Me and a blog..whaa??

So I see people talk about blogging all the time...some even show up on morning shows because they have a following.  My initial reason for starting this blog is/was to review items and services that I have personal experience with.  I was...for lack of a better term, power couponing on Amazon in exchange for a review of the product. If the product sucked...I let them know...if it was awesome I let them know...if it was awesome and ran wicked small I told them how many sizes up to buy it...I had well over 550 helpful votes...and I love helping people...and what does Amazon do, they rip them down...and we can no longer review an item that we did not purchase...so yes..that awesome 60 inch flat screen your significant other got for you as a present...you did not pay for it so you can not review it...and get this...even if you buy you can not review until you've spent 50 dollars!  so if you spend 49.99...shipping and your prime membership do not count towards this $50 dollars either.  I am noticing they are nickel and diming me now...I have a prime membership, and I do use their cloud as I have a ginormous music collection...now I have to pay a separate subscription on top of Prime...and Prime went up in cost.  One interesting fact I found out...and I know most do not realize this....whenever I gave something 3 out of 5 stars...I thought that was it was ok...not awful, not super duper...kind of a neutral review....but 3 stars is considered negative.  Now if you leave 3 stars on something that Amazon stocks and sells thinking you're being neutral, it's not a big deal, but the suppliers/vendors who are listed as the sellers but Amazon fulfills...well that goes against their business.  I feel duped...plus I really like writing...anyone who still speaks to me can tell you about the booklike emails I write....I'm sick...so I feel like I'm just wasting air at times and am alone most of the time....and it gets pretty lonely...when I was writing those reviews I felt like I had a purpose again, and I was helping others...something I absolutely love doing.  I've not been able to do what I used to do because of my illness and someday it will take me, but in the meantime I plan on making whatever time I have on this planet count.  So while this originally started out as a review blog...who knows where it will go...I'm not even sure who can see this as I have never blogged before...I have a few reviews posted on a page by the same name of this blog, I have an instagram account, but I think I will make a new one just for this...if not then I'll just use the old one...so...as of this very second...I'm thinking reviews with pictures and the more part...well...that will evolve I guess.  First blog post completed!
