only backgroundI'm a wife, mother and grandmother. I'm opinionated. I contradict myself frequently. Most of all, I love my kids. I believe in them. I fight for them. They're weird and wonderful. If you want to know more, here's a bunch of other stuff from my old site.

That’s right. You can get paid to blog a review of me. Read my post, sign up for PayPerPost, get approved and write a review of me. You’ll make $5.00!! Isn’t that great?
I’ve been writing for PayPerPost for about four months now and I love this company. I never dreamed I could make money doing what I love. I’ve loved writing since I was very young so this is like my dream come true. Maybe it isn’t published on paper but it’s just as good as far as I’m concerned.
So here’s what you do. Click on my badge at the bottom of this post. Sign up for PayPerPost by submitting your blog. When your blog is approved, check out the available opps and choose the one to review my site. After you submit, your review post will be checked out by the PPP staff and when it’s approved, you’ll earn money. And you’ll promote my blog, too. Isn’t that great?
Oh, but it doesn’t stop there. You’ll be able to write other reviews and posts about websites and products and services. Choose the ones that fit your blog, write, submit, get paid! Seriously, there’s nothing better than getting paid to blog about the things you love.
So click here:
And get started!

ZDNet.com’s Larry Dignan interviews Ted Murphy, CEO of PayPerPost, about a huge rollout of new features for advertisers and bloggers scheduled for the first of next week. Can Murphy attract the interenet’s top bloggers?
Finally, an interview that’s really fair and intelligent.

Maybe it’s just me but I really detest those who think they know what’s best for me. Like the alleged White Knights in this story, people who are so worried about protecting me from myself are really just trying to protect their own interests.
A happy little tale that shows Jason Calacanis, Jeff Jarvis, Nick Denton, and Frederic (among others) that not everyone agrees with them. Dismount the horses, boys. We don’t need you to protect and defend us.

Ah, yes, another puzzle piece for all the posties participating in the PayPerPost and HP scavanger hunt. And that’s what it is, you know. Tracking down puzzle pieces on the great big World Wide Web is almost like finding a needle in a haystack. Except you don’t win a needle but $1000!
This puzzle is all about Michelle, one of the winners of as hp camera and printer that PayPerPost’s head honcho, Ted, is giving away. When all the puzzle pieces are put together, you’ll see a collage of Michelle’s pictures. I have to wonder if my Digital Photo Printing ability would improve with top quality equipment like Michelle now has. If I win that $1000, I’ll have to buy my own hp camera.
If you’re not signed up with PayPerPost now, click the link on my sidebar and sign up! Then you can search the internet for puzzle pieces and a chance to win big money. And you can get paid to blog about the things you love, too!

My friend Suni did a great graphic of the two of us. She emailed it to me and as soon as I saw it I knew. I knew that it was going to Ted at PayPerPost for his wall of Posties.
Ted needs to reserve a really great spot for this one. I got the frame this evening and the picture will be mailed first thing in the morning. I wonder how long it will take to get to Florida from West Virginia?

That’s right, ME! Marisa’s Dandelion Patch is blog of the day. How cool is that? I wondered how long before I’d make it to the BOTD. Didn’t take long at all.
Now, I’m always talking about blogging and PayPerPost and telling bloggers to sign up. In fact, I may just do another post about that soon. But right now I’m addressing those who are looking for a great way to advertise. If you have a web site, great products or a service that you’re trying to sell, why not look into PayPerPost?
Generating buzz online is best done through blogs and no one does that better than PayPerPost. Posties (PPP bloggers) test out websites, services, software and the like then report back to their readers about it. At a time when so many pop-up ads are blocked and banner ads are ignored, getting real reviews from real people can be invaluable. There’s a lot to be said for Word of Mouth advertising. PayPerPost is word-of-mouth at its best.
So if you’re trying to get your website or company off the ground or trying to pump new life into it for a customer base surge, check out PayPerPost. And tell them Marisa sent you!

Yep, it’s true. Not only does PayPerPost hook you up with the advertisers of your choice, and pay you to blog about the things you love, but they also pay you to sign up new bloggers who want to post blog ads. It’s their affiliate program and it pays a whopping $15 per sign up. Not bad, eh?
Just take a look at the cool affiliate badge you can post on your website. When someone clicks it and signs up with PayPerPost you get paid! Oh, wait, you want to sign up? Great! Click my affiliate badge. Then I’ll get paid and you’ll get to post an affiliate badge on your site.
And we can both get paid to blog about the things we love.
