Birthday Parties & Changes
Dear Blog,
There are lots of stories that I could share with you. Tales that might be told one day or perhaps not. Some of these are stories with purpose, passion and meaning and others are of no real significance.
It all depends on who we are speaking with and what sort of relation they have with the various players in these productions. Time and space play their role too.
Things that should be simple like a child's birthday party become more complex than necessary all because some adults act like asses. Sometimes I take pleasure in helping those asses hoist themselves upon their own petards.
Other changes are afoot and I feel a mixture of good anticipation and some mild anxiety. They may not come, these changes so I try not to spend too much time worrying and wondering about them.
Yet it is impossible to ignore them because their very nature requires action, thought and exploration. Fortunately it won't be long before I know whether they will become more than possibilities of things that could happen or the reality of what has happened.
Time will tell sooner rather than later.

What I Use For Email Marketing
For a long time I was hesitant to get involved with any sort of email marketing program. It didn't seem to be in sync with what I wanted to do and I didn't want my readers to feel like I was constantly selling to them.
Over time I started to reconsider my approach and decided that it didn't have to be an all or nothing proposition which is why you may have noticed more ads and or posts about affiliate programs.
Some of you have written me here or left comments at TheJackB asking me to provide more information about what tools and resources I like to use. In an upcoming post I will be glad to provide you with more specific details, but in the interim I thought I would share some information about Aweber (affiliate link).
Get Started Today For Only $1! - AWeber Communications I haven't used AWeber for very long at all but I can tell you that I find it to be exceptionally easy to use and am very pleased with the performance. Thus far I feel like it has provided an excellent return for a minimal amount of effort and investment.
Time will tell as to whether it continues to provide the sort of return that I need and want.

Changes
Change is in the air, I feel it. But even if I did not I would know it because it is happening around me, to me and in me.
There are words to be used and stories to be told about these changes, but not now. I lack perspective and am unwilling to begin the narrative here.
Maybe later, maybe elsewhere. Maybe someday.
That is enough maybes for me this May.
