I told my Twitter friends Merry Christmas and wanted to blog it also. I started Twittering this Spring and I haven’t let up. Through it I feel connected to a lot of interesting people and especially important to me, I’m connected to a larger community of Internet or New Media folks. Many times I still bump up against people who I must justify my existence as an Internet Marketer to.

I both love and hate change and in the past months I have realized that my love affair with Internet marketing has settled into a more comfortable existence. The passionate mad race to learn has subsided to normal life, which to be honest, scared me a little.
I actually felt some burnout probably most of it starting about the time I got unexpectedly laid off from a job that I really liked (which was well chronicled on another blog). Though I knew it had nothing to do with my skills and everything to do with budgets and a small business, it was still rough. I was just getting to consider buying a house and settling down.

Things with my own business have been slower than I wish but still progress, thanks to teaming up with a programmer named Shaun. I’ve ridden the crazy ride of business ups and downs. When you’re on that roller coaster I think the best thing to do is put up both arms and say Wheeeeeee!!! I think instead I tightened my grip a bit. I’ve always been one to like having both feet on the ground while still enjoying adventures.

So here are my Christmas wishes:

- for Kelly at StartupPrincess. That she find a viable profit model for her excellent community
- for Jason at Jibberjobber. That he writes more books and goes on a book tour
- for me. That the site is up and working and we land advertising clients and that I figure out the direction I’m taking next - solitary confinement or corporate life
- for Paul Wilson. That the universe starts the boomerang effect and all that he gives starts coming back to him in the form of prosperity and rich [solid] foods
- for Phil801. That he is feeding all those kids and finding what he needs (as he has almost completely disappeared)
- for Laura M. peace on earth and in her tiny house and many sales of her new fitness journal
- for Troy. Renewed faith in friendship and humanity along with a fulfilling job
- for Andy B. The chance to break a big story with insider information
- for my bloggers. On-time paychecks

I’m sure there are more wishes to wish but Christmas presents need wrapping and preparations that need attention. Hope to you - peace, happiness, and prosperity!
