My heart just sank! I was clicking around on PayPerPost to catch up on all the latest site changes and whatnot and there on the top of the page shone the golden PayPerPost chalice. Today’s $1,000 opp was THERE, begging me to click as quickly as my oddly small hands could. I clicked, and clicked, and clicked, thinking, “I never get these on time. I’ll get that dreaded red line of death telling me it’s taken.” But I was WRONG!!! This is the message I was greeted with: “Congratulations! You are the first person to grab the 1K Opp for 1K Tuesdays.”
I can’t even think straight right now as all these thoughts of messing up the post somehow are running through the back of my mind. I’m so thankful to have this blog advertising to bring in that little extra cash when I need it, and now is definitely one of those times. I’ve lost so many hours at work lately, it’s terrible. Add to that the cost of towing my car home and buying two new tires when I wasn’t expecting it, and I’m spent. I’m broke. I’m not even college student broke. It’s beyond that now. I’m searching for ways to pay for my summer semester, all the new things we have to buy for the apartment when our roommate moves out, and everything for banquet next month. Maybe PayPerPost has my answer!
Apparently, this week’s 1K Tuesday sponsor is Zookoda which upon further inspection looks to me like the fabulous email marketing service I’ve been searching for! Since moving my blog here, I’ve had trouble keeping my friends updated, but with Zookoda, I can send them summaries of all my latest blog posts to their email for FREE. Kristi will be thrilled
I’ll be setting up an account as soon as I finish freaking out over this! So thank you Zookoda (wow that’s fun to say) for making this possible!
And thank you PayPerPost for this amazing chance! Good luck to all future posties on 1K Tuesday!

thanks guys, and I don’t know how I managed to type coherently…the phone was ringing and my cat was all of three feet away from me getting sick on the carpet…good stuff. And yeah, I really did need this, major stress relief.
