I am so out of the loop! I was checking out SheKnows this morning (my new favorite website) and saw that J-Lo had twins with Marc Anthony, I have to admit, I didn’t even know she was preggo! I’ve always liked her!

Anyway, I have been spending a lot of time at the pregnancy section of SheKnows and loving it, the main picture today is about the pregnancy brain, that it is TRUE about baby turning your brain to mush! I knew it! I have been so spacey lately!

This pregnancy thing is not going very easy, I have been sick and tired and sick of being sick and tired! And the cravings, they are BAD!

Pay per Post has recently introduced IZEARanks.com, a new and improved ranking and stats site. While it does not show as many details as feedburner or google analytics, it ranks your blog amongst all the other blogs in the system traffic wise.

I have had it tracking my second blog, Caffeine Overload for a while now and it has done amazing, with a rank of only 53 (weekly average) it is awesome to know that that blog is 53′rd out of all the other blogs! See the screen shot for details. That blog has done well every since the 3rd day, it is a hit! While it is not monetized in any way yet, I will be offering up advertising in banners and 125×125 buton ads once the design is finished.

They are giving away 1,000 every week in feb to the blog with the number 1 RR, I am not close enough to get that though! :-( The options are simple, it is definitely easy to use. I like that you can choose what shows; pageviews and visitors or just your RealRank. This blog is not doing as well, it’s real rank is only at 230 or so right now. :-( Once I finish the redesigns and get the network started I will have some major advertising happening.

Joseph and I have been talking about taking a vacation sometime before the baby comes, while I would love to go someplace exotic, like the dialaflight’s offer for flights to New Zealand or Thailand even. I would love to visit the fertility center there, I hear it is beautiful and a little funny. (It is said to have a large statue of a male part).

Unfortunately, because we are not made of money, we will end up going a few hours over to St. Augustine FL, or maybe the other side and visit the theme park in Orlando. I don’t know which yet, or even when, but I think a weekend away would be fun.

In a constant effort to grow my sites and income, I am checking out Buzzfusenow. It seems pretty cool, similar to Digg from what I can tell, you can submit your posts, pictures, songs, etc and promote them to the front page to reach a larger audience. I am submitting my post before this on the horrible service at startLogic to try to get more people informed.

You can comment and vote on submissions, as well as the extra cool feature of making a questionnaire for the item you submitted to get detailed feedback on the subjects you want. I will try that feature when I finish the redesign of the sites to see what people think. I see it has the ability to get paid, but I need to research that more before I review that part! Check it out and feel free to post any tips and shortcuts in the comments! I am always looking for ways to maximize results!

Whew… I am not used to having other people here 24/7! Not that it is bad or anything, but it is a change in scenery. As soon as they get the W2 they will file taxes and then it will be about 4 weeks before they get the check. I am wondering though if they should get the cash advance tax return thing that the tax places offer, instead of waiting 4 weeks, get it in like a week. But that would be silly, that takes like 300 dollars away with fees.

Things will get settled and les uncomfortable over the next week or so, it is still new. And they should do the slow return, so they have all the money to try to get a decent place that they can afford this time!
