Adgitize is Closing Down

At 9:30 in the evening, I received an email from Ken Brown. He's the owner of Adgitize, a program that sends traffic to your website and earn the bucks again if you become an Advertiser. The email states that Adgitize is closing down because "the costs to run the business were more than the revenues generated". Furthermore, on the 27th of December, there will be new accounts. Adgitize will shut it down. On the 1st day of January 2012, Adgitize will officially stop showing ads and all members publishers will not receive revenues. If you have ads running on them, they will refund it on assessment and divide it into your ad price.

Prorated portion of ad price means if you have an ad running and it expires on January 15th, 2012 then we will send you a PayPal payment of 15/31st of the purchase price. If the purchase price was $14 then you will receive $6.77 USD from Adgitize. We expect to make all payments to refund advertisers fees by January 4th, 2012. If you want payment by check then you will have to wait until after the 12th of January before we send those payments out. 

Payouts for publishers and affiliates for the month of December will run on the normal schedule and should be complete by January 10th, 2012, except for those requesting checks which won't be processed until January 12th, 2012. There is a processing fee of $5.00 per check if your preferred payment method is by check. All publishers with monies owed them who have given us a valid payment method will be paid from $0.01 USD and up.
 Adgitize is great especially for newbies. I become a member in Adgitize 2009 without understanding fully its process. I add it in my blogs with the given-codes. I didn't bother to add the rss (feeds) url in adgitize. All I know is gain 100 points in adgitizing and post an article everyday. But, now that I understand it, add my rss and will decide to renew it on January, Adgitize is closing down.

I am very sad with the news. One, traffic - Adgitize is the number one traffic source for this blog. Second, revenues' as a publisher. That is the reason why I want to renew it because for the 1st month $14, I will not earn anything. I did not adgitize and post articles everyday. Renewing the ad for $8 is the best option and chance to earn what I invest, little by little

After Adgitize, now what? We will be facing a new year without Adgitize and one source of income was taken down, again. There's nothing we can do but follow and look for another way to earn.

Baby Chrizs is Teething

Six months is the average age to get a first tooth. It was different for baby Chrizs. He got his first tooth at nine months. I taught someone taught him how to bite. He tried to put things like clothes and toys in his mouth to bite it. But, I was wrong. His godfather saw one tooth when Baby Chrizs smiled and laughed on his funny antics. I tried to take a photo of his tooth but when I ask to open his mouth or touch his mouth, he shows his tongue. :)

I would like to share "A New Parent's Guide", According from this site, some babies suffer from this symptoms when teething:

Irritability - The baby is irritable because it experiences sore tooth and pain when it rises closer to the gum's surface. Fortunately, Baby Chrizs is not fussy and irritated with it.

Drooling - Baby Chrizs starts drooling at 5 months and every one I met told me that his teething.

Coughing -It occurs when an extra saliva can cause your baby to cough. But there's nothing to worry about if there's no high fever.

Chin Rash - constant contact of saliva. I saw Baby Chrizs had this for a day. I put an ointment on his chin. Not entirely but only the little red spots on his chin.

Biting and Gnawing - Biting relieves the pressure from under baby's gums. Yes, Baby Chrizs puts clothes and other soft material on his mouth to bite. I always stop him from doing this because it's dirty. I give him a teether but he don't like it and throw it away. I wash a soft cloth, made of cotton material and let him gnaw it.

Cheek Rubbing and Ear Pulling - pains travels from gums to the ears and checks. Honestly, I saw my baby rubbing his cheek and pulling his ear but I do not have the idea until I read these symptoms. My heart sank. I'll check his ear and place a cold cloth on his cheek.

Diarrhea - Fortunately, baby Chrizs did not suffer from any diarrhea up until this time. If your baby has this symptom while teething, please inform your doctor.

Low-grade Fever - slight fever occurs perhaps on babies who can really handle the pain. I am happy that Baby Chrizs did not have a fever, hopefully.

Not Sleeping Well - it is due to the pain that he could not sleep well. During night time, Baby Chrizs can hardly sleep at night. He cries and had nightmares (ex: crying while asleep and throws fit). I have to wake him up and carry him to comfort.

Cold symptoms (ex: runny nose) - Call a doctor when cold symptoms occur. Sometimes, Baby Chrizs sneezes but no runny nose. What I did is give him his vitamins and fruits like lemon juice. These are the source for vitamins C which is good for protecting the immune system.
If all these symptoms occur and persist, please inform your doctor.

Merry Christmas To One and All



It's Christmas but we're suffering from difficulties and hardships! It's always a challenge, though. It is not easy to set our feet to move forward, immediately. But then, let bygones be bygones! 

Let's thank God for the chance to live and pass through difficult times. 

In behalf of my family, with all our hearts,
Merry Christmas everyone!

Just Arrived... Not so good news, yesterday!

I just arrived errr.. it's 7 hours ago and it's a late post! I took a nap after, for about 4 hours. Oh, is that a nap or sleep? My feet is aching and tired from walking around the two malls! That's North Edsa and SM Fairview! At North Edsa, I went there to exchange the Yoshinoya's P500 worth of gift certificates (I won in Jayson Biadog's contest) and Skin Food voucher from Chic and Sassy Homemaker. I did not have a chance to take a photo of the food because we devoured it, immediately. Also, I forgot to take a photo of Skin Food with the Golden Kiwi gift set. Well, you can call me, Ms. Forgetful! Will blog about it, tonight.

The not-so-good news is that my wallet was stolen from my bag while I'm on my way out from SM Fairview to cross the streets and ride on a bus. I am so tired and it's night time, time to rush home. Both my hands were full of green bags, so, I had no chance to secure my body bag. Good thing, the coins, SS ID and cellphone were separated in different bag pockets. What that lady pick pocket got is my Philhealth card (renewable), atm card (closed account), receipts, coins from Charms and Crystal that needs blessing and more or less than 300 worth of money. My wallet is bulky because of the cards and receipts but little cash.

When I arrived home, another stolen situation made my ears red, again! This time, it's an online gaming items. One of the shop gamer stole an item from another shop gamer. I hope he reads this post because I'm not afraid to intervene even if my husband tried to stop me. He's a bad influence!

It's 6:30am and I need to get back to sleep, at least before my baby wakes up for his morning breakfast and bath. Good vibes, everyone! :)
