Smorty: earn money with your blog!

There are tons of services out there that allow you to blog for money. I personally have tried out a few of these programs, and so far I really enjoy Smorty. Smorty allows you to conduct blog advertising and you get paid to blog. There are some people who look down on people who are getting paid to blog, but I don’t truly see anything wrong with it. You generally pay for your own space to blog, so why not allow it to make you money?

It is very easy to earn money with Smorty, you simply write a post reviewing or sharing your thoughts on a company or their product and submit the URL and post title through smorty’s website. You get paid weekly for doing the things you love!

layout block

This layout has managed to make it to a second winter making it up-to-date with the season in my part of the world. Not that it ever really snows here, but it makes me happy to think that my trusty dusty layout is still up, and it’s still snowing! Ha, how silly.

I’ve definitely hit a roadblock with my designs, and kelleyroo hasn’t had a layout created solely by me in a while.  I don’t know what that means or where all my creativity went. I don’t know if it’s from all the stress I’ve been through lately or what. It makes me sad and irritated at the same time, I used to design so much. It was all I ever did.

Maybe it’s my job?  :Z

Time off

My cousin Les has always been a little partial to pens. I’m not sure why she likes to collect them so much but I remember she used to carry a million and one around with her in her purse. She is the same way with pills/vitamins. Yes, vitamins. She’s a weird little cookie.

The next couple weeks at work are going to be a breeze, I get Friday the 14th off, as well as the 20th-25th, and then the 31st and 1st of January. That’s a total of seven days off this month not including the weekends. RIGHT ON!

crickets

I had the strangest dream this morning, it was one of those extremely vivid dreams where you can feel everything that is happening to you.

I was very very pregnant in this dream, and I’m not sure if that’s how it really feels to be preggo but it was so very uncomfortable. I’m not sure how far along I was supposed to be but it felt like someone had jammed a bowling ball in my belly. It was HUGE and it felt so real. I think the funniest part about it is that the father was one of Paul’s old roomates, Bam, who I believe was from India. At least in my dream he definitely was.

I was discussing having pregnancy photos taken with Bam’s mother who told me there must be crickets on/in the photo (which I ended up suggesting to photoshop them in.. ha ha haaa) and that Bam wanted me to be laying on my side in the pictures. I mean this shit was weird.

I had a big wad of gum in my mouth and as I was chewing, something really gross and green started to come out, and in turn I started to vomiting. So then my grandfather shows up and rubs my back while I’m puking.

I so never want to be pregnant if it’s anything like that dream.

*I assure you I am really NOT pregnant.

edit: I don’t know how much I believe that dreams can foreshadow events in your life, but Toya once told me if you dream about being pregnant it means someone is going to die. I looked it up on  one of those dream dictionary sites, and it said if you are unwed you will experience loss. I looked up “crickets” and it said I will experience the death of a distant friend. Creepy.

insurance anyone?

Term life insurance is insurance that only lasts for a set period of time. It is generally supposed to be lowcost but I don’t really understand the point of it. When I think of LIFE insurance, I think of insurance on your LIFE, not just a few years of your life. I guess it could be useful for your children or something like that, insure them while they’re young and once they’re old enough they can do it themselves.

I am very tired today, even though I fell asleep around 10:30 and got up at 9am. I think I must’ve got too much sleep, unlike the night before where I got not even close to enough. Bleh.
