Popinjay: Toolbox of Hope

Popinjay: Toolbox of Hope Sophistishe mommy blog

My laptop is very dear to me. I call it my toolbox. Since it’s from the Toughbook series, it is built to withstand drops, spills, and other toddler mistreatment. It also has a cool handle for easy grabbing. Inside, it holds everything that allows me to work from home. Everything I need to edit photos, design graphics and sites, set up auctions, write, and network with companies. With the current economy, the start of a new year, and me leaving the blog that was our main source of income, things have started to slow down. It is my hope that I can generate some consistent income with my toolbox. Inside it holds a lot of hope.

I’m participating in a weekly concept photography challenge started by my friend, Michelle. Last week’s challenge was HOPE. Next week’s is ALIVE. To learn how you can join us in the Popinjay challenge, visit michellependergrass.com.

    Girl I totally get wanting to keep your secrets. Like you said it was about safe guarding your biz so you can take care of your family. sometimes you have to be careful how you share info and with whom. Dust the guilt off your shoulder :)

    And yeah Im also a laptop groupie, I gotta checkout the Toughbook series. Thinking of getting a new one cause im wearing my current one out!

      I’m starting to feel better. I just feel like maybe because of my secretiveness, I may have lost a few potential friends. You do what you gotta do.

      In full disclosure, my Toughbook is a review item. It is pricey. Don’t say I didn’t warn ya! Because this post is more about what it means to me and not me reviewing it, I did not want to ruin the moment going all into disclosure…but for the sake of the blog police…THERE.

    I call my laptop my personal POS xD And I have been trying to use it to make money but it’s just not working out that way for me…

    Good luck to you though :D

    I’ve read your other website and I’m glad to see that you’re back on the personal blogging scene. I’d started to open another domain for the purpose of being a mommy blogger but I decided to just intertwine everything into one blog. It’s just easier that way.

      It sure is easier. It took me, eh, 2yrs to figure that out. AGH.

      I’m glad to connect with you once again, mama. :)

    Sheena–I never thought of it that way. And I wouldn’t know you without having met Jaymi and I wouldn’t have met Jaymi without Twitter. :) And I just love you girls to pieces!!
