Today was my telecommute day. I enjoy those days because one of the high points is when Eva wakes up. She always has a super smile for me when she sees me on those mornings. It is the best feeling. That smile is just such a joy. Eva and I played “chase” this afternoon. Here is a video I made of “chase”. She loves it.
Today I received a “Postie Pack” from IZEA! There was a yo-yo, finger puppet, pencil, set of magnets and an IZEA hat. I wore that hat most of the day. I then decided to step into BenSpark’s PhotoBooth and take a few shots. This one below ended up as one I decided to use as my new Avatar.
I had been thinking that I didn’t have enough self portraits for my new set of business cards. I have a set of Moo cards to order because I have a really cool event coming up in March.
Today we received a couple other packages. The first one was a second car seat for Eva. We needed a second one so that anyone else watching Eva could have a car seat to use. The other one was a Valentine’s Day gift for Allison and it was so tasty. I won a $70 credit from Dad-Blogs and ProFlowers. So I ordered a dozen roses that arrived yesterday and then a dozen hand-dipped Chocolate covered strawberries. Prepare to salivate. Photos below.
Today was a very cool day because I’m making some really great connections. First off there are all the great people from IZEA who are very excited about my recent post about the 10 best reasons to attend IZEAFest 2009. In the conversation in the comments Carri from IZEA got a great idea of doing a photo-a-day countdown. We talked about those construction paper countdown rings. Carri made it more Web 2.0 and decided to make an IZEAFest 2009 daily photo countdown. How cool.
I decided today to go and put myself in BenSpark’s PhotoBooth. What is BenSpark’s PhotoBooth? BenSpark’s Photobooth is something that I am going to do with my Xshot as often as I can. So if you see me at a conference then you have to step inside BenSpark’s PhotoBooth, it might be very beneficial for you. Oh man I am so excited for IZEAFest 2009.
I also rearranged my sidebars to include my full BenSpark’s PhotoBooth photoshoot on the left sidebar. Let me know what you think about how things look. I did notice that now that the tag cloud has been added I see that I have a bunch of posts that are set as uncategorized. I need to go through all my old posts and update them so that they are in proper categories and I’m trying to narrow them down to between 10 and 20 categories to make searching much easier. With over 3200 posts cleaning everything up is going to take some time. Lots of time but having everything cleaned up with an excerpt for all of them plus tags, proper categories and info in the All in One SEO Pack. I’ve been making sure to use that in every new post now. A great plug-in certainly a must have.
