Who in the World is Janet21?

Ranked #4,847 in Squidoo Community, #321,919 overall

Janet21 ~ Lensmaster, Giant Squid, Squid Angel, WAHM

We'll, I have heard that creating a lensography is the hip thing to do on Squidoo these days and that everyone is doing it.  I know, I know, you shouldn't do something just because 'everyone else is doing it', (my mom taught me better) but in this case I think it should be okay.   I am just creating a lensography afterall.  What harm could that do?  Plus, I certainly don't want to be considered "un-cool" by not having one.  I want to be a part of the Squidoo in-crowd. I want to fit in.  Geez, what am I back in highschool? Get a grip on yourself girl! :)

About Me~

A very quick bio!

I have lived my entire life in the great state of New York. I worked in the accounting field for 10 years before leaving my job when my first child was born. I have been a stay at home mom now for 11 years and truly love it! Of course there are some days when I want to pull my hair out, but I wouldn't change a thing. I have three children, 2 girls ages 11 & 8 and a son who is 4. This September my husband and I will celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary and we have been together for a total of 20 years!

I handle the accounting and office work for my husband's construction business as well as run my own image hosting site. I love keeping busy with grown up things. It has helped me to keep my mind sharp while being overwhelmed with diapers, bottles, play dates and soccer practice! :)

I came across Squidoo on a popular webmaster forum I frequently post in. I actually saw the site mentioned three times before I made the decision to join. I guess three times the charm!

    Thanks for the insights into your life and for the great lensmaking example -- I'm finding lensographies to be kind of tricky. You clearly know how to make things happen and you seem to juggle an awful lot with deceptive ease. Blessed.

    Hi Janet, You have some really great lenses and have worked very hard. But I have to laugh because you mention the 3 AM nights and those late Squidoo nights have become a joke in my house. I think there's a lot of us who do our best work in the middle of the night. LOL

    Hi Janet, great lensography. Even though I am new to Squidoo I might write one as well, and then do an update in a years time, or something like that, thanks for the inspiration!

    OMGoodness, yes! I have seen you around, of course, but I did not know we had SO much in common! I am a SAHM too, also stay up til 3 a.m. making lenses, am a Giant Squid 100, have lenses on death of pets (which is kind of an odd subject) and I love birthday party themes and cakes! I have been married 27 years.
    I am the Feature Writer for the Kids & Teens Parties section on Suite101 - Maybe I can interview you or something some time! Too bad we are on opposite sides of the USA -- I think we'd be good pals!

    Dear Janet, I'm thrilled to have FINALLY come across your name and your outstanding work! It's almost "a deja vu" for me, since I'm also a work at home mom and wouldn't change it for the world. What an eyeopening experience to read your "workathomewithsquidoo" lens and compare your tips with my own Squidoo attempts! I have A LOT to do yet and cannot thank you enough for making such a helpful guide for us little squids:-) Thanks again!

    Hi Janet,
    Thank you for writing all you have written on Squidoo. Your lens is the first I have read since joining and before even deciding what my lens will be about. I liked the encouraging bit most. Your candid view of how long it will take to start earning a decent sum with squidoo really brought me back to earth of my high horses of thinking I have just discovered my personal money minting machine. Anyway, i ll keep and open mind and set up as many lens and hope to make an impact and be an encouragment to others too.
    Thank you and take care.

    Hi Janet - I am new to Squidoo and I think that you have inspired me to give this a try. I have tried several things in the last few years that just didn't work for me. So I am hoping that I will be patient enough to give this a good chance. Thanks alot!
