Here I am @ 1am

Here I am awake at 1:00 in the morning. My entire family is asleep. This is the only time I get to myself. Usually kids are running crazy, trying to destroy the house.

So here I am- Dora’s still on in the background. “Backpack, backpack” how those songs stick with me. But Adisyn loves it..

Drinking coffee, trying to organize my files, which isn’t a pretty site. Adam is always telling me I’m such a pack-rat. It’s true, I admit it. I am such a sucker for keeping stuff, and somehow managing to get more stuff on top of that. I don’t know why-  I just do.

I wish I had some organizing furniture I really do. It would make my life so much easier. Since I live in an apartment though, space is very limited. I have a 3 bedroom, and every room and closet is crammed with stuff. Not like THROWN in there, it’s stacked neatly, but still.

I did a review for CSN stores last year, and thought I was going to be reviewing a filing cabinet (a rotating one) when what I really got what was an insert for someone who already has one..

ugh!

I am really hoping to gain some more followers and get people interested in my blog again. People were loving me last year, but when my laptop tore up.. it wrecked that.

But I’m back and offering guest posts for someone who would like to post a craft tutorial or something to the sort. It can already be posted somewhere else, as long as it’s a tutorial..

I am going to be receiving a bunch of products this week and could use some comment love when it comes to these giveaways,

I’ve noticed that since I have been trying to catch up on reviews, I haven’t been able to update much on life and my kids.

Aidan has been in headstart, but it seems like he is out of school more than he is in. Where he was premature, he catches stuff so easily..

So needless-to-say, Adi’s been sick too. He catches it there, and then brings it back to her. I really need to schedule flu shots this week.

Adisyn is getting so big and so smart. It amazes me what a 2 year old can learn. She tries to count. She gets some of them right. I’m going to start working with her more on stuff. Headstart wants her to start in Feb.

I wrecked my trailblazer. It was in town, and I wasn’t going that fast, but my blazer is still crunched up in the front. We had just paid it off. We went to a buy here pay here lot in Bowling Green and got it. We paid $4000 for it, and with the damages from the wreck the insurance place settled for $2600. So all in all, I didn’t pay that much for it, and I’m still driving it.

We hooked a tow strap to the bumper and pulled it away from the tires. If I can remember, I’ll post the police report on here tomorrow. I have so much to get done though, so I don’t know if I’ll be able to get to it. Laundry is  a must, even though I hate the laundry mat.

We had a rental car for a week. We got a Chevy HHR. Have you seen one?

32/mpg… is that awesome or what? I loved it and wished I could’ve had one. It drives so smooth, and was big enough to accommodate my SUV neediness.

But..I feel the caffeine starting to wear off, and I still have to clean up my mess.. so I’ll get back at you guys tomorrow..

Sponsored Tweets: Make Money on Twitter

You’ve all heard the sayings that you can make money off twitter. I searched and searched..

I came up with a bunch of websites wanting me to pay THEM to HELP me earn money. I don’t think so. I’m pretty sure they were all scams.

But YOU can earn money off twitter. Your not going to be a twitter millionaire or anything, but you will earn some dollars and change in your pocket. It adds up..

So,

if you already own a twitter account..

Go to sponsored tweets and sign up. You get paid based on how many twitter followers you have.

I have 300 and something, and I get paid usually .37 a tweet. I just transferred $3.17 into my account.

I’m not saying your gonna make big money, but it’s better than trying all those scams, and it only takes seconds of your time. Sponsored tweets has an amazing interface that connects with your twitter account, and automatically updates your twitter account with the tweet you just made. So it’s not copy and paste, and leave you in the dark. It’s just easy money for a very short amount of time.

Product Review/Giveaway- KAMsnaps

{Double Click Post so you can enter giveaway w/ rafflecopter}
As a crafter, I hated sewing velcro on every single thing I wanted to attach together. I mean, yes- it IS durable and DOES hold it together, but wouldn’t it be much easier if you could use SNAPS? The velcro doesn’t last for very long, maybe 6m-1 year at the most. Hairs and fibers get stuck in the velcro.
When you’re a crafter, and your making products you want to sell- you wouldn’t want them to have something to suggest inadequacy on your part. You’re only going to want the best, whether it be the fabric- or it’s closure.
So would that be KAMSNAPS?
Most definitely.
When using KAMSNAPS, you get the snaps and the presser (& tools to fix your presser).

• A set of Pliers for plastic snaps. Set comes with pliers, small screw driver, awl (the pokey thing), 4 cap dies (the 3 black things) to fit a variety of plastic snap sizes, including size 14, 16, 20, and star, and 2 top metal rods
• Size 20 snap sets. You can order 2 sets of 100 each (200 sets total) for 25% off regular price if you order them with your pliers. I got the lime green snaps.
• Free shipping over $28.

By the time I got the KAMSnaps, my son and daughter were already in pull ups, so I just decided to Make a bunch of make-up bags and such with these snaps as holders.
You can see the color chart below..


A close up of the snap


How they go together,,

At first- I kept squeezing the pliers too hard on the snaps and it was bending the prongs. I had to use just enough strength to put it through, but yet not enough to damage the snap. I like these. I definitely loved using these as closures for whatever I am making at the time. They bring out the cuteness in a fabric. You can use same color, or contrasting color snaps to get a different effect.
I have since used KamSnaps for many different projects, and think that most crafters will switch once they hear about these. They are plastic, about the size of a dime, and very easy to use. It beats having to sew velcro on to make something stay shut.
Would I recommend these to you?
Yes, I would.
