The numbers in the image here are from the Google Analytics profile for this website this evening (August 20th), for stats from August 21, 2018 through August 20, 2019 – exactly one year. In this past 12 months this site has had 2,780,310 unique page views by 1,500,688 unique visitors.
I am sharing this today because:
1) I am totally depressed about the state of the country, and the world [and my own life] at the moment – and I am trying to cheer myself up (like – “Hey, look how far this message is spreading, in spite of all the distracting chaos; my efforts are making a difference!”) and…
2)… because…. WHAAA! 1.5 Million USERS! In just ONE year!?! That’s amazing! #TheLittleLeadWebsiteThatCould
Hopefully, a potential sponsor of this work will take note and will want to jump on board to help with the next steps (my film, book, Lead-free kitchen product development, etc.) so I can keep doing what I do (while, ideally, also feeding my family!)
Wish me luck.
I’d hate to see all of what I have built in the past three years [nearly exactly three years since the dystopian novel I have been living kicked into high gear in August of 2016] crumble, especially at such a critical juncture. This work (with the help of 1.5 million readers around the globe) is really ready to take off – and make an even bigger difference – and Lead Safe Mama, LLC just needs a boost to make that happen. [Examples: I just – tonight – found the perfect office for Lead Safe Mama HQ – a short walk/bike-ride from my home(!), but don’t have the funds to make it happen — about $600 a month/ $7,200 for the year — it’s on my wish list in case an angel is reading :-); I urgently need to cover a payment to the accountant for the business – $4,000+ (one of the two accountants who helped with the legal case to date); I have to cover recent costs for website development, registration and hosting fees ($500+); I have to cover some recent personal loans for help with legal fees ($10,000+) – and more…]
While the many legal battles have been fought and won in these past three years, the “war” is not yet over – and “the troops” need continued support in this home stretch (sorry fo the mixed metaphor – it’s late!). Hopefully, hubs will edit and correct with something better! [Ed. – nope; you’re on your own with that one, darling! lol 😉] A legal victory against the bad actors (with restitution for the damage caused) is possibly as far out as two years away — the time it will take for our case [suing the State of Oregon in Federal court for the multiple civil rights violations against me during this time] to wind through the court system — and I need to stay on track and keep going until that happens.
So please if you can… Hire Me! or Chip In! Or share my posts a bunch, that’s free! 🙂
Thanks for being here.
Thanks for reading and sharing my post (yes I say that with every post, but I truly mean it!)
I hope you are surviving the “Back To School” and “Let’s get ready for Halloween and Thanksgiving” crunch!
