Well, the time has come for me to start a blog I guess. I do a lot of product reviews on Amazon, as well as book reviews on Amazon and Goodreads. I also do some mystery shopping. Since I became unable to work due to medical issues, I've been searching for something to do in all my down time. I started reviewing on Goodreads, just as a hobby. Then I signed up with Houseparty and started reviewing more products. Today I review for many companies, and all sorts of products. My pugs love when I can review something for them!
Anyway, please give me suggestions and pointers if you feel like it. I'm hoping people aren't really mean, but I do take constructive criticism, anything that will help me is great! So, a little about me. I'm a disabled RN. I have chronic migraines, Fibromyalgia and possible MS. So, I'm almost always home. We moved into my parent's unfinished basement after I got sick, and have been here ever since. Its really impossible to afford a decent place and my meds, so here we will stay until something changes.
I rely on my husband Skip for everything really. Not sure where I would be without him. The other thing that keeps me going are our two pugs, Vinnie and Rosie. I give them the most credit because through the depression and the bad thoughts, they always got me up to feed and take care of them. They tried licking away my tears on bad days, and just snuggle with me on days I'm stuck in bed in pain... they are my little companions, and I don't think I'd still be alive without them.
Thats enough of the sad stuff. Now that I've taught myself to crochet, teaching myself to knit, learned to make cards and papercraft, and started reviewing products I'm really pretty busy. Days go much faster when there is something I enjoy that I can do! I think the crafts and reviews are kind of like therapy. Seeing my best friend at least a couple times a month helps to!
So, what will this blog be about? Honestly, that can change from day to day, but i'm hoping to get this going as a product review blog. Another place to give my opinion about all sorts of things. I'm hoping that by starting this is will be another outlet, another way to connect with people since I'm usually home.
I hope anyone who comes here enjoys their time here! Thanks for the support!
