Welcome To Wahm CafeI'm Dianne, and I'll be your hostess :) In these trying economic times, it's important to work together, help each other out, and there's no group of people better suited to that task than Work At Home Moms.

After 7 years of being deeply embedded in the Wahm community online, I find my goals changing, and the re-appearance of my own true self coming out. A person that I'd almost forgotten existed.. someone that I missed, a lot. I love being a Work at Home Mom, and now that I have re-discovered a forgotten passion, I truly believe that I will be able to bring even more insight and information to you.. my fellow Work At Home Moms.

Thank you for being a faithful friend, new reader, or just a curious Mom who found Wahm Cafe by accident... no matter how you arrived here, I'm honored that you're visiting.

Wordpress - MySQL server has gone away

Wow .. that was scary!  Wahm Cafe was down for 2 days before I finally found the solution!  All you probably would have seen was a blank page when you arrived here, which was bad enough, but then to have my hosting company tell me that my .htaccess file had been changed yesterday had me [...]

300 Blogs That Don't Accept Paid Entrecard Ads

You may have noticed the following graphic in my sidebar:
That’s correct.. Wahm Cafe is not accepting any of Entrecard’s paid advertisements.  I believe in giving credit where credit is due.. and that would be to those who are working hard for their ad placements, not the one’s that are simply paying for the ad spot.
As [...]

Twit And Run or Twitter Addict?

Twit And Run or Twitter Addict?

I’ve admitted on more than one occasion that I tend to use Twitter in spurts, however I do recognize the power of the Tweet and always end up going back for more. In recent weeks, I’ve had several friends follow me, and today when I went to check up on them, I discovered that the majority of them had posted one tweet right after setting up their account, and they haven’t been seen since. The term that I’ve coined for this phenomena is the “Twit-and-Run”.

Online Tools For The Work At Home Newbie

Online Tools For The Work At Home Newbie

Twice this past week, I’ve two people have asked me for advice about how to make money at home. Now I’m not an Internet marketing expert by any measure. In fact, I’ve only had a monetized blog for eight months. On the other hand, I do know how to update and customize a Wordpress blog, redirect affiliate links and get a site indexed in Google overnight… which means I probably know more than most newbies, including my two friends.

A New Beginning - Emergency Planning

A New Beginning - Emergency Planning

Yesterday it really hit me that everything can change in a blink of an eye. Close friends of ours experienced one of the worst things that can happen to a family - a house fire. One of the things my friend Laura kept referring to was all of her pictures, which got me thinking about my own home and the thousands of pictures that I have stored on my computer, and all of my pre-digital pictures that are piled in storeage boxes waiting to be scrapbooked. Memories that could never be replaced if they were lost.
