Good Morning, afternoon, evening, whichever it may be in your corner of the world.
Lots of fun stuff happening at our Home on the Range. The happy hairballs are doing great. Beautiful Puppies out playing in the yards. It is such a pleasure to watch them jump run and tumble with each other...lol... I am determined! I will be taking photos over the next week and updating my main site. RobbinsRunRanch: Living the Dream. I've been working on some pretty nifty projects for that site. Some raffles, and drawings and other fun things. Not done yet but in the works.
My training program is going well, dropped some more weight, and some more inches. I have to admit that always makes me smile. I had a little bobble, as in a bounce in weight. However, I've lost that and some more besides. Yay! I've been recording my progress and such on my Fitness Fest Blog. All are welcome. I am looking for some walking partners. Being in the same location is not a requirement. We can communicate over yahoo messenger, phone, or the blogs. My yahoo messenger id is robbinsrun, when you request to be added to my contact list give me a bit of an introduction so I have a clue what's it's about.

News and Notes: Exciting Times on the High Plains
Saturday, June 30, 2007
Head shakin mini rant
Good morning … or afternoon … etc… depending on what part of the planet you live on. May all be well with you today.
It tis the last day of June on my Little Ranch here in Southeastern Wyoming. On this bright summer morn I have to say I am a bit perplexed. Actually it’s one of those moments when you just shake your head in… what would the word be. Certainly not amazement, not disbelief because you’ve seen it so many times before. It’s not disgust although sometimes it borders on that… no single word covers it. It’s a quiet to silent laugh through the nose and a head shake. At the same time a knowing look flashes through the eyes.
Most, if not all, people that actually work for themselves... note I said ACTUALLY WORK… have had this flash across their face at one time or another. It’s usually the result of someone’s naiveté. Or a comment by someone who “says” they want to be in business for themselves. Loves the idea of being in business for themselves. Is usually making no money, can’t figure out why they aren’t making any money. Want’s you to tell them how to make money. Take your time to help them get their business going. Change their financial state, physical state, mental state… whatever.
At the same time, refuses to take any action on their part. Oh let’s not forget… flat refuses to take any responsibility for the state their life/business/marriage/mental state etc is in.
Thus far this is a little rant, but I’m building up steam for a full on honkin rant complete with #$*%^#& … frankly I don’t have the time for it. I’m attacking grooming again today. And will be until I get through it. Those little hairballs need that winter coat off in this heat… so it’s the great hair off campaign.
So to wrap it up. You… Me… each and every one of is responsible for our own lives, business, marriage, mental state, messy house, or poopy drawers you may be sitting in. You don’t like that, tough tookis. It’s that free will thing. Your life your responsibility. You don’t like the way your life, etc. is going. CHANGE IT!
Here is the kicker: It takes effort on your part. Effort to learn, Effort to follow thorough, Effort to change direction when necessary. There is another word for effort… can you guess what it is. Bet you can. Ok… here it is … great mystery solved… it’s a tiny little four letter word. No not whine… Whine has five letters. The great mystery word is… drumroll please…W-O-R-K.
Think about it. What you do is up to you! On the flip side. What you don’t do is up to you! The results are yours so is the choice.
Later tater…
Life is a journey… enjoy the trip… or don’t it’s up to you… Mary E. Robbins & the Hairballs

News and Notes: Whoo Hoo Summer is Swinging
Summer is in full swing at our little home on the range. Hair is flying everywhere. Whoooo… it’s a hair flurry! In truth I’m grooming out my kennel. My little furry friends put on very heavy coat for winter. They are beautiful dogs when they aren’t in full coat, but when they are they are simply stunning. My main site RobbinsRunRanch: Living The Dream with Our Pomeranians is evolving. Beautiful puppy pictures, and other goodies as well. Come on by for a visit. Click Here:
Back to the actual ranch: I was doing some clean up chores. Disposing of used bedding. I have this big old stock tank that works as a fire ring. Then the ashes are used about the ranch. Anyway I had that fire popping. Not huge, not uncontrollable. My fire ring is right next to a water source. We do not need any range fires out here. Anyway it was just at dark and it was dancing around like liquid flame. So beautiful deep intense orange just flowing over it’s dinner. Lapping it up like a hungry dragon.
Just a thought: Wherever you are, whatever you are doing if you look. You can see beauty.
Be sure to stop by and check out the traffic builders featured this week. Excellent tools. They are featured on my Traffic Exchange Blog.
I have used the one featured this week extensively. It is a good bit of the reason that if you put my name Mary E. Robbins, in either google or yahoo you will find me on the first page. Pomeranians Wyoming, and robbinsrun come up on the first pages referring to my sites as well. Pretty exciting stuff considering 4 months ago I was around 10 to 15 pages back on my name.
Remember your focus determines where you go. When you are driving a car you look where you want to go. Then you take approiate action to get there. Turn the steering wheel, use the brakes, accelerator, etc. It’s the same thing with your business, your life overall actually. Take a moment and think about it.
Life is a journey… enjoy the trip… Mary E. Robbins & the Hairballs

