Hi,

I tried to add voice to a video but it didn’t work too well, I used a rubbish mic. I have ordered a new one from Amazon so that should be here in a few days. Normally I would be pacing the floor for it, but actually I have a cold so my voice is a bit rough anyway. Hopefully it will be back to normal for the time the microphone arrives. In the meantime, I may put the video up just with music in the background, especially as I have had another idea regarding the videos.

The microphone I ordered is a Logitech USB Desktop Microphone; I don’t know much about microphones but it had 22 reviews, 20 of which were five out of five and the other two were four out of five so I figured it would probably be ok.

I have also decided that I need to make the vids more “squeeze page-ish” so I am going to look through my file of good squeeze pages and see what I can ermmmmmmm (trying to think of a better word than “steal”) adapt to the videos to make them more compelling.

The kids and I had a great time today, I took them out for lunch at one of our favourite kid-friendly restaurants and then let them come with me to do the shopping. My number one son had earned some money which he spent on some toys, and number two son had a great time running about on his reins, which was new for him. I have been really busy on the computer, there are only so many times I can say “mummy’s busy”, so it was lovely to spend some time with them and have a relax.

My daughter is delighted that I have let her take over the Amazon side of the business with my husband Paul. She is fifteen and when she wants to be she is a real hard worker. I am hoping it’s going to make them work together and maybe get on a bit better – he is her step-dad, it’s always a bit stressful.

RIght, now I need to put the little birds and Titus (African Grey) to bed, and let the dogs out.

I hope everyone had a great and productive day,

Best wishes,

Ruth
