Carmella

My name is Carmella Dunkin, I am a Christian wife and mother to a wonderful husband, and 8 awesome kids. I am even blessed with 5 adorable granddaughters! My husband is Dan, and he is disabled with COPD, arthritis, and severe spinal degeneration. I am also disabled with multiple disabilities, (arthritis, Osgood slaughter disease, bi-polar disorder, just to name a few). We both experience great pain daily, and many days are unable to get out of bed! On top of our own disabilities, we also care for our disabled 19 year old severely autistic son, and our two tween children.

Dan and I are unable to work out in the real world, (for obvious reasons), so we have been forced to make it in the world on our wits and the talents we have between us for the past 8 years. Our talents are many, and together we can achieve a lot. However, in order to achieve anything, we must have customers, and with absolutely no income at all, customers are hard to find!

So, I decided to take my Myspace site that I have had for so long, and let it drum up some much needed customers, before we are living in the streets... LITERALLY!

I will not bore all of you who have not read our story already with the details here. Instead I will let you go to our mold site, and read our story there. You can read about that last 8 years of our lives, and the turmoil that we have gone through here, The Joy Of Hope .

We have both tried to get disability, but our government feels they must lie to deny, rather than help the people who have paid out hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxes and social security payments all their lives. So we had to find odd jobs that we can work, to make a little here, and a little there. So we started doing affiliate work, this can be very profitable, IF you have lots of money to pay out to advertise. Unfortunately, when you have no money, you have no option, so we have made very little there. We did do well while we had advertising funds, however our health required us to move across the Country to an area not so wet, and that took all we had, and now we cannot even pay rent to park our RV anymore!

We are now focusing on web, and graphic design. Graphic art and web design is something we have done together for the last 10 years now. For the most part, we have only designed our own sites, and a couple for friends, there was no real income in it, other than the little we got from affiliate sales for their hosting service.

After moving to the beautiful Pikes Peak mountains of Colorado, we met a couple on an RV group, and got into talking about web design, and SEO content, and how so many web developers charge well over $100.00 per hour, to design a web site. In the conversation we mentioned that we designed our own sites, and that although it is a lot of work, and time involved in graphic and web design, we felt that $100.00+ an hour was just highway robbery! A few days later we received an e-mail from the husband, asking if we would like to start making money doing what we love to do together? Of course we said, and he sent us the following site to create, SAINT Animal Rescue . For those of you who love animals, this is an awesome organization. SAINT rescues animals who are abused, and finds them loving homes. After SAINT, we were asked to create another site for his wife for Christmas. You can see that site here, Barn To Be Wild . This site is really cool. Pat Hall is an awesome artist, and she does work we have never before seen. Pat takes old furniture and gives it new life through her art! Check out her site, it is way cool. Two other sites we have just recently acquired are, Greenhouse Tech , and Mel's Tuba .

Thanks to Pat and Preston Hall, we have now ventured into the web design business, but we do not charge $100.00 per hour to design a web site, in fact, we do not even charge $50.00 per hour! Our fees are so reasonable, even a starving artist or musician can afford to have a web site designed by us! And if you are a non profit organization, we give you even better deals, because we know how hard it is for a non profit to survive these days! Our fees are very reasonable, and can be viewed at Ma and Pa Web Designs . We have a number of package deals available to suit the needs of almost anyone, from starving artist, to big sites with over 500 pages, and non profits too!

So, if you are an artist, or musician and do not already have your own web site, perhaps you would like one designed by Ma and Pa Web Designs. Our prices are right, and our designs are really cool! So why not check us out? You will not only be getting a cool web site, you will also be helping two disabled Americans to support themselves, and their family!

God Bless you all my dear friends!
