$381 from AC for one article?

So, as all of you know I write for Associated Content. Well I wrote an article on the Lucky 13 Truck Stop I submitted it on Saturday and then today while online I got an email from AC for an offer on the article. I checked my account and the offer was for $381....omg! I liked to have fell out of my seat here at work! I waited and waited thinking that it was all a big mistake. After considering how well written the article was, that it was a "travel" article, and that there was not another thing about it on the whole internet, I began to believe that it might not be a mistake! Well I checked my account balance and the offer was pending and had been comfirmed but not yet sent. Well here it is 10 hours later and I just got an email from AC stating that there was an offer on that same article....you know what that means write? ....yep they took the $381 back and offered me $3.81 for the article. Well it was nice while it lasted!

Adsense

Ok. So I have decided to go with Adsense by Google on my blog. I will see how it works out. I just started it a few minutes ago and already have started earning a few cents. Adsense allows you to share your site for advertising and googles pays you by impressions and clicks. There are 1000's of adds to choose from they range from a few cents up to $258 (this highest I have seen so far). I am going to try it and see how it works for me. Google pays you for referrals and the company will aslo pay you. Cause of pay varies from just the "clicker" just looking at the site advertised, filling out a form with lead info, to making a purchase. I actually found some of the ads to be beneficial for my readers. I tried to pick most of them that were free games and ring tones! Something that you don't have to sign up for or purchase. (The company then makes money cause you visited their site and saw their ads). As I go along I will be sure to keep you updated on how well it works. IF YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS OR COMMENTS ABOUT Adsense please feel free to leave them here for others to read! *** If you are interested in putting Adsense on your site to earn money you can get their easily by clicking the grey box to the right! ~~~~>

Untouchable

I seen a poetry topic today titled Untouchable . I set and pondered for a moment and begin to write. How I ended up with such a poem I'm not sure but I realized I was starting to tear up while writing it. If something were to happen to my husband I'm not sure what I would do, as you can tell from Untouchable .

What Would You Do If You Had To Assess a Broken Arm

Ok, forgive me but as a 9-1-1 dispatcher I felt I had to post How To Properly Assess A Broken Arm. You would be amazed at how many people call 9-1-1 when dealing with a broken arm, or any bone for that matter, and have done some crazy things. I have had people call and, while telling them not to splint any injuries, tell me that they have already tied their shirt around the break or have already stuck the arm in ice. OMG! Don't do it! You can end up making things so much worse then they are.

Would I Send My Child Off To War?

I'm really not one to get into politics. While I am not against or for the war, I do find it a touchy subject. My only suggestion would be to pull our troops out and blow the whole damn place up but I know that wouldn't be the answer. To many other innocent people would die. See....that's why I don't get into it! I was asked Would I Send My Child Off To War? Thats what inspired me to write the article Would I Send My Child Off To War? I encourage everyone to read the article and post ANY COMMENTS to the article or this post! I am very interested to see what people think. I look forward to reading your comments!

I Will Not Cry Tonight

Ha...It's hard for me to look back at some of my high school poems, love letters and all the other "But I love him" stuff. I remember being in middle school and high school and as long as you were 'seeing' someone one you were considered to be dating and then if you were together for more than 2 weeks you were in love....and OMG- think back...how many people were you going to marry? LMAO! I so remember like 5 guys that I was so going to marry! Looking back now it's hard to see how I could even kiss them much less marry them! It's so funny when I think back about the guys I dated. Well let me re-phrase that, seeing them. When I was young I would slip up and say something about who was dating who, or who I was dating and my dad would always say..." How are you dating them? ooohhh that's my boyfriend and we talk on the phone, but we ain't never went no where....Hmm looks to me like your talking".

He used to get such a kick out of spying on me while I was on the phone! No matter how bad I hated it then, I can't help but laugh when I think about it now!

Well here is one of those poems that I was talking about. Just thought that I would share it! It sounds like a married couple, seriously in love, hard to believe that I was only 15 and had only be with the guy for about 4 months!

My Life as a 9-1-1 dispatcher!

As most of your know I am a 9-1-1 dispatcher and I love it. I started out being a volunteer firefighter. While having doing training at the EOC one night I was given a tour of the 9-1-1 dispatch center. I got to sit in with one of my fellow firefighters who was already working as a dispatcher. From that point on I knew I wanted to dispatch. It was amazing. While its not really what it looks like on TV it's still a very interesting job. I decided to write my article Becoming a 9-1-1 dispatcher. I was quite surprised to see how many people was interested in the topic. I am currently working on a piece titled How To Become a 9-1-1 dispatcher. I will post if for you guys as soon as its ready!

Final Goodbyes

Not a day goes by that I don't think of my brother Jason Nowling. He was killed in a horrible motorcycle crash in the early morning hours of July 18, 2002. Losing him was very hard for me and I used writing to help cope with his loss. I found it easier to write what I felt then to speak it. I would have to say that Final Goodbyes is the best poem I have written. I'm not sure if its just because it's a good piece or because it means so much to me. There are times when I pick it up, read it and begin to cry. Its been 5 years but the pain feels like it happened yesterday but the way I miss him, feels like 100 years since I saw him last. I still remember the very last time I saw him. It was around 5pm on Sunday, July 14th, his daughter and I were about to gome home after spending the weekend with him. One of his friends came over and they left to go to town. The last time I saw my brother he was pulling out of the yard in a Red VW Jetta. Never would I have expected it to be the last time. Never given the chance to say our Final Goodbyes.
