This has not been a good week for my blogging efforts. Again, I lost my motivation and didn't blog every day.
On Sunday I decided not to do a review.  Well, ok, it got to be 10 pm and I realized then that I hadn't written a post.
Come Monday I decided to change my all business Monday to just posting each Monday about a different thing that I do online to earn money and do away with the linky.  I haven't had anyone linking up anyway.  That post did get me 3 referrals, which is what I need if I am going to start earning what I need to get vehicles running and such.

I will be continuing with this weekly linky and appreciate every week those of you who take the time to link up your own writing.  I will also keep the frugal Friday link up, and of course I have my ongoing giveaways linky page as well.

Actually, I'm a woman and I can change my mind, it's my right isn't it?    I am going to keep the Super Sunday Reviews linky, but instead of writing a review of my own within that post, it will just be the announcement to come in and share your reviews of the past week.
I plan to do my reviews on Tuesday and Saturday's, which I then will link up on Sunday's myself.
That seems better to me as I'm not sure that the companies that I am reviewing for really appreciate me having Super Sunday Reviews in my title and then what I am reviewing for them.

So with all that said, please share away this week!

Good Thursday to all!  How has your week been?  How is the weather in your part of the country?
It's not terribly bad in Kansas.  We've had some bitter cold windy days and there is just a bit of snow on the ground.  I'm reading all over the internet about those of you that are having massive snow.
My week has been hectic.  Nothing new about that, just different stresses this week.

This week I would like to address how you handle PR emails that come to your inbox.  I know over the years I've signed up at several different websites for my blogging.  I just updated my info at 2 of those recently--then dummy me didn't make note of what the websites even were!
I've not kept up with sverve, tomoson, etc where you apply for blog posts.

I consistently am still getting emails from PR companies asking me to post this or that.  A good portion of those offer no compensation.  In the beginning, if it was something that related to the things that I post about on a regular basis, I would try to get it posted.  Anymore I mostly just delete the emails.   Actually I've been deleting those for a long time now.
I don't feel that I should be expected to post without compensation or a product sent to me.
A few times I've braved up and replied that I would love to post it, but would need compensation.
A few times I've gotten a reply "sorry, but we are unable to compensate at this time", but a few times now the reply has been that they are happy to compensate me.
I don't ask near what I read that a lot of bloggers are receiving as far as compensation.

Do you also feel that your time is worth either pay or a product in return for a post?

I need help still.  I can not, for the life of me, get my coding right for my buttons in the side bar.  The space keeps coming up blank where you are supposed to be able to paste the code to add it to your blog.
I also have some redesigning to do as well as removing of pages and side bar items that are no longer needed.

I hope you've had a good writing week.  I look forward to what you share this week.
