Who are We?
Ok so I'm gonna redo this and see if it'll help any.
Well I'm not much of writer so I'm just not sure how to go about this. Quite honestly I decided to try this for the money, let's face it, isn't that why everyone starts? I know there's some who'll say "oh no not me", but that's baloney.
Any way, I'll make another attempt and see if it'll do any good. I just have to get the brain to focus long enough in order to put it in writing. :)
I've actually been on here for a year now and haven't managed to make a dime. So I'm not gonna call it my first any more cause that's so common and when people see it's your first, they tend to ignore it.
Don't get me wrong I have made money via the internet in the past year just not from squidoo and it is my own fault simply because I did ignore it for awhile, got discouraged and went elsewhere. Now I'd like to give it an honest to goodness try and see if I can actually do it.

Learning how to make a better lens
I've learned a lot from these people on how to improve your lens
I found fefe's lens about getting noticed to be very helpful. And I read bdkz's lens about Tips From A Giant Squid Organzier both these len's have been extremely helpful too.
At least I'm not just banging my head against a wall now. ;)
My newest favorite 2 gods or genius or whatever you want to call them is one thefluffanutta, this guy's a genius!! :) I wouldn't have even known there was a chat room here if it wasn't for following him on twitter. And the second one is Captain Squid These two guys are awesome, follow them, favorite them, read their articles and learn from them!
My Own Places
just a few of the blogs I've done and my webpage
So I've done some updating on my own website if you'd like to check it out.
- Mollys Place
- This is my web page that I did. If you're gonna critique it, be kind. It's my first attempt. Every thing on there is free to join. I made it originally because finding work at home jobs or survey companies good for Canadians is hard some times.
- Money On The Internet
- Just another attempt at another site. The games page really isn't games any more but places for Contests and searches you can get paid for.
- Hello From Niagara Falls
- This is one of my blogs. Tells you a bit about me and movies I like.
- The Wonderful World of Pets
- I have a dog, he's just a mixed nothing fancy but he's cute. And on this one you can find other places I can be found as well.
Next Step
trying to decide what to put here
When I first started this kind of stuff, it was simply to make some extra money and to pretty much see if I could do it. Now tho, I'm doing it to pay for the dentist.Altho Canada has great health coverage, it doesn't extend to the dentist or the optometrist. That has to come out of pocket unless you have coverage thru your job, which I don't. So here I sit, trying to decide what would be interesting enough to put in this lens to make people want to read it.
I live in Niagara Falls Ontario and I have 2 grown daughters, which I raised on my own. As a matter of fact my youngest daughter turns 21 next week and my older one will be 25 in October. Being born in March, I am a pisces so remember we are a sensitive lot.
So recently I've had my computer die on me, now I have to use my daughter's. Which means, I've lost everything, no I made the fatale mistake you should never never make with a computer :( I didn't back anything up!!!!!!! So I have to start from scratch, I even lost all my favorites!! :( And THAT is what sucks the most!
I've always had Hewlett Packard computers but I think I might need to change that since I'm in need of a new computer every 2 years or so. So what's everyone's opinion on computers? Stick with HP? Go with Acer? Acer is what my daughter has and it seems to have lasted longer then any of mine has. Sony? Toshiba? Apple?
Favorite Computers
which computer would you suggest?
So which computer do you like and why? If it's "other" leave me a note in the guestbook and let me know why you've choosen the one you have please. And would you go with laptop or desktop?
Computers
can't decide, laptop or desktop
I like the ease of being able to take a laptop with me with wherever I want to go but then again there's a few downfalls to it as well such as the fan is on the bottom and to me doesn't keep it cool enough but then a desktop you can't take anywhere with you, not easily that is ;)

Who's your favorite artist?
what do you search for on amazon?
Personally I love the 18th century stuff. One of my fav writers is Victoria Holt. One of my favorite singers is Dean Martin, tied with Rod Stewart.
And of course there's always jewelry, what woman doesn't like a nice piece of jewelry. :)
The Magic Bullet
making life a little easier
Magic Bullet Express 17-Piece High-Speed Blender Mixing System
Amazon Price: $49.99 (as of 11/18/2008)![]()
I've recently did a "life overhaul" for myself and have changed to eating healthy. The Bullet makes my protein shakes or smoothies to a perfection with ease and the clean up is alot shorter too. And since I don't have a lot of counter space it also doesn't clutter up everything. Usually in the mornings I don't have a lot of time to be lugging out a big bulky blender and then trying to clean the mess up afterward, the bullet is so tiny and easy to clean up afterward that I don't have to worry about setting everything up the night before.
Bye bye microwaves
.....helloooooo flavour!
Oster 5712 Electronic 2-Tier 6.1-Quart Food Steamer
Amazon Price: $24.99 (as of 11/18/2008)![]()
After getting my steamer, I've basically said good bye to the microwave! It may take a few minutes longer with steaming but the taste is sooooo much better then nuking it. And I can prepare our entire meal all at once. Less clean up afterward too. This is definitely something that's worth the money!

Picksed up some tips here. already knew about fluffanutta but not the other guy.
Did you know that a lense pointing to a blog is very useful for the blog because SQuidoo has a high ranking on google and so you have an inboubnd link from a high ranking site. So even if the Squidoo is not making you money it can have other uses.