News and Notes... Happy Father's Day!
Back to Father’s Day… Once again Happy Father’s Day! To all of you Dads and soon to be Dads out there… Happy Father’s Day to all Moms as well as All Single Parents. You have the combo package… Mom Dad etc.
My Pop is here visiting for a few weeks. It’s good to see him. He drove in from Minnesota. We are in South Eastern Wyoming so that is a bit of a ramble. He’ll be 80 in August and he really looks good. Living in the woods agrees with him. Literally he lives on a place out in the woods in Minnesota. He’s active and it shows.
Hello couch potatoes, want to live that long and actually be able to function. Get off the couch! Move your body, no not jiggling on the way to the frig for some more food. The longer you sit around the harder it is to get into condition. I’m finding that out for sure. My activity level was severely limited due to illness and surgery and it’s kicking my behind getting my body into condition again. Geez who dropped me in the meat grinder. It’s going to take some time and a gradual increase, but I’m keeping at it. I don’t want to be one of those people who can’t wipe their own hiney because they simply didn’t move.
Ok.. fat hineys aside. On the business end of things, so to speak. Here are a couple of top notch tools. Leads*o*matic has been revamped. It worked great before but it is really popping now. Well worth using. Pair it up with Track That Ad so you know whether your ads are being clicked on or not and you really have a winning combination.
Leads*o*matic works great developing your raw lead base as well as generating traffic to your sites.
If you want to be included in the link exchange let me know. Use links@robbinsrun.com for link exchange requests. Simply Links is my link exchange page. It’s just getting going but it is growing.
On the Hairball front, as in Pomeranians things are really looking good. Literally, beautiful little happy hairballs. I’ll be microchipping later today and taking photographs to update my puppy pictures. Wow the photos there show them as cute adorable creatures, which of course they are. But the pictures simply don’t do them justice. They are really beautiful. A pleasure to work with and enjoy. Yes I enjoy my Poms. It is so rewarding to see the joy they bring into other people’s lives as well. Be sure to stop by and take a look.
Time is flying… gotta run…

News and Notes... what is your focus?
What's that you say. No... not sticking a hot iron on your backside. I'm talking about branding yourself on the internet. If I put your name into a search engine what would come up. Would it be you?
I've been running at warp 9 for days. Taking care of my hairballs, doing client interviews, photographing Pomeranians, uploading pics, and editing. In the process I came through a nasty allergic reaction, and dropped 7 pounds. Could have done without the allergic reaction, and could stand to drop 150 more pounds. It's taken me a long time to come this far in my recovery process after having West Nile then major surgery, infections and the whole bit. It's wonderful to feel my body and mind coming alive and gaining momentum.
What does this have to do with business? It has to do with focus. Where is your focus. Where your focus is is where your life/business goes. My focus was on illness then recovery. Now it's on living and my business.
Where is your focus? What is your primary business. What is your passion?
Ah come on. Keep it clean. You know what I mean.
In my marketing efforts I come across a multitude of websites and adverts. Most are cookie cutter sites, with nothing of the person marketing them apparent at all. Only the original site creator's presence is there.Meanwhile the person marketing that site is wondering why they aren't gaining any momentum; and are still spending more than they are making.
Something to think about.
Marketing you. Branding you. What is your presence on the Internet? What is your business? Don't know? Ask yourself what your passion is. What do you know about, or what would you like to know about? Is it marketable?
What?! You thought success on the Internet was instant and anonymous. Only in fairytales.
Questions of the Day: Who are you? What is your focus? What does your presence say about you?
Yes I know it's scary to put yourself out there. Look they are only people. Well hmmm... I don't know about that ... I can be a Troll at times... lol... purple hair... green eyes... long yellow fangs... Then the sun comes up and I turn back into myself... lol...
Here is my focus:
Yes I am a real person. This is Who I am. What I'm about. Of course if you would like to know more you can always pick up the phone.

Absolutely Beautiful Healthy Happy Hairballs... otherwise known as Pomeranians are our Passion. As a dog breeder I have specialized in Pomeranians; and have over 30 years experience.
Our Poms are AKC registered, vaccinated, and microchipped. I have Standard, parti, & exotic coat colors available. Absolutely wonderful dogs... but of course I would think so...lol...
There are photos of both puppies and their parents on my website.. enjoy
I get pretty backlogged in email so if you do not hear back from me directly, as within a day or so. Pick up the phone and call me after looking over the web site.
I'll be happy to chat with you... and answer any questions you may have. Of course I’ll have a few of my own as well. It is important to me to place my wonderful Poms in loving lifetime homes. The right match between person and Pomeranian is important…. It is a long term commitment for you… but it is a lifetime commitment for the Pomeranian. Wonderful loving creatures that they are they deserve loving lifetime homes.
Do come see us at our happy home on the web. Or if you would like you are welcome to tour our ranch in Wild Wonderful Wyoming and meet our Happy Hairballs "Pomeranians" in person. Of course visits are by appointment.
We do not deal with pet shops, brokers, or labs, for puppy placement. Our Pomeranians are all placed with their adoptive people after we have concluded our interview process.
We support our Pomeranians and Lifestyle with Internet based marketing, search engine optimization, and coaching. We work with a variety of affiliates, projects, programs, and clientele; and would be happy to help you in your work at home efforts.
