I love to write. Unfortunately, I write about a lot of things most people could care less about so I don’t anticipate a lot of readership.
I am a single mom with six kids. We live in upstate New York which I love. I would never have thought I would live about 20 miles from where I grew up as a child but I do. By day, I “work” for myself doing freelance and contract work which, at the moment, is mostly in the political arena. By any other time – day, afternoon, night, whenever I can get a free moment, I am an artist. My art is in paper; my art is in mixed media; my art is in found items. I play!

Wow! what a busy person you are….put me to shame.
Look forward to reading your blog some more, bookmarked it

Nicki,
Don’t freak out, but it’s snowing all over your nickisnook site.
I just wanted to let you know. Turn the computer off before it melts into the MotherBoard. If it does, you’ll have a ‘Mother’ of an expensive repair…
How DO you make it ‘virtually snow’? That is TOO cool…
Happy New Year my blog friend,
Mike
Mike –
Unlike here in the Southern Tier, snow on my blog is a switch that wordpress provides. I can turn it off and on. LOL – oh to be able to do that in real life!
Happy New Year!!
Nicki
Hi, Nicki:
I was so happy to see you, your family, and your mother yesterday at that heartfelt tribute to your father. An honor guard of firemen! What a testimony to his great work and good deeds.
You are as warm and welcoming in person as you were on the phone. I thank you.
Thank you, too, Nicki, for sending me the invitation to write to you through pressconnects, but I couldn’t figure it out. My e-mail address is: shellyreuben@aol.com My website is http://www.shellyreuben.com So let’s do it that way.
You aleady know my phone number, and I am here whenever you need me.
A hug and a kiss to you and your mother.
Shelly
Where do you find legitimate freelance work? I am having trouble finding anything I can do at home and still make a little extra money.
Hi Lisette,
I have found work through a variety of locations. What type of freelancing do you do? I have writing gigs on Craig’s List. I belong to a web site called FreelanceMom.com, where there is a forum and occasional jobs posted.
Thanks for stopping by my blog.

do you have any art that you have done? i like media arts:) tnx
Al – Thanks for stopping by. You can find art if you scroll down to the categories and click the art category. It has been a while since creation has happened but that will have to change soon. I need to make some time.
