Drawn Together by Modesty

I’ve got to do what I can to get the word out about one particular scam company. I despise injustice, and I don’t want to see any more sisters lose their money to these thieves. But I don’t want to link to those web sites because it will give those web sites “link power”.

I’ve been notified of a handful of scam stores over the years, but there is one in particular that takes the cake for nastiness. It’s one business that runs quite a few web sites. There is a discussion going on about it at another sister’s blog.

The web sites run by this one person are listed below. If you want to get to the web sites to see if you recognize them, the URL is the words I’ve written out plus .com.

I’ve spent a lot of time wading through old e-mails this week and last, and I am happy to report that I am done with July e-mails! But that’s 2007 July e-mails. I am so embarrassed to admit how far behind I am, but it makes me more real for you to know my “areas for improvement”…so they say.

Only 1183 more e-mails to go!

Yes, this is a blatant attempt to earn $12 for every person I get signed up for Amazon Prime Free Trial. But I really, really do LOVE this service, so I feel justified telling you about it. I pay an annual fee and then get free 2-day shipping from Amazon.com all year long. I’m in my second (or third) year using this service, and I love it. Since I do most of my shopping online, and most of that from Amazon.com, I easily recoup the annual fee by not paying for shipping for things I would have purchased anyway.

So what have I been buying from Amazon.com?

I finally realized I can put forth a public apology on my blog to all those waiting for an e-mail reply from me. I am soooooooo behind in answering my e-mails. I’m not kidding. They go back to at least 12 months. I intend to answer each and every one of them. I’m trying very hard to get on top of things. I’ve hired two assistants to help me, so hopefully I will be able to get through all my e-mails in the coming weeks.

It’s one of the drawbacks of working from home and being a mom.
