20 August 2013

Hello all,  Its been about a month and I feel as though so much has happened.  Each day brings me closer to my goal and I am super excited for that result.  I still can not share my plan with you all but I can tell you the steps I have taken to reach that goal.  My friend Arlene, hooked me up with Credit Karma.com so I can monitor my credit.  It is heading me in the right direction to get that straightened out.  I found a great origami tulip that looks so awesome when I make it that I plan on letting that be my first item for sale.  I haven't figured out which platform I will use to sell my 'treasures' but will let you all know when I do.  I keep stealing my Aunt's mail and any newspapers I can get, I am also dismantling the old magazines from my magazine hunt days for whole pages I can use to make and fold into baskets and flowers.  LOL.  Its ALOT of fun and super easy.  I bought some 3 inch and 2 inch colored post it notes to make colorful tulips and flowers.  I will post some later on.  For some reason my phone is no longer auto uploading the pictures I take with my phone so my trash to treasure blog has been suffering.  I have so much on my plate I don't always get to everything every day.
I found some new ways to make swagbucks and have bought the rest of my IPad parts.  I have received my LCD screen, just waiting on my wifi cord and volume buttons to come in.  Hopefully my IPad doctor can repair it this time. 
Oh!  I bought a domain!  I am now at graphittienterprises.com  I get one free page with my domain and it is only limited to four apps but its a start!  I am excited about that.  Right now its just another presence on the net but I think the first thing I will do with it is to make a store front on that domain.  A store in which I sell all these little trinkets I make in my spare time.  Selling prices will be pretty low considering I am NOT a professional, everything is handmade and looks like it, and its all (or mostly) made out of what others would throw away.  I am super excited about this concept.  Another idea I have is to upload onto that site my preschool program I designed.  I am actually thinking of redesigning the letter book covers to make it my own.  And adding letter books for the phonetic sounds I have in my curriculum.
I'm not sure I told you already but I monetized my youtube videos and there are a few vids of Lila and Raven on there.  I can't monetize them all since some are with songs that are not mine on there.  But those that I can are.  There is also a vid or two of my nieces, a super cute video of my niece JuJu playing a kazoo and dancing.  It is so funny, but the noise in my apt when I recorded it made it less funny with sound.  I dunno, you can be the judge of that. 

Well folks, I think Im all talked out for now.  I will come back soon and let you in.  And, as always hit the donate button.  All monies go to buying my first home for my girls and I.  Thanks!
