| Me mowing my lawn July 7, 2008. I have since progressed to a riding tractor to mow my almost one acre of lawn. I have no photos of that.....yet. |
By now my regular blog followers have noticed that my blog is now monetized. Yes, ads are on my blog!
Me, one who hates ads has succumbed to the almighty dollar.
Well, one thing I have to say is that Google (the company behind Blogger.com) has done a nice job of placing the ads. Also, the ads are appropriate for my blog, the senior citizen that I am. Good job Blogger!
Now, how much money am I making? Would you be surprised to know that I'm not going to buy that condo in Palm Springs anytime soon? It took me three days to earn $1.07! At this rate I'll be long into my next life before I earn any signifiant money. Oh well, I was always curious how many people read my blog. Now I have an idea. I'm just one grain of sand on the world wide beach of bloggers.
As the logo says to the right of this post:
"Life Is A Long Lesson In Humility"
Now if you'll excuse me, I have a lawn to mow. I save sixty dollars every time I mow my own lawn*.
*I can't mow my lawn in very hot and humid weather. I pay my local landscaper Jose Sierra $60 to mow my lawn, which I have mowed once a week. This summer has been particularly brutal with the hot and humid weather. Today the temperature is 72 degrees F and although the humidity is still high (97%) I can manage to mow my lawn myself. I have a very cool John Deere zero degree turning riding mower. An added bonus is I really look butch when I mow my lawn. Always a plus!
