Blogging for Daisy
Over the past few months I’ve been making a few pennies online and it’s a nice addition to our usually fairly tight budget. For the most part we live on one income so we don’t often splurge, but with my minor successes recently we’ve purchased an iPod Touch and an iPhone, both are very cool, although being connected constantly can have it’s downsides.
This month we’ve also enjoyed our first break away alone since Erin was born. We went to Peebles Hydro for two nights and really relaxed.
February will see our most exciting purchase though, after months of deliberation we decided to buy a puppy. We settled on a King Charles Cavalier Spaniel (I think that’s right!) and I set about looking for litters in Scotland. Well last week I found a litter just outside Glasgow that were five and a half weeks old. We drove through to see them and of course they were all adorable but Erin had her heart set on one that didn’t seem to want to leave her alone, we’ll be picking up Daisy on the 9th Feb when she’ll be eight weeks old and ready to leave her mum.
She’s already costing us a small fortune though, I’ve spent nearly £500 so far! I guess I better get back to blogging and earning some more money

If you’d like to start your own blog you can still join the mum blogger e-course free. I’ve got a few plans for 2010 and it may mean that this course will either close for a period of time, possibly forever so if you want in sign up now and pass the message on.
I've been blogging for four years and write about anything and everything that takes my fancy.
Above is me with my beloved Ernie in Port Aventura and left with our love child in Florida.

I’m SO excited! I can’t wait til you get her – it’s like puppy ownership without the poo…
Oh. Erm, of course I mean there isn’t that much poo really…
I’ll shut up now.
Oh wow, what a big comittment. I am so glad though that you have manged to get some goodies
EM – Nobody mentioned poo?!?!
The MadHouse – I know! It’s taken us over six months to decide, we don’t like to make hasty decisions
Just wanted to say that the mummy blogger e-course is fab, I never imagined there would be quite so much to know about blogging! Thanks for doing such an amazing job!

Thanks Catherine, all feedback is appreciated but especially when it’s good
I am really enjoying the mummy blogger e-course too! Your information is so clear and easy to understand. I am excited about doing more with my blog :0)
Your new puppy looks adorable congratulations and best wishes with your new little addition!!!
Thanks Michelle, very excited about picking daisy up now!
I’ve enjoyed the easy going blogging course also – thanks for all your hard work. I simply do not know how you do it! Plus posting as many posts!! I’m still finding it difficult to allocate time enough to make my blog work and look better though, and am not sufficiently tekkie to do some of the things easily, such as discovering how much traffic I have – is that through feedburner…and I seem to have subscribed to that but can’t work out how to get the widget thingy….perhaps I’d better read through the course notes again!
Good luck with Daisy – we had a cocker spaniel called Daisy! You will have such fun and love from her.
Hi Diney you could try re-reading the notes otherwise I find the help pages on individual sites quite helpful. Tracking your traffic does involve pasting some code into your blog’s HTML so you may want to get someone techie to do that bit
