Merry Christmas!

Join PM Blog Network’s Christmas Giveaway!

PM Blog Network is hosting a Christmas Giveaway!

With a lot of blogs looking for and dreaming about their domain and hosting, this is a perfect giveaway.
With my own giveaway that I had, I know how much bloggers would love to have their own domain and hosting, myself included since I do want to have a WP blog now, well, at least next year.

First things first:

I nominate: Mona of Working at Home for a domain and hosting as she is one of those bloggers who continues to visit even if my domain giveaway and my contest is over, and is thoughtful enough to leave comments even  in my senseless ramblings.

Note to others: will be nominating you as well, since there are unlimited nominations. Can you nominate me too? I want to have WP!!!( Shameless plug!)

PM Blog Network in cooperation with Mom's Hosting and SAHM Hosting and of course Mommy Ruby of Pinay Mommy Online is hosting a Christmas Giveaway!!!

Did you join my Blog Contest?

Hi! If you were one of those who joined my blog contest last October, and you're still subscribed here...Here's a little something something for you.


Do you know me?

Can you guess what I'm giving out?


Not cash, sorry... it has to do with the forms you filled up. Since I couldn't grant the wish of everyone who joined...well...here's the something.

If you click the link, then you'll know.

It's your choice if you want it. No strings attached.

Just that it's free and it's from me.

That's how much I love you.


This is classified and geared for all those who joined my contest.

If you're a SAHM, or WAHM, or a SAHD, or a WAHD and you're interested in teaching your kids at Home... here something for you.

You want to relax and you like Time Management (DASH) Challenges.... well this is for you... It's the newest one out...grab it here or here.


Well, if I get bored and don't know what else to do with my blog... I'll give out more freebies like this one.

Tell me, if you liked them...

*Note: I get more comments when I don't have my chat box, why? Hmm...

I'm still looking for shareworthy stuff... throw in your ideas. I'd love to do a change...I am getting bored. I miss the excitement of hosting a contest...but then I've already depleted my paypal and I am proud to say that I am proud of my gifts to my kids, and that it came from my blogging money... which is not too much but then hey, this is the year I started to earn, so I'm happy. (Super running sentence)

Weddings!

December is really a perfect month for weddings, but that is just my opinion. My guy bestfriend got married in December... the sponsors are more generous with regards to gifts or at least there is more money to spend for a gift. The weather is cool and here in our country that is a major plus factor.  


I wonder if I had gotten married in France... then maybe I could have a chateau marriage.  That must be so dreamy.. then I could proudly say come next December that  I am going to celebrate my aniversaire mariage next year in  a romantic dinner in  French bistro. 


Anyone here knows french? Can you translate this? enterrement de vie de garcon 
If I had to guess, I am betting it has something to do with entertainment... I'd love to have a live band if I ever celebrate my wedding anniversary in a big way.


But then I'm a cheap skate...a movie date or a dinner date would just be fine with me. 

Happy Birthday Paul!

Doing this  a bit intoxitcated )(very debatable) due to all the symbols symbols showing up and the space which is not provided for.... but then, hey.... this is an experiment to my prowess in typing even if I'm intoxicated as the legal term implies. Smell my breath...better yet...stay away.


Happy birthday to my favorite son....





When he gets older he will discover he is my only son...what do i tell him then?


Finally, 3 years old... oh wait, I have to go to sleep because we have to celebrate again tomorrow with your clssmates.

Seriously..... I love you Paul, you're so sweet and you look like your dad. i love you. don't ever ever forget that.... i may be mommy monster.... but that's because i love you too much. mwah.

What to do with your Paypal Money?

Yay! I'm back! Sorry...lousy internet connection


So you have some paypal money, what do you do with it?

  • Most bloggers I know, get Union Bank EON Cards - then they can withdraw their paypal earnings that way.
  • Other bloggers use other banks.
  • A few use Smartmoney. 
Above examples are for Philippine bloggers. I guess the same thing with others, just find your bank or account that is linked to your paypal.

As a blogger:

  • Invest it in Adgitize, you may or may not get  your earnings back in a month but the views for your blog is priceless. I am certain about that.
  • Spend it on a unique template, premade, or custom made. Branding yourself and being unique will make you and your blog stand out and not be forgotten. I highly recommend Grace, Kaye and Lena.

As a mom:
  •    Spend it on your kids ( that's what I do) - my meager paypal earnings is saved and spent for Christmas gifts for my kids. 
Where do you use your paypal money when you plan to use it for shopping?

My trusted stores are : 
  • Ebay (philippines) or if you have relatives abroad...maybe you can send them your paypal. 
  • Etsy  when I'm feeling artsy
  • Multiply (stores that accept paypal like comeandplay)

Oh, and I got my hubby some shiny... (Backyard monsters coins worth $3. I'm such a cheapskate) or for myself... my favorite scrapkits that go on sale.



What about you? What do you do with your paypal money?
