Keyword Confusion

Once again my brain is suffering information overload. I'm still kind of following the 30 day challenge, but Market Samurai kept freezing my computer, so I had to quit using it. Still there's much information to be learned on the days I can bear to listen to the droning uuuuhhs and drawn out words or try to understand the British accents. No offense intended to the British, but I'm a Southern USA person and I have a hard time with it.

I've found several other websites. One of them is 30 minute back links by Michelle MacPhearson. It's a video where she shows exactly how to research key words and keep refining them until you find one that you can be competitive in. About the time she was getting to how to establish back links my browser shut down! I don't know if this is a test to see how persistent I can be or if I'm just not ready to learn this key word business yet. I have learned quite a bit from various places and have rewritten several of my articles. They seem to be doing a little better, but I've still not hit the jackpot.

I finished what I could remember of the things I'd heard about my Mother's side of the family history and sent it to my daughter who is keeping up with and researching our genealogy. She was very appreciative since my mother died before she was old enough to remember her. Now I'm working on my Father's side. I have to put a disclaimer on all his stories because he was such a grand spinner of yarns I never knew what was true and what was a yarn based on a smidgen fact. I'm glad she asked me to do this. I find myself smiling or outright laughing at some of the memories. It feels good.

I'm finished for the day. Now for a long soak in the tub. Maybe everything I read and heard today will miraculously come together and make sense in the steam.
