Look What I Found!

I spent some time yesterday looking through a few pages of posts on Sabrina’s Money Matters and found some gems that I wanted to share with you. Every writer will agree that everything they write is not top notch quality. Some days I’m grasping for anything, I’ll watch the news just to get an idea of what to write about sometimes.

Yet it doesn’t always yield a fresh idea and I’m forced to find a new avenue and today is one of those days for me. I’ve got dark clouds in the mind today and clouds behind my eyes as well. Sabrina’s Money Matters was my first blogging effort, maybe I shouldn’t have started with a niche blog, but I still get some traffic to her and have been writing there again little by little.

The first post I want to share with you is called Security in an Insecure World. I thought of this post when I was working with the investigative firm that I just recently left and thought it would be good to share with my readers just where exactly our personal information is stored that we don’t think about until it’s too late.

The next post I want to share with you is a fun post I wrote as part of a small series of cheap dating ideas to use that guarantee fun, but not a big dent in the wallet. This post is called $20 Dates, The Living Room Luau. Not a bad post to read before Friday night.

Another post I wanted especially to highlight was How to Lock Your Credit Report. You can do it without Lifelocks’ help and monthly fee. Realistically I don’t like Lifelock I think it provides a false sense of security. But that’s another post, and one I’ll save for Sabrina’s Money Matters probably, so sign up for the SMM feed if you haven’t already so you don’t miss that post.

Last for now, but definitely not least, is an article I wrote that still gets a surprising amount of traffic. SMCStreet.com and NewFuture.com are highlighted as scams in this post. In this article I even refer you to websites to teach you what these companies are trying to sell you.

That’s all for now folks, hopefully tomorrow I’ll be in a better mood and can write something fun for you.

What Would You Do? Meme

Today is all about wishful thinking. :D

This is a short meme, but it’s fun. Come and dream for a while and escape what’s around you right now and forget your problems, even if only momentarily….let’s dream together today about things that we may never get to do, have or be….

What would you do with your time if you never had to work another day and your expenses all were covered?
I would blog still of course, and I’d start writing on SabrinasMoneyMatters.com again as well, since I’d have more time to research all my ideas. I’d travel in the summers and while away my days as a writer should…writing.

What would you study if you could go to college for free?
I have already investigated this since I’m looking to go back to school full time, I’ll be majoring in Communication Technology with a minor in Journalism. Got to hone these skills.

Where is the one place you have always wanted to go, but haven’t gotten to go yet?
I would like to go to Ireland most of all, in the 90′s Garth Brooks did a live concert there and I remember thinking the landscape was beautiful.

What is the one thing you’d like to accomplish more than anything in the world?
I’d like to know that I’m a good mom. Which I hope to know once my son is older by his relationship with me. But that is the one job I feel that is the most important for me to do right.

When I was younger I dreamed a lot of dreams, as I’ve gotten older I’ve seen the flaws in some of those dreams, but reminisced at my innocence in having them. I believe that dreaming is a large part of life, it helps with that little push everyday to get out of bed and try another day to get closer to one of them, even if not all of them.

The rules of this meme are to answer the questions and tag three other people to pass this meme on to. I am taging Rachel, Debo and DCR! Of course everyone knows when you tag DCR, be prepared for an onslaught.

:twisted: Bring it on!
