What a Girl Wants

So. I’m looking into putting up ads on my blog. Taking it slooooow. Don’t want to compromise the integrity of the feeling creative purpose of the blog.

Wouldn’t mind being able to supplement my wonderful teaching salary.

In one year we will have two kids in college.

This summer my mom turned 82. I would love to take off and visit her in California, visit my sister, my niece and my nephew. Drive. Not in a circle.

But nothing in the budget for that. Unless we didn’t pay daughter’s college tuition this year. Hmm. Only kidding.

So. Besides making room for some ads, I thought about what I would like to have for fun and blogging. Why don’t I just put it out there. See what The Universe thinks. Or the product manufacturers.

One. I covet this camera and a couple lenses. Think of the Friday Fotos kicked up a notch by a real camera. I love my little digital pocket camera, but I am ready to put on my big girl camera panties.

Two. This surf camera. I realize I am a 51 year old body boarder who does not take on huge waves. But I figure most of my readers would still enjoy video of what I see when I am out and what it is like to fly down the wave.

Three. This waterproof camera for diving and snorkeling.

Think of the posts with photos and videos with that arsenal of camera equipment. WooooHooo!!! Giddy on up.

Four. As long as I am wishing out loud. A laptop computer. Our desktop is shared by three of the four members of our family. It would be nice to blog at will and not during my allotted time slots. I remember reading a post by Marinka where she showed off her free Vivienne Tam Laptop. And being totally jealous.

OK Universe. I’m waiting....
