When I went to tvbydirect.com it was with the intention of getting BRAVO because so many people at my office were talking about it. A strange thing happened, though, and I got engaged shortly after so now I spend all my time in front of the TV watching wedding show after wedding show. My favorite is the Ultimate Wedding Show with David Tutera because he’s got so many great ideas about things to do to make your wedding really unique. I don’t know where in the world he got the idea to do a guest book out of smooth rocks instead of an actual guest book but I think that’s just the coolest thing I’ve ever heard of and I can’t wait to find out more! I just wish our big day would get here sooner, to be honest with you, since thinking about weddings is just about all I feel like I do anymore. I know that sounds like whining and I guess it is, but I just never thought I’d get so sick of this process!

The gAdget Obsession
I appreciate the guest post, Marian Combs
Working from home is great but I tell you one thing, it’s gotten me really addicted to shopping online. I don’t shop for clothes, though, I like to look at gadgets! Since I’m always in touch with the clients and my office I’ve got all kinds of little communication gizmos that help me… I was one of my first friends to have an iPad and of course I’ve got ever version of the Droid they make. I guess you could call me a gadget hoarder! I went online to look at directTV last week and decided I have to have it too, if only because that’s one gadget I know my wife can get behind. She can watch all her sappy BRAVO shows and I’ll get all the big games on my already huge TV – what’s not to love? I’ve been looking for my next purchase and I think this is it but if my wife knew how little time I’ve been working this week she would haul off and kill me!

Time for a New Laptop
One thing you'll learn about making money online is that it really helps to keep your technology up to date. I am going to be in the market for a new laptop soon and this time I am considering purchasing an apple laptop. I have always been a PC user but about a year ago I purchased an Apple Imac for my son and I am really impressed with the Apple company and their computer equipment.
I am still figuring out which model to purchase but I really like the super thin laptop models that I have been seeing alot lately. Light weight really appeals to me since I take my laptop with me most everywhere I go. I'll post an update once I figure out exactly what model to purchase.

Getting Things in Order
Todays Guest post has been written by Marla Billkins
This month, we are in the process of putting the final touches on refurbishing our old home. We just took advantage of the connecticut sears cabinet refacing offer, and I'm proud to say that we are pretty much done with everything that we wanted to do with the house. We have one last thing, and that's get an early start on spring cleaning. We have mounds and mounds of old stuff inside the house that we just don't need anymore. Sure, some of it has sentimental value, it just all keeps adding up and we lose a lot of free space in the house.
We live in a house that is pretty close to the beach, so over the summer, we usually play host to a lot of our friends and family members. It's nice to have people over, but we definitely don't want them to have to stay in a pig sty. We are going to stop using the guest room as storage space and get it back into condition so that we can have people over again. I can't believe it's that time already.

Make Money Online with Squidoo
I created 6 or 7 Squidoo lenses last winter as a way to build inbound links to my websites and kind of forgot about them. A few days ago I logged into Squidoo and found that I had earned $1.65. Not alot of money I know but my theory is that if I can make $1.65 then I can double it and make $3.30. If I can make $3.30 I can double that and make $6.60 and so on. You get the idea.
Squidoo shares its Adsense earnings with those who create lenses. I found a formula once. The more highly your Squidoo lens is rated the higher your percentage of earnings. Here is an examples of my squidoo lenses:

Create a Zazzle Store
Zazzle allows you to upload your own orignal artwork and photographs and design great products like t-shirts, bags, mugs, and even skateboards and shoes. Your designed items can be purchased by anyone and this is a great form of passive online income.
My first Zazzle product that sold was a pair of womens Keds sneakers that I had designed with photos of my peony flowers that I grow (and also sell online). They sold about a month after I had designed the shoes on Zazzle. I earned almost $10 as a royalty on my design from Zazzle. The customer had bee referred from my website http://www.bridgewatergardens.com/ so I earned another $10 in referral fees. Not bad for my first sale on Zazzle.
Please visit my blog http://www.travelwithpaula.blogspot.com/ which will give you more information on one of my Zazzle Stores.
