One Per Day in April 2017

-
This blog almost hit 10,000 hits in one month in December 2016. With it being a new year and now a quarter way done with, I want to reach that milestone. One way is to create content. I have 7,500 photos on my phone just waiting to be shared with you via this blog. I am finding that the popular posts are about travel. If I could travel, eat and drink around the world for a living, I would be living the dream.

Viansa in Sonoma, California with these beauties - November 2016.
Thanks to a posting by fellow blogger, Color U Bold, I was inspired to post once a month to see if could do it and if it would increase my traffic. I definitely posted once a day, I hit 90,000 hits that month and increased my hits by 25%. One year later, I am going to attempt this challenge again. Will it increase my hits by 25%? If so, I will reach 10,000 hits in one month.

Would you do this challenge with me too? If so, be sure to Tweet me your latest blog post (@bappletree).

I'd like to give a shout out to a few of my favorite supporters. Please visit their blogs! I have yet to meet these bloggers in person but I'm sure it'll happen someday.



Looking forward to a fun, blog-filled April. No joke.

This is #1 of 30 daily blog posts to hit 10,000 hits in one month. I did the same challenge in April 2016. Thank you for visiting and please check back tomorrow and share anything you like!

It's Gonna Be May

I'm sure you've seen it. If you have a friend named May, the *Nsync memes are overtaking your Facebook and Instagram feed, right? Tomorrow ends the month of April and I was 10 posts behind the daily blog post challenge. For this Monday Motivation post, I will keep going until I reach that 30 count. Better late than never! May is turning out to be a busy month. Not surprising for this One Busy Bee. I finally have a set schedule for my part time job as a Concierge at the Argonaut Hotel at Fisherman's Wharf. I really do like the job, what I'm doing, the hotel and staff, and how the time spent here contributes to my experience in the travel and tourism industry, all the while continuing in the hospitality industry as well. Working only about 30 hours a week, it will finally allow me to schedule workouts, get in some sort of sleeping pattern and work on my business as a Travel Agent . There is so much to do! So far since I received the month's work schedule

The Bad Girls Club & Love Games, Sarah Michaels, IS the Wellness Shot!

I became a fan of the Bad Girls Club when a Season 3 marathon was airing (in 2008, is it?) and I just had the television on while I was doing chores around the house. Every now and then I’d hear “*BEEP* you, you *BEEP*ing *BEEP*!”, some screaming and “This is the Amber Show” do-do-do-do-do-Doo! Eventually I was glued to the screen and not doing chores anymore and spent most of the day laughing and thinking “ohnoshedidn’t!” They were NUTS! I don’t think I could live my life with a camera following me around and for the whole world to see and criticize. But I kept on watching and when fights broke out, my boyfriend would hear the screaming from another room and ask “WHAT are you watching?!?” I am not one for reality television. MTV had it with The Real World with Pedro, Puck, Pam and whoever… when it was in San Francisco. (GO GIANTS!) With all these Big Brother, The Bachelorette and other shows popping up, there were just too many to pick and choose from to watch. And I was never a

I have lived in Hayward for almost 15 years and this long-time vacant orange  building is being demolished. Condos and retail space will take its place. What kind of retail shops would you like to see here? Being a foodie, I would like unique restaurants. Below are photos taken the week of June 12, 2017. I hope to post more updates.
