Daily Update

Hi Everyone!

Hope you're having a great day. I'm working on a survival workshop of all things. People have been asking me questions about storing food, etc. in what is being called "these tough economic times" so I'm putting together a two hour workshop. I'm planning on it being held the end of May. I'll also put the info here on the blog when it's finished.

I'm also working on emails today for new people who've joined my "list". I'm giving out some good info I found for building, planning and maintaining websites.

Have a wonderful day!

Nothing Exciting, But Necessary

Yesterday I spent the day doing computer maintenance as well as backing up my hard drive onto disc's. I also spent some time writing and keeping up with friends. Then we had church so it was a good day, and I accomplished some things that needed done.

Today I worked at church all day, and spent a lot of that time rearranging some things in the office.

I am going through all the products I have the rights to and am going to be putting a lot of the one's that have helped me the most on my website as freebies. If they helped me, maybe they'll help someone else.

Had a meeting tonight and I'm tired, so that's all folks, have a great evening (or day, depending on when you're reading this.

Day Off

I sort of took a day off. Monday's are the days I usually reserve to play, clean house, cook etc. Today that didn't work. Instead I did things that needed to be done for church. So, tomorrow I'll do the things that I planned to do today.

Sometimes, things don't work out as planned, so we just need to do what has to be done and regroup. I'm sure you've had that happen. It's just a part of life that things don't work out the way we planned. It's okay, tomorrow is another day.

Had lot's of great things happen today. Was able to get some important things done for the church and for some of the members. THAT is a good thing.

Tomorrow while cooking, doing laundry and cleaning I'll be taking breaks to do the following:

catch up on email

catch up on friends on social networks

write more on ebook

check stats

write more for autoresponder

work more on website

Have a great week.

One Of Those Day's - Weeks - Months - Years?

Today on a forum I belong to I saw this post:

"I've had enough of everything going wrong, and I do mean everything, there's not one single thing I've done since starting that has worked first time and not caused, days, weeks of trying to sort out before moving on.

Not going to depress you all, you're all great and I wish you all the luck and success in the world, but it's obvously not for me.

You really are such a lovely bunch and I love you all, I would say though, it hasn't been only two weeks, I've been struggling with this many, many weeks before this forum became live, and it is a sad fact, that everything I touch, goes wrong or doesn't work, for some reason or other, and after you've have many months of this sort of thing, the spirit and fight is just knocked out of you.

I've been trying for so long, and still have'nt got it together (I'm 64 by the way), even though I follow instructions to the letter, I don't get the expected result - so then what ? I have to ask questions, send out pleas for help, it all takes so much time.

I've put so much into this, I have written my own 70-page ebook, I believe in my product, it is so applicable to the situation in the world today, I also believe that I would sell my ebook, but if I can't get to grips with the techie stuff, then I'm dead in the water.

I'm tired of trying folks, as I said, it hasn't just been a couple of weeks, sometimes it takes longer than that to get one query answered, and I've had so many of them.

I gave it my best shot, but it's not to be, I know when I'm banging my head against a brick wall, and it's time to go.

The very best of luck to each and every one of you ............."

I've had times that I've felt like that. What about you? Listen, life is life. It has it's ups and downs. And when you're down, the LAST thing you want to hear are a bunch of platitudes. I do understand that.

I don't know this person well enough to speak into their life. But if I did, this is what I'd say.

"I understand. I really do. Learning something new, especially something technical is tough. But DON'T give up on your dream. You've written a book, something that is applicable to today's world. WE NEED IT. You don't have the "right" not to share what God has given you to share. Take a few days off, find the help you need, then begin again. You've already found some ways not to do what you're trying to accomplish. Now discover the ways to get it done!"

REMEMBER, "If you can be stopped, you will be." Refuse to be stopped.

Missed Wednesday But I Wasn't Slackin'

Hi everyone,

I missed Wednesday but I wasn't slackin', I promise. I was busy writing my newsletters to put on my autoresponder. Got them loaded today so I'm set for a few weeks. I'm starting to love the autoresponder!

I spent some time today playing with the template. Still can't get it to do what I want it to do - so tomorrow I watch the video again! I will get it.

Wrote some more on the ebook I'm working on. Sent some promotion emails for the giveaway events I'm a part of. Also did my first zipped file today and uploaded it.

