Happy Birthday Mango’s Corner (belated). Mango’s Corner was born on August 17, 2005 making us three years (and one month plus one week) old. Mango’s Corner started out as a pets and pet care blog, but has since grown into much more. While pets and pet care are cool (hey we have lots of fur children!), it was time for Mango to grow from being just a pets and pet care blog to something more interesting.
Mango didn’t get a birthday cake or birthday donuts, but Mango did get a face lift. At three years old, Mango was looking old beyond her years! Oh dear, that was just a confession. Yes, Mango is a female blog. Please don’t ask me to describe the difference in a female and male blog (unless you are Unique and then well it’s okay to ask).
Mango and Mango’s Corner look forward to many more years being the Mango on the Corner. While Mango is on the Corner being all Mango like, Mango will be partaking of some yummy and delicious sweet Muffins.

One of my all time favorite things to do is writing. I love to write. I love getting paid to write. It’s wonderful to get paid for what you love to do. It’s beyond wonderful… it’s way cool!
I’ve been getting paid to write for about 27 years. I started out at a newspaper. That was back in the days when I actually left the house to go to work. These days I freelance. As much as I loved that first job, I love the way things are today more. I can write and be published anywhere in the world while working from home, and get paid for it.
What’s very cool is that I get paid for writing in a tone that brings readers back for more. I don’t write dry and boring rhetoric, but rather I write with words of wit thrown in here and there. Whether I am writing my own opinion or facts, adding witty words keeps something as mundane as pet topics more interesting.
I enjoy working for myself. I have a great boss! She lets me work when I want to, take off when I want to, and she gives me all the profit she makes to do with as I wish. It’s a wonderful life!
