I have been using Swagbucks for a while. I could not be happier with it. If you are not a member, go right now and join. It is one of the easiest things you will ever do. The idea is simple, use Swagbucks when you search online and earn Swagbucks. Trade those Swagbucks in for prizes like: movies, video games, gift cards, etc. My all time favorite is the Amazon gift card. 45 swagbucks get you a $5 amazon gift card. And we all know Amazon sells everything under the sun. Why not start preparing for the holiday season now? I have already received gift cards for Amazon, Subway and Starbucks. I have used them for myself and as gifts.

You Data is my new favorite site for earning a little money. You sign up, visit sites and get paid every Friday through Paypal. I love it. I have been getting paid each and every Friday. You won’t become a millionaire, but you make some money. You don’t have to give them all your personal information and hopefully reach their minimum payout sometime this year. You get paid every week.

Well, it 11:46 p.m. and I should be sleeping but I am very anxious. But in a good way. Friday I am going out of town to a Disney Mom Mixer (more details later). This is going to be a big weekend of firsts for me. My first trip ever without my husband, my first going away with no kids (and I have four!) in about 14 years, my very first plane ride and my first time ever going to Disney! I should be way more nervous then I am. Of course I would not be me if I did not worry about um, everything. Should I take my laptop?I’m thinking no. I need to make sure I clear my memory card so I can take pictures. Hopefully my camera will behave and not embarass me horribly by not snapping pictures when I push the button. I can’t take video because my flip broke So should I take my regular video camera? I don’t really want to lug it around. Will I be able to find where to board the plane? I have never even stepped foot inside an airport. I did print up a map. I need to remember to wear my glasses. What should I put in my carry on? I want to carry my purse so I can bring my PSP and Ipod. (It’s not the Ipod Touch, it is the nano but I love it anyways). Will everyone be okay without me at home? The kids don’t have school but my husband still has to work. I set it up so my aunt and dad can pop in and check on them. I still have 3 science projects to help with. They are due Friday. Nannah has a track meet tomorrow. TJ has a cold. I want to clear my desk off before I leave. Whew, it feels good to get that off my chest I am so excited that I will get an opportunity to finally meet some of my favorite mommy bloggers, for example Sheena of Mommy Daddy Blog. I bet she is just as sweet in person as she is online. Plus I get to meet Mickey Mouse!! I truly feel so blessed. I will miss everyone so much, but I plan on enjoying myself

It was very sad to find out the earlier today the four year old daughter of Mike Tyson was admitted into the hospital. She is on life support and in very critical condition. She was playing on a treadmill and somehow got a cord that was attached wrapped around her neck. Her older brother, who is only seven found her. It is so very sad to hear about any type of accidents but even more so when it involves children. I pray that she is able to recover and my heart goes out to the family.

I absolutely love it when I win giveaways. Most of the times I win something that I might not have had the opportunity to try any other way. My most recent win was through VPG Printing. Through Twitter I won my choice of 100 color flyers or 500 business cards. I chose the business cards because I really needed some. I had some cards that I got some for free. They are ok but not super great. So, I needed to send a logo that I wanted on my card. So I found one and honestly I was not totally happy with it but I figured it would do. VPG got back to me really quick with a proof and I fell in love with it. She could not use my logo because it was low resolution. I thought it was amazing that she was able to put together something that was exactly what I was looking for. And I mean EXACTLY! It even has the perfect shade of purple. But the real suprise is when the cards came in the mail. They look amazing!!! They are high quality and glossy. The images and print are clear and crisp. I could not be happier. So I just want to say thank you VPG for having such a great giveaway. When these cards are gone I will be back to order my next batch
