Keep On Truckin'


This is just a quick post, primarily because I don't want to get out of the habit of posting every day. Haven't heard back from Cloud10 about rescheduling training. Choosing not to worry about it.

Boring details:

1. I finished up laundry for my backbreaking cleaning job tomorrow.
2. Ran to Pensacola with my dad to look at the possibility of getting a new computer. We did not because it's hard to get them new with Windows XP - a Cloud10 requirement. A requirement I'm starting to disagree with. (Chuckle - the visual of my dad and me actually running to P'cola - by the bay, on 98, over the bridge, etc -Silly).
3. Suffered most of the day with cramps (I'll leave it at that).
4. Ended up talking again to Computer Masters Tech guy extraordinaire, Steve. He gave me some good advice about wiping my computer again and a better way to reload Windows. He also ruled out the possible problem with the headset, which I had pretty much already ruled out with some other tests.
5. Spent eve in recliner with adorable wee min pin, Coco, snoozing at my feet on recliner while I loaded every possible necessity and driver onto thumb drive. So's I kin git to crackin' on the reloadin' of the Operatin' Seestom tomorrah eve. Oh, all occurred while Les Miserables played on the DVD and Cheryl commented often to my "uh huh". (You KNOW Les Miz viewing was inspired by the lovely Miss Susan Boyle. )

Yahoo Cap'n Phillips (Sp?) has made it home safely!

Funny pic of a sleepy Coco taken by me.

Blogger 101: Where did my blog traffic go?


This is a curious thing. Earlier this week I had all these folks coming to my site. By yesterday my traffic dropped off to a trickle. It makes me wonder how they got here and why they stopped. I'm looking into it.

Does blogger/Google drive folks to your site for you to get a leg up? Were there pop ups on my site from affiliate program ads that scared my peeps away? Are people still coming but my counters not tracking them? The number from the Blogger monetize tab is different from my counter by about 20. The more I learn the more questions I have. From reading I've done so far, you have to market your site in various ways. One thing I've done is listed my site on my local newspaper website. I may list it on the backs of local Catholic church bulletins. Time will tell.

Speaking of time, mine is running out this am. I have to go set up my modem and phone for my "Getting Operational" session at noon. Dearest Coco the wee min pin is at my side and will be sad when I have to banish her, Festus, and Gracie to the garage for my session. The pic above is of coco taken by her Aunt Cheryl. Keep my computer and me in your prayers this day ;).
