My New Frugal Family Life Blog

I hope everyone will join me on my new blog, Frugal Family Life. I will be posting free samples, deals, free things to do, recipes and much much more. I will be keeping this blog, just adding a separate one for frugal living. I am now writing on Examiner.com as the NWI Frugal Family Examiner, and created a blog to go along with my new title. I am very excited, and hope to see all of you on the new blog. Again, I am keeping this blog too, just adding an additional blog to my venue.

The Terrible Twos

As parents I believe we should be awarded some sort of medal for living through the tantrums, screaming, and that ever so popular word toddlers love, "No." I have lived through the terrible twos twice, and I am currently reliving them again with my 1 and 2 yr old children. Here is an article I wrote on my tips and tricks that are helping me survive the terrible twos.

Celebrity Psychics

Okay, I admit it, I love the psychic medium John Edward. I have read everyone one of his books, watched all his television shows and even went to several of his venues. For all of you wondering, no I didn't get a reading. I probably won't be attending any more venues. I found out the prices for tickets have risen quite a bit.

If your like me, you might have wondered how much celebrity psychics like Sylvia Browne, Chip Coffee and John Edward charge. I decided to find out. I wrote an article detailing how much each one of them charge, and what you get for the money. It was pretty interesting. If you would like to read the full article here is the link:

Questions to Ask Your Fiance Before You Get Married

ok, I figured since I have been married 20 years there has to be something I might know about marriage..lol. I decided to write an article about What Questions you should ask your fiance before you get married. To keep all of you updated on how much my upfront payments are, this one netted me $2.31. That is not a fortune, but hey it will help me pay for my slow dial up connection ;). Besides, I had fun writing it. So far 87 people have read it! I hope you enjoy it. If you like it, don't be afraid to leave me a comment on Associated Content and here too! I love feedback!

Getting Paid to Write

Well I've been reading about some people making a bit of extra money online by writing articles, reviews, and ect. online. I figured I'd give it a try. I signed up with Associated Content. The pay isn't a lot, but I figure something is better than nothing. I believe it is $1.50 per 1000 hits. You'd have to check out their specifics to be sure. So far I have written a kids recipe and a book review. I am currently waiting to see how it goes. They haven't approved my articles yet. They say it can take a couple of days. Once I find out how it all works, and if it is worth it, I will post and let everyone know. I figured it would help me with my writing. I'd like to be a better writer, and I figured the it would give me some good practice.
