- Someone who spills her personal guts just to get you to read my blog
- Someone with a mouth like a truck driver- if you’re reading my blog I don’t want you 5 year old to walk up and ask why I spelled Duck with an “F” instead of a D- You’ll NEVER find that language here
- Someone who bad mouths others. I may not agree with how other bloggers do things but I won’t slam them either energy is precious nastiness is a waste.
- Someone who pleases the masses- I spent years being famous as other personalities ( see my story for details) I know that some people love you and some despise you nothing you can do to change either.
- Selfish. I may self promote but I love to promote you too. I”m always available to share your dream with others.

ABOUT ME PART II VEGAS SIDE
Singer, Former Vegas Impersonator...which ones? Madonna, Cher, Marilyn, Shania ; I have proof people LOL. Blogger, Wife, First time mom, Mompreneur, Baby product creator. There you go all you need to know and some you wish you didn’t.
I was born in Massachusetts moved to Michigan when I was only five. Raised in Detroit went to EMU , quit EMU, went on the road to become a gypsy. Well not really a gypsy but the closest you can come to it without actually being one I was a singer in a band. I traveled all over the USA singing in clubs and theme parks until our band passed through Vegas.

That’s when I became an impersonator. Yup those weird people you see on Oprah, & Ellen who dress and sing like famous celebrities, that was me. I performed as Shania, Cher, Marilyn Monroe & others. I loved the work I traveled from China, Bahamas, Thailand, Japan and everywhere in between. I had been pretty successful, but was ready for change.

On one of my gigs I met Chad. He was hot, mouthy, and had a custom Harley I knew he was the man for me. LOL I still performed & traveled around the country. I really enjoyed being a newlywed we were married July 18, 2008. But I knew my life was about to change. I was ready to do something new.
At the time we were trying to get pregnant it had only been four months but both mothers were telling me to get checked, go to the doctor ( I was 40). Monday” Are you pregnant? “no” Tuesday ” Are you pregnant? ” NO” Wednesday “Are you Pregnant” “NOO” ” How bout now? ” Holy Crap if I’m pregnant I’ll know and then I’ll tell you stop asking every day! I knew I’d get pregnant so I just ignored the stress and we tried on.
An opportunity came up at church to be a receptionist. I knew it would be like putting a wild butterfly in a cage after all most of my life I have been self-employed and a traveling gypsy. Now I’d have to work from 8-5 in an office. But if you want a change you have to CHANGE. So I took the job.
I still sang just didn’t impersonate any longer. One week at my new job and I found out Matilda was on her way. We were excited but totally unprepared.
I knew being at church was a divine set up . No more smoky clubs I got to sit all day it was great.
The most precious gift I’ve ever received came into my life April 1, 2011. Matilda Grace Hanson
I know I don’t have to tell any of you awesome moms how life changes when the baby comes. I didn’t want to be away from her 9 hours a day so I quit my job at church. That was before colic and reflux, and temper tantrums, and days of no sleep…but I must love punishment I still want to be with her all day.
My Pastor asked if I would do research for her upcoming book from home. Perfect! So that brings us to today.
I’m creating a new baby product that will make moms life easier it’s already a prototype and now I’m going through the process. I can’t wait to share it with all of you and hear all about your stories. Being a mother is the greatest thing I’ve ever done and I intend to enjoy every minute of it from teething the smiles and everything in between! That’s my story….what’s yours?

Hi Lisa,
I love your story. I’d like to help you promote your baby product. I teach a natural childbirth class once a month for my local hospital.
I help people everyday create a greener-safer environment for their families. I’m always looking for passioante women who want to make a difference. I’d love to chat with you about possibly working with me (from home of course!).
Sue!! I just noticed this I am so sorry
I will write to you 
Saw your video on Yahoo about living on 50% and thought it was great. Your blog here looks fantastic. I’d love to get my cell phone bill cut in half like you did. We’re paying about $190/mo. for two iPhone 4′s. You’re also lucky to have paid off your Navigator. Our cars are our largest expense and there’s no way to trade them in for cheaper ones without putting something like $8,000 cash down. They are too upside down in value to sell. I wish I was one payment away from paying those things off like you talked about in the video.
You must have had a lot of fun doing those shows. I would love to look like a famous star. I think I could have a lot of fun with that.
It was fun except for the cray haters that came along with it- I could have gone a lifetime without them
Came across your blog through the yahoo story, and just wanted to comment that I also have a daughter named Matilda. Matilda Jane. And I haven’t met but two other Matilda’s before. Most people say how lovely a name it is and they had a great Aunt Matilda, or other ancestor.
My Matilda is 13 and only has to go by her first name, since she is the only Matilda in her school.
I’d even bet she’s the only Matilda in her school district. Good choice!
And good luck with your blog. I am getting ready to make a career change myself. I want to be able to live on less while my career is established, so thanks for the tips!
Linda thank you for sharing that. I love my daughter’s name and was surprised that people would say things like that but I suppose ignorance knows no boundaries. They just wanted to be mean for the sake of meaness so I shook it off. Love your daughter’s name of course! And I’m sure your career change will be great.
Hi Lisa,
I learn about your blog through Lisa Ladrido and am very interested in your ebook Get Famous. I love your blog and your way of approaching this make money blogging concept.
Thanks for sharing so much in a fresh and easy to understand way. You’re awesome and inspiring!
Janus thank you so much . I adore Lisa! I am thankful she shared my blog with you. I trust you will find many tips to help your blogging journey.
Hey Lisa!
First…Loved your “what I am / am not” section a lot! Very encouraging to see positive people shining on the web!
My name is Eli, I’m a married father of four great kids and an amazing wife. I try to do something artistic with my kids on Mondays (my day off) and we ended up doing a great project together. We created a cool little childrens book for the iPad! I launched it through the company InteractBooks, and we’re getting great reviews and awesome support from everyone. I’m honestly hoping it will blossom into a bit of a career for us…but who knows? We enjoyed the process together as a family either way. But…would SO love any comments, promotion or plain ol’ talking it up you could offer. Thank you, and blessings on your new opportunities!
Eli did you also send a quick email? Is this the one that has Hebrew also?
Hi Lisa:
I just wanted to say what a beautiful lady you are in and out. I would be proud to have you a my friend. You look sooo young; you say you were forty when you had your beautiful and adorable baby girl Matilda. I think that you are truly blessed with your family.
Good luck with your business, may God Bless everything you do!
I wish I could write a book about raising a family on limited income. I raised three children in the 80′s and 90′s on only $8000.00 a year—-without health insurance, food stamps, medicaid or any other benefit. We always lived great each and everyday. It was hard, but I refused to leave my children with “babysitters”. I was their Mom, they needed me and I needed them more!
Again, I think that you have done a wonderful job with it all.
Thank you so much Geraldine
) I am actually 42 now 
) And thank you I trust He is blessing me I can’t do anything without HIM 
I think you should write that book! It would be a great source of encouragement to other moms and I’m sure you have much to share:)
Thank you for stopping by and being so sweet it made my day!
New follower! Linking up from the blog up, thanks!
