It’s been quite a weekend.

Ariel is getting very interested in my medical transcription work. She loves to pretend to listen to the doctors just like mommy, and often puts my headphones on her teddy bear too.

We’re looking at moving in the next few months. Brent keeps thinking apartment, but I’m pricing mobile homes - not pretty, but cheaper than apartments and you’re building some sort of equity. More room in most cases too. Can’t afford a standard home in this market, so this strikes me as a fair alternative. Other thing we’re considering is moving north a county or two, so we’re still near relatives but not that far away.

I almost have my jewelry website up. Just a little more to go, but I need the domain name to propagate to the host I decided to point it to (I needed more features than my other hosting had) in order to finish it up. Pure torture having to wait sometimes. I want to start marketing and getting links for it!

I’ve joined Digital Point’s Coop Advertising Network. It puts ads for other sites on the bottom of my website (on Aspects of Home Business only at this point; I’m still testing) and places my ad on other websites. Some people have apparently had good results already with this in terms of backlinks listed in the search engines. I’m going to see how it works before adding it to my other websites, but if it works like me as it does for others, it will be well worth my time.
