couldn’t put down. Most of the book reminded me of the game of clue. I spend the entire book trying to figure it out and I never would have guessed the ending. I wouldn’t mind reading more books by this author. I also think people who like thrillers or mysteries would love this book.

Once you have read it please come back and let me know what you think of it!

Disgusted

15 Nov
Written By

I usually don’t bring up current events on my blog but when I say this story I knew I had to say something. I am disgusted that teachers treat students like this. How in the hell can someone treat anyone like they treated this poor girl. What makes it even worse to me is the fact that the teacher is still teaching kids! Bullying is horrible and never should happen but what makes it worse is the fact that this poor beautiful girl was being bullied by the people that should keep her safe and make sure that no one hurts her. Everyday I see more and more children committing suicide because of bullying and something really needs to be done. How can anyone live with themselves knowing that they pushed someone to kill themselves and how can a teacher do this to a child. I was bullied and it make me so sad to see so many children get bullied and now to know that teachers maybe doing it as well as other students breaks me heart.

There isn’t much more to say other than the teacher needs to lose her license so that she is no longer around children!

Letter To Brita

14 Nov
Written By

This post was originally posted last year during National Adoption Month. I have updated it and I feel that this can still help other birth mom’s out there.

I had another post scheduled for today but after reading some blogs by couples are looking to adopt and watching a music video I knew in my heart that I needed to post this. As I am writing this I am crying but it is something that I hope will help heal me in time.

It is national adoption month and it has hit me hard. I have found blogs of great couples looking to adopted and I can’t help but get sad when I read them. I feel so bad for them and yet it brings my own pain of being a birth mom up again. It is something I haven’t totally dealt with because it hurts and no one likes to hurt. I can’t believe my daughter is 6. Right now it seems like just yesterday and I placed her for adoption.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Brita,

I can’t believe you are already 6 years old. I remember like it were yesterday being pregnant with you and you pushing your feet so hard in my side that I would push it back and you would push even harder. I remember the months of being sick while I was pregnant and finding out who where true friends and who weren’t. I can remember going into labor and not wanting to be because I wasn’t ready to say goodbye yet. I knew once you were born I was going to have to say goodbye and I didn’t know how I was going to make it through saying goodbye. I can remember watching you with your parents and know I was making the right choice but that didn’t make it hurt any less. I can remember handing you to your dad and them walking out with you in their arms. I remember the pain but I also know that it was the right option for you. If I could go through it all again I would because I know without a doubt that You are where you are supposed to be. I hope you grow up happy. I would say and loved but I know they love you with all their hearts. I hope you never doubt the love I have for you. I will always love you no matter what you do. I placed you because I knew I couldn’t give you what you deserved in life. You deserve so much more than I could ever give you! I know you will do great things in life and that is why I placed you. In closing know that I love you and miss you everyday!!!!

Love,
Margaret

Tips on Placing Your Child in Adoption

Adoption is never an easy decision – whether you’re the one placing a child in adoption or the one adopting. It’s a very emotional and personal experience, and one that requires intense thought and consideration. If you are ever in the position where you want or need to place your childin adoption, it’s safe to say you’re probably dealing with some very heavy emotions and in need of support, even if you know you’re doing the right thing and are happy to be doing so.

1. Find Support

This can be done in the form of a support group, connecting with others who have been through the adoption process themselves, joining online forums, talking with a close friend or family member – anything that allows you to lean on someone during the highs and lows of the process. This is a life-changing experience and you need to make sure that you have all of your feelings sorted out as you navigate your way through the process.

2. Do Your Homework

Spend time researching the different adoption agencies and make sure to find one that you feel fits you the best. This is a very personal decision and experience and you want to be sure that everyone is on the same page and that you feel that the people helping you find a new home for your child are doing their best to find a loving home for him/her.

3. Decide What Type of Relationship You Want to Have

Spend some time figuring out if you want to have an open, semi-open, or closed adoption. You will need to spend some time asking yourself some very serious questions: when you place the child in adoption, do you want that to be it or do you want to have some form of contact with them throughout the years?

4. Figure Out What You Want for Your Child

Some agencies will let you pick the adopting parents while others will only let you give you opinion on what kind of family your child is adopted into. Figure out what kind of family you want your child raised in – is there a specific religion, do you want your child to be raised in a two-parent home, etc. Even if you aren’t able to pick the specific family that adopts your child, it’s still important to voice your opinion (if you have one) so that the agency can take that into consideration.

5. Realize What You’re Doing

You are giving your child the opportunity to have a life that you are unable to provide – as hard as placing your child in adoption may be, realize that you’re not giving them up, but giving them life.

The process of placing a child in adoption can be a long and painful one, but in the end also a rewarding one. You are providing for your child in a way that allows them to have a life they wouldn’t otherwise have, and that is something to be celebrated.