On a more personal note, I had the cutest conversation with my 3 almost 4) year old granddaughter Annabelle.

She decided not to wake mommy and daddy up this morning and with her 2 year old sister, snuck in the room grabbed the cell phone and crept down the stairs. (She said she thought mommy should sleep.)

With the cell phone she started pressing buttons (she got the one's programmed in the thing), and she called several people. Finally she got me. We talked 4 times. :) She sang the abc song to me and just chatted on something fierce. It was so cute. Finally, the last time she called she said, "Grandma, Lily is getting in trouble. She's taking everything out of the cupboards and is making a mess." I told her to go get mommy up and she said, "Okay, I'll hide the phone so Lily can't get it." I said, "No - take it with you." The she said, "Okay" and HUNG UP!

A few minutes latter I talk to mommy. She couldn't believe she slept through all that. But well, that's what Annabelle and Lily wanted!

Ofcourse mommy had a discussion about not getting up and going downstairs by themselves. :)

Well, hope you all had a great day!

What a few mind spinning days. We have had two of our computer's being worked on. One at the church and one at home. Larry Walker (God BLESS You) has been doing all the work. He still isn't done but has made some major helpful changes!

I have been working on my website (you can't see it yet) and I have begun making lot's of changes. I have the plans all drawn out so I don't get lost with what I want to do with each page. Have added extra links for books I want to give away. Chris Farrell made a video for me to show me how do bundle some together and get them up on the web site. THANK YOU CHRIS! I am a member of his membership site and he is a fantastic teacher and has so many helpful things for his members, video's, articles, etc. Too much to mention. You can check it out here:
http://www.chrisfarrellmembership.com

I found a template I think will work great. Can't wait until I have the page done so I can see if it's really what I want.

I have several articles ready to go on my blog at http://www.frugalebizproducts.com/blog that I will be putting up tomorrow.

I've also been working on the autoresponder book I'm writing.

Hope you have a great week!

Autoresponder Fun!

I discovered today as I was about to add the autoresponder code for my sign up page that I didn't save the code to add to other pages. Thank God that Chris Farrell teaches so well. I went to a page that I had put the sign up on and (in Kompozer) clicked on source, found it and pasted onto notepad so I can add it on all my pages. I want to give people the opportunity on every page to sign up for the newsletter and get a free ebook.

My computer didn't have internet for a while today, but it's taken care of.

Have a great week.

Today I went and helped with Kiwanis Kids Against Hunger and we put together a soup mix. It will feed six. When done, we'll have done enough to feed 50,000 people. It'll go to the local food banks. I DID NOT look cute in the hairnet and no make up!

I've written 2 newsletter emails to put on my autoresponder. Hope to have 6 done by this evening. Depends on how long it takes the MSU Spartan's to beat Conneticut tonight!

Have a great day everyone!

One of Those Days!

Have you ever had a day when every single thing you tried to do presented an opportunity to learn something new. I had one of those today. Here's a few examples:

Started working on ebook - nope, wasn't flowing properly. Had to rework outline. :)

Got a notice from the Mother's Day Giveaway my link for the ebook I entered wasn't working -they were right. Got that fixed.

Got another notice that the book I'm giving away on http://www.frugalebizproducts.com isn't working. (Create Your First Website By 3:45 This Afternoon) Got that fixed.

Logged onto skype, checked sound, that wasn't working. Finally got that taken care of.

Went to record another video, that STILL isn't working - that's why I'm writing instead of talking with you through a video message. :)

So... today I've learned how to fix a few things.

Tomorrow I spend the morning putting food boxes together for Kiwanis Kids Day Against Hunger. Hopefully in the afternoon I'll get some writing done!

If you haven't yet, check out these giveaways, they have some great products!

Played Hooky Today

Hi ya'll,

I played hooky today. Nice spring weather and it's going to snow Monday and Tuesday so I HAD to take today off and enjoy the weather. :)

Well, I did write a little, but not enough to count.

Hope you've had a great day!

Writing

Today I'm writing an ebook on autoresponders. There is so much to learn about them and how to use them in your buisness or organization. This ebook will be for beginner's. Ofcourse I'm not an expert on them all but I've had great success with GetResponse and so I'll be using that as an example.

I'm learning how to correctly use Open Office to write my ebook. It will give my ebooks a more professional look.

Have a great day!
