Amore, a fellow mommy and my host for this blog has sent me an email reminder that mitchteryosa.com is soon to expire on 18th of October, and if I want to renew it with Yanihosting! Wow! Has it been a year already?

Anyway, it was actually Feng who had recommended Amore about this whole blog hosting thingy. I didn’t have a second thought. For $30, I’d have my own blog, on my chosen domain name. I messaged her and she immediately replied. Luckily, I had kept an amount of $30 in my PayPal. That was, if I’m not mistaken, was part of my first batch of blog earnings hehe!

I didn’t realize that was almost a year ago already! Of course, I am definitely renewing it with Yanihosting. Never had a problem with it, well, petty ones but Amore has always been helpful to us.

Most of my friends ask me, why do they see me online on wee hours and I would always have a ready answer for that “I grab opps during these wee hours” then comes the explanation of what opps are, and how blogging is connected to my “staying up late at night”.

Another question to follow is “But your husband sends you money right?”

“Yes, monthly without fail, but that only doesn’t mean that I just have to depend on his salary, I also have my personal needs plus the “fact” that I am staying in my parents’ house”.

My husband is a good provider, means, he knows his responsibilities when it comes to this matter and always been ready to lend a helping hand with my extended family. That is why I don’t want to take advantage that just because he sends me his earnings every month, all I have to do is wait and spend whenever I want. Call me a wife with pride but this is just how I want it to be.

Most of my blog earnings go to my electricity and other bills. In our house, bills are on me. Today, I spent more than 5k already from my blog earnings:

…. This blog’s PR2 went down to PR0. Kaput! Just like that ahuhuhuhu! I guess I spoke too soon that this blog stayed at PR2. What have I done Mr. G? Look at this….

So I guess, bloglife has also its roller coaster episodes huh? Hahaha!

....................................................................................................................

“Hurray!” said by Bloggers who got their blogs ranked from PR1 or more.

“Da*n!” said by Bloggers who lost their blog ranks.

Today… I say “hurray!” for having this blog’s PR stayed at 2.

When Silence Speaks still has a PR. Thank goodness! I really wished for this! Aside from this, my other 2 blogs gave me enough reason to smile today.

As far as I remember, I have submitted my blog to Ratified ages ago. Few minutes ago, while I was checking my Feedjit, I noticed a link that reads:

Las Piñas, Rizal arrived from ratified.org on “When Silence Speaks | Supports Philippine Tourism“

That means somebody has found this blog through Ratified. I followed the link and saw this info:
