First Blog ever for me....

I wonder as I type how many others have never written a blog? Am I alone in this? I do not have a myspace either. I do however have an on-line store finally. I had to learn how to create a website. For someone who knows how to post, email, and chat only on the computer it was a rather large project. One in which I have lost a lot of hair and sanity! I have learned so much and have to say the company I went with for hosting ( Poweb) has made most of it pretty easy. That which I could not figure out they have wonderful help on the phone. I think they now have me on the caller ID and fight over who has to answer my calls. LOL!! I do have to say I am proud of what I have on my site so far. After I type this I am going to try to figure out how to incorporate this into my site page. Maybe a warm bubble bath first will calm my nerves so I can figure it out without spitting on my computer screen. I am also trying to learn how to be seen by the search engines and the world. With a very small budget to get this business going I am relying mostly on free advertising for the moment. Some day I will have billboards and radio commercials, (this is part of my learning "the secret" and thinking positive to bring all the business I can handle to my new store). So for anyone reading this please help me get the site name out there!!!! www.allmomentsremembered.com

I would like to get others to join me in my blogs. We can post about many subjects but my all time favorite would be scrapbooking. We could keep each other up to date on whats hot out there. Give directions on how to make different projects and on and on. So please join in to any post you want and lets get this going. I have made so many on-line friends over the years and many I have even met in person. I look forward to getting to know others and sharing fun scrapbooking stuff.

So a little about me....
I am married to my soul mate. You know the dream you have as a little girl about what kind of man will be the perfect husband? You know the one where he is prince charming? Well my dream came true when I met my husband. I am also a mother of four great kids. I have two teens, reason #2 for pulling most of my hair out! I also have a 7 yr old son and a 5 yr old daughter. I love being a mom and wife. We live in a small town which NONE of my friends thought I would stay in let alone like it. I love it! Did I mention I love it? I do! Our summers are hot and our winters are cold with little snow. We own a miniature poodle named Dolly. We rescued her from the pound and have had and adored her for almost two years. She is good with the kids, can also jump better then any Jack Russel terrier I have ever seen. Her only problem is she hates other dogs and attacks them. She has no fear of being a small dog and going after a HUGE dog, this has caused us a few near deaths for her. I love to cook and make dinner nearly every night. I love dinner time because we all sit together and enjoy each others company with no TV or phone. Seems like a lot of families no longer do this. I highly recommend it at least try for it a few times a week. Scrapbooking is my hobby and now job. Well do you call it a job when all you have done is gotten a store online? Now I just need to make sales and then I can officially call it a J-O-B!! It will happen! So tell me a little about you and lets get this blog hopping!
Happy to be healthy,
Stacey

Hi Stacey - Great job on your new blog! If you can learn how to start a shopping website, blogging will be a breeze for you. I enjoyed learning about you in your first post. I will add you to my list of Blogs by CKMBers and I will stop by often. Best of luck with your new business. (You fixed it - thanks!)
