Brenda K Carter

I grew up in Sheboygan, WI which is a city of about 50,000 people, as Brenda K Ehlert. I was very reluctant to change my name when I got married because I think Brenda K Carter sounds too much like a country singer and I am not a great fan of country music.

There really isn't that much to do in Sheboygan unless you are into Beer and Bratwurst. The annual Brat Days is one of the biggest events in the town. A day and a half of indulging in beer and brats, it's great fun.

My family growing up consisted of my mother and father and little brother. Many people tease me nowadays that I had a Donna Reed like childhood, but I guess that's what happens now when staying married is considered the exception instead of the norm.

I moved to Green Bay, WI about 8 years ago and met my husband, soon after that. Married life for the two of us has been pretty rough so far, but things are looking up. You can read more about some of our struggles at my blog: Down On Our Luck.

I graduated from Lakeland College shortly after moving to Green Bay also and soon after started working as an accounting clerk for a small company in Kimberly, WI.

I a proud adoptee of two wonderful cats, Bud and Kelly. My next web project will be featuring them and the dogs that my parents own, but I can tell more about that later.

I am an entrepreneur by night selling new and used video games online at The Software Castle. If you're looking to pick up any games, check out my website.

Finding great FREE websites where I can make extra money for myself is one of the ways I spend a lot of my free time. Squidoo is one of those sites and another one is Big Crumbs. If you'd like to make money shopping, visit my lens about one of the easiest ways to make money online. Seriously, I have been paid over $400 and all I have been doing is shopping online. In case you're wondering, since I have joined Big Crumbs, I have only earned just over $80.00 from my own shopping.

I've added to my little online empire recently. Not only do I have over 50 lenses, but I also started a new blog about SquidooAll Squidoo All The Time. I'll be adding even more websites and blogs real soon.

One thing that I haven't mentioned yet is that growing up I marched with the Accents and Buccaneers winter guards for 13 years before aging out. Unfortunately, both of these organizations only exist in our hearts now, but Sheboygan still has one competitive winter guard left by the name of Evolution. If you're looking for some great guard clothes, check out my Guard Clothes lens and make a purchase.

I was going to leave this out for now, but I can't seem to get the football tags off of my lens. In between everything else, I also love to spend my weekends watching football. College or Pro, it doesn't matter. Of course, being from Wisconsin, my favorite teams are The Green Bay Packers and Wisconsin.
