My friend Arleen shared this post earlier this week. OMG this is the cutest thing ever. Every time he has a child he creates them a gmail account and throughout their life sends them emails and notes and pictures. I know a few people that do this. They even go one step further and give the email address out to family and friends and they all send pictures and notes to the child.
Earlier this week I read this post. I had actually read it when it first was published and sadly I didn’t even remember…I only remembered because I noticed I left a comment. Anyway it REALLY got me thinking. I have this weird part of me that dreams of doing CRAZY things…but then my practical brain shuts them down.
Like in this article this girl worked on a cruise ship and then for the CIRCUS. As kids my sister and I LOVED the circus. We used to talk about how we were going to run away to the circus. The Disney Channel had this “reality show” about a traveling circus that we were OBSESSED with. I’m not sure about the circus part anymore but working on a cruise ship might be fun. I’d get to travel the world and see a lot of places. Oh a girl can dream…
I haven’t blogged about blogging in awhile. Well have no fear my friend Megan shared this post she wrote about 99+ ways to make money blogging for everyone to check out. I need to invest some time into this post and these resources she has shared.
My friend Jen from Five Minute Fridays featured me on her blog this week in a blog hop about writing. I’ll be posting my version next week once I decide which awesome bloggers I would like to feature in my version of the blog hop. It was awesome to get featured! It was also awesome to connect with another single blogger!
This time next week I will be in SAVANNAH, GA for the Not Alone Series meet-up!! I am super excited about this weekend, to get away, and meet the girls I’ve been talking with on the interwebs for the past year. I actually haven’t done a lot of traveling in Georgia other than a 2 day stay-over in Atlanta on our drive home from NY to TX many summers ago summer. I’ve driven through the state a ton but never really stopped. Almost every day I pass a highway sign that says “Savannah this way” and every day I go the other direction but next week I get to follow it!! AHHHH
I’m actually looking forward to this weekend. I saw online that a high school drama camp is performing Grease this weekend downtown! So we’re going to go to Mass and then to see Grease! Last year they did Footloose and they did a great job…I love musicals (and I’m slacking on my 30 before 30 task to see more).
I also bought a groupon for a water park and a segway tour (It was BOGO). We’re hoping to go to the water park on Sunday (if weather cooperates). I have a year to do the segway tour so we’re probably going to wait to do that in the fall when it gets cooler out. Although I’m not sure who will do it with me…I may give it to my sister for her birthday gift because she was jealous we got to do it in Paris.

I love that gmail idea! I was thinking of doing something similar for my brand new nephew (the first one too), but I think I’m going to have a physical copy, and write letters in a journal to him. Imagine that as a graduation present or something similar! 🙂

I do too! The problem I have with a journal/physical copy is that uh I would probably lose it about 10 times in 18 years. Unless gmail disappears It’ll always be there :).

Thanks for mentioning Eva’s site Beth – we were absolutely fascinated by Mel’s experiences on the cruise ship and how she used the opportunity to pay off so much of her student loan debt!
