I've already spent a good chunk of the morning working on my diabetic blog. There are a lot of behind the scenes things I do to get it noticed.
I ping it to blog search engines when I make a new post. I also add it to bookmark sites. Before I write a new article I use a keyword tool to try and pick keywords that have the less competition. Today I tried looking at tags on top posts on the Google page I was aiming for. I used some of those. So that is a little experiment to see how that might work.
Determination is driving me to make that blog a thriving business.
It's so cold here today. I think it was 8 when I looked this morning. I've got the heat turned down to save money. The windows in this old house are not very energy efficient. I seem to be the only one that cares about that. I will try to think warm thoughts.
Yesterday, my husband and I went to get mineral for the cattle. I did get lunch and grocery shopping at Sam's out of the deal. I never dreamed what a money saver that place can be. I've resisted buying in bulk for two people mainly because I have very little storage space. However, the savings is going to far outweigh that inconvenience.
I thought about going to a movie today. I want to go see Clint Eastwood in Gran Torino, but it's their dinner theater presentation today. I would really feel like a sore thumb sticking out there amongst the couples. Our theater serves dinner right before one selected movie each week. It's really a popular deal here. I've never gone though because I usually go to movies alone.
My husband is off helping his dad today. He won't even be here for lunch. No big deal, I guess. I guess he thinks we were together enough yesterday.
Tomorrow I go back to the doctor for get my cholesterol checked. It's been six weeks since I started on some medicine for it and now it's time to see how it is working.
I've been reading a book about giving myself a makeover. I think maybe I need to change the shade of my lipstick and think about tweaking my hair color. Maybe I should wear a little more makeup. The book is about looking young as you get older. It doesn't take much arm twisting to get me to shop for lipstick.
How will you entertain yourself today?
