Saying Goodbye...I have to...

DEAR BLOG FRIENDS,
For now, I am having to say good-bye. I'll try to explain, but knowing me,it will be as clear as muddy water.

I wish,wish ,wish that I had time to blog, but I am on a fixed income , and have to write things that will pay  me money. Since March 2010, I have earned only $1.72 on my blog. I had hoped I could earn from this blog in time, and make friends,too. [If you google Jackie D. Kimball,you'll see what I'm up to  in my writing.]

If  blogging was all the writing  I did, and it was just a fun pastime,You guys would SO Be worth it. What a great group of gals( and you ,old geezer!) I found.  The truth is, I just don't have time to visit my blog friends. I LOVE BOGGING AND VISITING BLOGS! I was spending hours just visiting my blog friends, and only wrote a few things for adsense sites in 5 weeks. Well, it caught up with me, and I made just a few cents  writing on my adsenses revenue sites in January! I tried to make a rotation, visiting about 10 of you a day, but I didn't want to just stop by, and not  read/make a comment. I was taking hours. (You all know it does!lol!!!!)

If I am ever going to be a success at this extra income, I have to devote more time to sites I know I can monetize on, such as hubpages and infobarrel.  The thing is, you are expected to visit and comment on those articles, too. It is very time consuming. I had gotten to the point that I was on the computer all day. That is not what being newly retired is supposed to be,is it?Grinning.......

I just can't keep up. Something had to go.(So Twin, I'm gonna try to get busy, and see you there.:>)
I am going to keep my blog open, I will be reading on your blogs from time,to time maybe even comment. Who knows, maybe someday, I'll get the hang of it and be able to handle the money sites , and the fun sites. AS I SAID>>>YOU GUYS ARE THE  BEST!

So,sadly...at least for now.....I'm saying goodbye.


AS always,thanks for dropping by!~~~~Jackie~~~

I THINK I Was As Clear As Muddy Water......?????

Hmmmm, I think I was as clear as muddy water in my last post!It's all clear in my mind...I think!I was wondering what to write about and asked did any of you have ideas. I think some of you thought I meant blog writing.No,not blog writing.The writing block I am talking about is about needing to write new articles  and get paid by goooooogle.

I write articles on hubpages,infobarrel,msnbc newsvine,snipsly,infopirate,and more. It is monetized so that I get a percent from click throughs on google adds.

There,maybe I am making sense now. Did I? If not,just mumble ,"Lord help her !" Some of you write articles on revenue sites,don't you?Peg?Twin?

Problem is.....and I can't understand it myself,I can't seem to get back in the swing of things . I spent time in AL with my daughter ,as she had major surgery, Then came Thanksgiving,holiday parties galore, and Christmas. When I DO have time to write,I end up blog hopping to check on who is doing what.(So addictive!).So, I have made up my mind. For the next few days, I am going to write,even if it's gibberish and doesn't get published!Think I'll settle in at hubpages for a few days,then infobarrel.

AS always,thanks for dropping by!~~~~Jackie~~~

I got nuttin'

Proof here that I still exist! I got nuttin'.................but I guess no news is good news! Oh, I did the same ole-same ole stuff. I hit Wal*Mart a few times, went to church everytime the doors were open so to speak, and did the usual housework.


All of my close friends live too far, or work all day, so I watch too much TV!I have 8 Christian Stations on DISH network, so there is always something to watch.of course, I get my "inspiration but no money to do it fix.....(Love me some HGTV ) Ha!




Not only have I got nuttin........I am having a sort of writer's block on my adsense revenue writing. every time I think of something I can write about, an SEO indicates that that topic is saturated...sigh...


So....if you adsense writers want to give me a leg up, where do you think we are trending? I mean, the holiday market is over. Should we start on spring  topics, or since it is also saturated, is that NOT the way to go? I haven't done any sales articles as of yet.I hear some that do have just marginal success, but at least there is not a significant amount of research required. Sigh...I dunno.I guesss I could do some back linking, but I'm just blah about it. I sure could use a google payout!

AS always,thanks for dropping by!~~~~Jackie~~~

No Physical Presence

UPDATE to the following post: Wednesday night---I got an e-mail from my friend Mary Ellen in Australlia. She tried to call me ,but I was at church. She is fine. Her area is not yet affected, but both she and her husband 's jobs are closed until further notice.

I am reminded today, as I wait to hear from my dear friend Mary Ellen in Australia, of how little physical presence has to do with loving someone. Mary Ellen is my daughter's age. I have never met my dear pen pal (of about a decade)physically, but I just love her to pieces!

Mary Ellen lives in a area that is now being devastated by epic flooding.I am worried. My stomach is in knots. I want to know that she is okay, and in no danger.I read about the increasing flooding today,now in her city, and shot her an e-mail insisting that she let me know if she and her husband are okay.So now....I wait.

Why I am I so knotted up about a person I have never physically met? How can you care about someone you have written and talked on the phone with ,yet never met? The answer is....WE HAVE MET....in spirit. WE have commonalities.WE are both Christians.We are both teachers, and have stories we could tell,believe me! We both struggle with weight. I love her Aussie accent,and she loves my southern drawl.I don't have to say to anyone that she does exist. I have her letters..(and several gifts.......)I talk to her, so no one can convince me that there is no little aussie girl who is dear to me.

She is not my daughter, but there is a part of me that for some strange reason I can't explain,feels that we are related. We both express heartfelt wishes to meet someday. I'm the old lady, so she needs to come to the states...grinning...She will come to me.If I ever hear she is coming I would do every thing I could to make her trip inviting.I think she would instantly feel at home.

Which brings me to my point.Thinking about Mary Ellen led way to thinking about the Lord. I love my Lord with all of my heart. Have I ever seen him? No. I FEEL Him in my spirit. I don't have to see or touch Him to know that He exists.I have his letters.That is how we really got aquainted!

He loves me.WE are related. I am His child.We talk all the time. Therefore,no one can tell me that there is no Lord Jesus making ready for me to come home!I don't have to physically see and touch Him to believe, and long for the day I see Him.
In the twinkling of an eye! Think of that! But I will GO TO HIM.....and I will be home!

Blessed is he who has not seen, yet has believed!

Y'all have a great week!
Jackie/Louisiana Bayou Lady

P.S. I got my toenail cut off yesterday after a seven week infection that would not heal,even after 20 days of antibiotics.(Because of my lymph systemm disorder..)Hopefully It will heal now.Say a little prayer for me, and a big one for Mary Ellen!
