This and That Stuff

by Kay~Kacey on 8/30/2008

My freshman college boy is coming home for the Labor Day weekend. Don’t warn him. I’m going to be grilling him asking lots of questions about dorm life, classes, roommates and any and everything else I can think of. I might even do his laundry 😉 I miss his face.

off to college

Other stuff:

Some of you asked about earning money from your blogs. Did I mention I wrote an article about adding BlogHer ads to your blog? The article on advertising on your blog is over at Dandelionblog. Hop over there and read it if you’re thinking of starting to monetize your blog. I’m also hoping to get a series of articles up over there about Twitter. I so just did not GET twitter when I first started with it. I’m going to try and explain it so more of you will get addicted to twitter. try out Twitter.

In other news, I grounded two of my boys by text message last night. :mad2: And one of their roommates. What do you think the chances are that grounding worked?? :rofl: :rofl: Ah, well, I amused myself sending the text message anyway.

Last up on the this and that stuff. Don’t forget to send in your photos for the August photo of the month contest. More info at the link. Do it now, before you forget. Photo and Caption. This month theme is best caption for a photo. And I’m just saying…you’ll be sorry if you don’t participate this month, ’cause, well…there isn’t a lot of competition right now. :secret: But don’t tell!! It will wreck my odds of winning! 😉

Enjoy your holiday weekend, if indeed you live where it is a holiday weekend. Drive safely. Have fun.

Congrats! You both survived that first week or so. My son is supposed to come home today, and he had better sit down and have dinner with me. I love the photo! You both look quite happy!

Love this photo!

Thanks for the advertising info, too. Dunno about it yet. Oh, wow. Here comes the sun.

Have fun! (like I even have to suggest that).

Please do write the Twitter article. I am one of those who is having a hard time understanding twitter. I’m not a digital native but so wanna be.

You are so lucky! Your son is away at college and you still get to visit him, by necessity, every month! What more could a mama ask for???
