Becky McCray asked for help so I decided to pass this along. This blogger has the added challenge of cerebral palsy and wants to use the winnings to make her blogging go a bit easier.
Hi everyone,
I would like to thank you all for being such enthusiastic supporters over the past year, particularly with the […]

Hopefully her 8 year old child will receive a kidney. In the meantime one thing that would make life easier is the ability for her to work at home.
I had a similar inquiry from a stay at home mom… I suggested she contact a virtual assistant temp firm.
Hopefully an employer will read the story locally […]

I was sitting at the table yesterday after dinner with our extended family.
It was time to go through an annual ritual… put what you want for Christmas on a piece of paper and someone else will draw your name and get you what you wrote up to a limit of $30.

Having a highly rated lens gets folks who are just “looking around” on Squidoo who are attracted by the name of the lens.
It’s also getting Google and Yahoo traffic after being online a […]

The Angel Food Ministries lens on Squidoo was built last Monday Night. Starting at the bottom, it made it to #113 on Saturday and has stayed there since. Correction: the lens has now moved up to #74 overall on Squidoo!
Can we move it up higher? I say “we” because I need your help! This is […]

I was telling you yesterday that my Squidoo lens about Angel Food Ministries hit the top 500 on Squidoo. Today the lens has started out at #200 of over 230,000.
Let’s keep it climbing in the ranks.
Please visit the Angel Food Ministries lens today! All comments and 5 star ratings are appreciated. They […]

In his book “Thou Shalt Prosper” by Rabbi Daniel Lapin, he asks this question (I paraphrase): “If Mother Theresa is noble for helping the victims of poverty, isn’t it equally noble to help eliminate the poverty?”
When I was pondering that quote, I couldn’t help but think of a recent article regarding KickStart International.
They are all […]
