Smorty

I came across a very neat site the other day and decided to try it out. Its called Smorty. What makes this site so neat is that you can use it to get paid for blogging. Its interesting in the way that you are given opportunities from advertisers and then you have the right to say, yeah i like this idea, i can write about it, or no i don’t like that, i don’t have anything to say so i wont write about it. Its your blog, you can decide what goes in it, and if you can get paid to blog

What makes this site neat, is that you can be an advertiser as well. Say you have a small at home business, you want to promote it, help sales along. Well then you can use Smorty too. Join and then set up an advertisers account. Seeing i don’t have any kind of product to sell, i don’t have one. Its pretty easy to get approved for Smorty. Basically you have to have people coming to your blog, and you have to write at least semi often. Ill start doing better about that by the way.

You get paid about every week through paypal. Making it very friendly and easy. If you don’t have a pay pal account, just set one up at their site. Its fast, easy and free. So what you are doing is advertising on your blog. and you get paid for it. Not bad for writing a small article that can take just a few minutes of your time.

Anyway I’m liking this new site. Its great, and they pay me for blogging. For writing. Its easy, its fun, and its friendly. So if you have some spare time, or if you want to try and get paid for blogging, even if you all ready blog for money, you can sign up for Smorty too. Give them a shot, doesn’t everyone like a bit extra in their pockets?

Photo Scavenger Hunts

Ive been doing quite a few photo scavenger hunts on one of my other photography blogs. I figured i would post some of the pictures here for fun! Hope you enjoyed!

Bed Wetting

B has been wetting the bed of late. I am really notl iking it. I take him to the bathroom 3 hours after he goes to bed, and T takes him before he leaves for work. An HOUR later he wets the bed. Every day this week. I have no idea how to stop it, just that it is really frustrating me big time. Sigh. Anyone have any great ideas on how to get this bed wetting thing to slow down?

Renting movies

Well its friday again. Its kinda nice that its a weekend, if a weekend was any different then any other day for me lol. But i did manage to get to the stores and rent a few movies to the eening. I rented I am Legend. Tony really wanted to see it. I also got Beowolf. It looks kinda cheesy, but it should still be fun. I also got atonement. Im kinda in the mood to watch it lol. My mom however got No reservations. Im hoping to snag it and watch it this weekend too. I enjoy renting movies so much. It really gives me time to kick back and relax even with the kids around.

Oh Baby

Steph had her baby. 7 lbs 13 oz of baby Abagail. She had issues and was moved to a hospital where she had the traditional interventions. But it all ended with a happy baby girl. They are still at the hospital, She was born on the 16th, so i havent had a chance ot see her yet. Im excited to see her and take some baby pictures
Plus im sure when the pain wears off, Steph will be happy shes no longer pregnant

Bomerman

So tony downloaded this free trial game on his xbox 360 called Bomberman. I didnt think i would like it all that much. Im more into a single player game. My arcade games consist of bejeweled and luxor. Anyway i sat down and watched him play for a while, then i got out the second controller and joined in.
I never thought i would have so much fun. It was literally a blast hanging out with my husband and playing a game. The game itself is great. you go around laying bombs, trying to kjill off the other team members, or turn all the squares your color. And they can be recolored by other team members bombs. It was simple. but alot of fun.Apperently it used to run on the origional nintendo. Hey whatever it was fun!
Try it out!

Alaska Blues

Ive got the blues lol. There is just something about an amazing blue sky that really gets me going! Its like an amazing thing. But consider the image above. Even in black and white, those clouds make a striking image. Something that evokes feeling, emotion. Something that i enjoy sharing.

High in the mountains i got this shot yesterday. The blue skies are almost unreal, and yet there they are.

Looking out over the ice fields on the inlet i got this shot. You can see the two mountain ranges in teh background, and the clouds coming up over the mountain.

Hello from up in the mountains!

Another amazing Alaska blues mountain shot.

Frustrations

I went to the dentist today. Again. The same two teeth. But now they are done. They were the back 2 molars on my right side. At my next appointment they will be working on the two teeth after that. Once a month, ill be going in to get some more teeth done untill closer to july when my medical starts its new fiscal year, right before then ill be getting 2 partial root canals. Ill get both teeth drilled. Then at the second appointment (after july) ill have the crowns fitted and a third appointment to have them put in. Basicly a whole lot of dental work will be done on my teeth God, every time i get pregnant my teeth get worse. After B was born i saw the dentist several times to get fillings and corrections. I brush twice a day and wash my mouth out probably 3 times, sometimes more often. Its not fun…. but im trying. And nothing is helping. I need to go on a liquid diet and wash my mouth out after every meal lol. Maybe then it would help? Probably not, but its a fancy idea….

Oh Tony put his hand through our bedroom window last night. Some people were (AGAIN!) Smoking in the halls. And i was getting really pissed off, opening up windows and turning on my air purifier. But no matter what i can still smell it seeping in. Even my neighbor noticed that it seaps in here. Anyway. I yelled at tony to open our bedroom window. It was around midnight or 1 or something. And he pushed on it to open it and his hand went through it. He was bleeding, has some jagged cuts. And i had to clean up shattered glass. Oh i was even more pissed.
Dont people freaking understand it? Ive talked to EVERYONE who lives in my complex AT LEAST once! I say, when you smoke with the door open the smoke DOES NOT go outside, it blows inside, It floats UPSTAIRS to my house, then when i open the door it vaccume sucks it into my house, Even without me opening the door, the door is so broken that it comes inside.
I have KIDS, I have athsma. My husband smokes. OUTSIDE, even when its 20 below and blowing. He goes outside! He never would consider smoking in the halls, No more then he would burst into someone elses house and light up. Every time someone sits in the hall its like them sitting in my house and smoking. Exposing my sons. Brennan who has weak lungs since birth, and Conner who has a very small and weak immune system. All my fucking neighbors are welcome to poision themselves. But im getting SOOOO pissed off with them Poisioning ME and MY kids.

I dont ingest that poisionous shit. I dont like to inhail rat poision, pesticides, and asbestos. I dont want that crap in my body, if i did, i would grab a cig and smoke. You are WELCOME to do it. Just NOT where it gets in my kids lungs. Would you hold a cig up to your childs mouth? My neighbors are pregnant, have kids, are a bit older. And they all smoke. And thats FINE for them! But not for ME! There are kids on the top floor, there is a pregnant girl on the top floor, WE DONT SMOKE. and we dont want to.

Why the hell are people so freaking rude and uncaring as to keep smoking. This isnt a personal attack, this is me getting so fucking frustrated. Because ive asked. I have said PLEASE, nicely. and EVERYONE has said, no problem, ill go outside. Yet people still sit in the halls and smoke, sit in the hall with the door open and smoke. Im just so tired of people not being considerate.
I know i bitch about it alot. But im thankful ill be moving soon, and i will be moving into a place where the no smoking rule is ENFORCED

.
Anyway ive bitched enough, time to go do something productive in my house. Clean the kiddos room or something lol.
