This week went by like a whirl wind.
Spent last Saturday and Sunday preparing for the blog trip that was hosted by Mommy Community. Did some blog hopping during the trip and made some new friends, hopefully. I hosted a contest for this blog trip.

Worked on my 2 squeeze pages ourasthma.info and secret recipes. I have been selling some secret recipes, it seems to be a popular item. I really want to get the word out about drug free asthma relief more.

My son starts preschool this week, so last week we had supply drop off and meet the teacher day.

I still spend alot of time learning and trying to figure out the best way down the internet path for me, which includes many prayers and bouts of low self confidence, I have struggled with this for many years now, but working on the net can be very hard on self confidence. I am working hard on this, any suggestions?

I guess thats it for this week. Sorry this is late.

This being a holiday weekend, hopefully everyone worked hard and is able to take a little fun time.

Me on the other hand, I'm spending the weekend trying to catch up with my blog. I am participating in the a blog trip and don't want to be lacking in the content category.

I have been very busy this week learning and working. I updated my Secret Restaurant Recipes and OurAsthma.info if anyone has an opinion, please share your thoughts.

I have started trying to design my own websites with Kompozer. I used to think I knew what I was doing.

This was my week of dealing with problems
1. Problems with my mentor program not answering questions.
2. Problems with an upgrade not fulfilling it's promise (shouldn't I get my money back?)
3. Problems not getting some ebooks I ordered - actually got this one resolved. Thanks bestchoiceforebooks.com

Maybe next week I can get the other two resolved.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend? Maybe.

I have not been keeping my goal of 2000 words for my blog this week. As a matter of fact I believe for the last two week, I have not been a good blogger.

I have been working hard to get a new program up and running. Those who have read the blogs I have posted know that my son has been diagnosed with Asthma, which I also have myself. The doctor has put him on Singulair, again is what I have been taking for sometime now. It was pointed out to me that this drug can cause mental issues, so I will be looking into this because we do have some mental health related problems in the family. I have also been looking into more natural - drug free solutions for asthma.
So along with this, I am working on a site to help others who have small children or they themselves have asthma. This should be a venture that I can truly get into. My parents were very good about teaching me about and getting me into classes that taught me how to live with my Asthma. I hope to do the same for my child and others out there. For now you can go here to check out the book about drug free asthma treatments.

I have been revamping my first website - trying to find its focus. I like the site, but some experts say "needs focus" and "not ready".

I did spend some of my "free" time this weekend doing surveys and little junk like that. At the end of the day I enjoy it and although it's not going to pay my bill - I do make a little money and I just enjoy it.

Next week I will hopefully get back on track. The boys have a week off from gymnastics and music class is over, so I will have more time to work.

Another busy week here at working mother. Not all good, but not all bad either.
Let's Monday night was the first night of podcast bootcamp and it was great. I need to fully define my website's mission statement, platform and target market - by tomorrow night.

Tuesday night's - I have been attending a webinar by Business Shrink on Developing and Building a successful affiliate website. We have been working on research and stuff so far.

All week long I have been updating my website with my autoresponder. I finally finished updating this and a few other things on Saturday.

I worked on an invite for my accountant for a summer bbq she is having. That was a nice break from my normal "work". I'm even invited to it. It also forced me to load a new program that I have been wanting to check out. I ended up not using it, but atleast it's loaded now.

Thursday was a bad day, you can read my blog from that day to find out all about it.

Saturday always seems to be my most productive day of the week. I made a logo for my blog and finished my email copy, which is now sent of for review. I'm sure there will be some changes.

Check back often, there is always something to share.

This week was kinda busy with the boys, we had more playdates than usual (3 this week), I got to see an old playgroup friend who had moved out of state and become better friends with a mom and her 4 kids that live close by.

I learned something very profound on a personal level, even though you try to make it look like you have it all together - people can see through that and sometimes if you reach out you just might find some friends.

Today was my best work day of the week. I mailed my first newsletter for my website, it was very long, but I did it.
I also won a ticket to Kelly McCausey's Podcasting Bootcamp with SparkplugU that starts Monday, I am so excited.

I am still hesitate to write my own promotional copy for my website email campaign, that just isn't my stong suit and I don't want to mess it up. Maybe next week it will be completed in my recap.

I did do an email campaign promoting the giveaway I am participating in and got some sign ups for my website (whatever works, right?). Hence the first newsletter...

Oh and our air has been out for 2 days - longing for a laptop so I can work in nice cool basement. dream a little dream with me.
