Monday Mingle Vlogging Tips

Good Morning everyone! I’m bringing you the latest with Monday Mingle, today the topic is Vlogging tips. Want to participate? Monday Mingle is a Meme over at Eighty MPH Mom. Go over to her site, find the questions, take a video of the answers and post them to share. Then visit everyone that linked up and have fun getting to know each other.

I like to use Windows Movie Maker, it’s free and so far does everything I need it to do to edit the video. You can add music, a title screen and credits. You can also add captions and record the video directly from the webcam on your computer. Then I upload it to youtube that has always worked really well for me. Sometimes, I upload video to momtv. I’m really exhausted this morning and don’t have a lot to say so I’m going to cut it off there. I look forward to everyone else’s answers!

Monday Mingle What’s your look?

 

It’s time for Monday Mingle. What are the crazy things you have done to change your looks. Today over at Jennifer’s blog EightyMPHmom is asking a few questions about how you change your looks. Me, I’m not big on my looks anyways. Yes, when I go to blog events I’ll do more than usual to dress up, but at home, I’m a mommy and dress down. I just hate getting my nice clothes covered in paint or food you know. But at most events, I look at those like job opportunities. So I dress up.

Here are the questions this week:

This week’s questions (submitted by Debbie from Musings in the Key of D):

1. What is/was your favorite thing you have done to change your look? i.e. tanning, hair removal, new cut/color, different style of clothes, hair extensions etc.
2. What is/was NOT such great a way to change your looks?
3. If time and money were not an inconvenience, which would you prefer laser hair removal or permanent makeup ? Why?

I’m just not big into make up, I’m not into tanning. I didn’t mention this in the video but I have been tanning before. It’s not for me. I think it’s a pain in the butt. I don’t’ like going to salons a great deal because I hate having people touch my feet. Next week are my questions.

Monday Mingle Spending Time Together

Hi everyone, I missed Monday Mingle last week, I just haven’t been very into blogging lately. You can probably tell as my articles have been less inspired than I usually prefer. I’ve been having such a great time playing with my kids. Zoe goes to preschool in the morning and Miles and I have been having quality time together.

I haven’t shared anything about my depression in a while because it’s been quite a bit better. Why? Because it was Summer and the sun was out, and because I’ve been having a lot of interaction with people. Real interaction so I’m afraid to give up the interaction with people all day to go back to serious blogging. I’ve been happier blogging too since I’ve been spending more time reading everyone else’s posts and that always takes away from time I have to actually blog. You know? Oh well. Things seem to be going ok with the blog and with my life!

Now for the Monday Mingle:

This week’s questions:

1. Name an activity you do with your significant other (or kids), just because it makes them happy.
2. What is something you (or you and your spouse) used to do that you really miss now?
3. What qualities/features do you have from each of your parents?

You can do it too! Monday Mingle that is:

Monday Mingle Guilty Pleasures, What is Your Guilty Pleasure?

Today’s Monday Mingle From Eighty MPH Mom is about your guilty pleasures. Hmm, this could be quite an interesting topic for some. I didn’t answer the first question on the video. I probably should have just said the craziest thing I did. When I was in collage, I got on a plane to visit my ex. I really wanted to go see him so I hopped on a plane and had his friend pick me up, it was a very very bad idea. My ex had a new girlfriend and the friend that picked me up was hitting on me and yeah, it was bad. Worst thing was that when I tried to get home before my mom noticed I was gone, the flight had been canceled. So I had to beg the airlines to find me a flight home so I wouldn’t get caught. Luckily I made it home safe and sound. Crazy and impulsive, that was me once upon a time before kids!
