			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi there,</p>
<p>Thanks for taking a few minutes to join me today.</p>
<p>I started to write about some new products that have come out in the last week or so, but there have been so many it is hard to keep up with them all.  Now I am going through them and there have been so many I am debating which ones I want to write about or not.  There are definitely more than enough to go around.   Many are from names which most of us know that have been online for some time.  These are some of our favorite entrepreneurs who have had great products already.</p>
<p>I guess I am puzzled though because it seems as if each of these experts are promoting the other experts products.  I wonder how many products can each of these marketers and entrepreneurs buy or review or go through in such a short amount of time.  I would think they would have to spend all their time just trying out all of these products and I am wondering when they have time to actually do their own writing , producing, inventing and etc.</p>
<p>Does anybody else wonder about that also?  I know these people have many others doing different jobs for them but I would hope if they were going to comment and promote another person&#8217;s product they would know about it first hand and not rely on the word of somebody else.</p>
<p>The other thing I wonder about is why most of these products are mainly endorsed by other famous or well-known people in the same field of expertise.  Experts who have already made their fortune and fame endorsing other experts.</p>
<p>Be back later with the new products that have come out.</p>
<p>Have a great weekend and God Bless.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well, I must say it has been a heck of a weekend.  Yesterday I wrote about starting over and today I definitely am in that same frame of mind.  I do not like to write about depressing things but just to get it off my chest I need to tell you about my weekend.</p>
<p>First of all, it started raining Friday night and did not stop until today (actually this afternoon) here in Elgin, Illinois.  I know many of you have had the same weather that we have.  Well, with it raining for almost 36 hours it decided to come in my house, basically it made the basement its destination.  But, it did not want to leave this time.  I say this time because just in the last month or since sometime in August, my basement has become a friend to the rain water three (at least, I believe three) times.  I did have a flood once last year and that was a whopper.  They said that what happened last August, 2007 was a first and probably would never happen again in the next ten years.  I should have known better.  What happens once is going to happen again.  At least the other times the water decided to bail out on its own.  Not this time.  We even got a Shop Vac to help get the water up but it does not seem to be working.  Anyway, hopefully our Public Works Department can come out and help us tomorrow morning.</p>
<p>I am starting to think we might have some other kind of a leak in the basement and that is why the water is not going down this time.  I hope not because that means I will have to get something fixed which will cost money I do not have.</p>
<p>This house has been a thorn in my side ever since we moved here.  Not little things going wrong.  Always something major.   Buying this house is the worst decision I have ever made.  It actually was a decision I should never have made at the time that I did.  My life partner, Michael, had just passed away from a brain aneurysm which we never saw coming.  Because we were not married, though we had been together for approximately 17 years, the house went to his brother, who by the way, did not even know how to say my name correctly after all those years.  He had not spoken to his brother and brother&#8217;s family for almost three years because of a dispute after their mother and father had died.</p>
<p>Michael was the most generous, most loving and caring man I ever knew.  He was also one of the most giving people I have ever had the privilege to know and be close to.  My daughter loved him as if he were her biological father (as her real father has died when she was quite young).  Actually, he was more of a father to her and more of a partner to me than most husbands and fathers are to their own families.</p>
<p>Anyway, to finish this weekend off, we did go to Church this morning.  But we ended up with a flat tire from a nail being embedded in the tire, had to call AAA to come and change the tire as we did not have the right jack to use.</p>
<p>I was supposed to go to work but decided to call in so I could try to help clear up the mess in the basement which did not happen.  I know, yes I do work on Sundays sometimes.</p>
<p>Okay, so tomorrow is Monday and I have a whole lot of things to do, calls to make and then I still have to go to work.  But I am going to stay optimistic now that I have complained about this weekend to anyone who will read this.  I don&#8217;t blame if you skipped over most of it.</p>
<p>How about anyone giving me any advice, opinions, support?  I would appreciate any words of encouragement in this stressful time.  I do so want to make my life a happier and healthier one.  I know many of my problems I have brought on myself but the rain is not one of them.</p>
<p>Tomorrow, instead of just going on about my life&#8217;s trials and tribulations, I am going to begin a journey of where the Internet is going these days.  WE definitely have a few Super Stars in our midst and I hope to be able to give you some idea of what they are doing right now.</p>
<p>Thanks for listening.</p>
<p>Make Life a Great Journey.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Welcome to my Blog.  I am calling this post Starting All Over as that is what I am doing in many ways.  I am starting this blog over as I changed servers and now until I learn how to put back the posts other settings that was on my blog on my old server I have to start this all over again.</p>
<p>The next thing I am starting all over again is my life, or at least parts of it.  I had a problem with my health and the worst of it was that what was wrong with me did not seem so bad.  It was the treatment that really put me in a bad way and I had (and sometimes still have) problems doing the everyday things I need to.  I am not going to get into that right now, but what I do want to say is I need to start getting into healthier habits and get myself back into action.  In other-words, I am going to make myself into a <strong>healthier</strong> me.</p>
<p>Then there is the fact that I need to try to make myself into a <strong>Happier</strong> me.  Between my health and my finances and the fact that my house is giving me the blues, I was already depressed because of some problems I had, but getting sick really set in a super depression.  So now I am trying to learn ways to get that part of my life back on track.</p>
<p>As soon as I started getting my health back I decided to get a job, which I did.  It is not the easiest or most well paid job but I needed some kind of an income until my work on the internet started taking off, which I hope is soon.   So, again a new start with a job.  I also decided it was time to get myself out of the house as I was spending way too much time inside and by myself and with my computer.  I needed an outlet and I needed to get out, if just to help me keep my sanity in tact.</p>
<p>So you see, I have many facets of my life I am trying to start over.  I guess what I am trying to say is that I need a life, which up to now I have not had much of.  What I did and still have is my wonderful, loving daughter, who I believe without her being here, I might not have made it here to this day to start over again.  I am very thankful to have her in my life and thankful that God blessed me to be the parent of such a wonderful person.</p>
<p>Well, I will continue this later as I have to finish getting ready to go to work.  Yes, I am working on a Saturday afternoon and night.</p>
<p>Anyone want to take a guess what my job is?  C&#8217;mon give it a try.</p>
<p>Also, would anyone comment on starting over.  It is scarey, but exciting.  I have many feelings about it but will get into that another time very soon.</p>
<p>Have a Great Saturday, and maybe I will see you in Church tomorrow (unless you celebrate your religion on Saturday).</p>
