Tuesday October 7

Well, it ended raining from morning until bedtime last night. I guess that's what happens when it doesn't rain for 3 weeks. It's a bit chilly out today because of the wind.
It's going to be a busy day. I'm off to work in 30 minutes. Immediately followed by taking Heather to math tutoring. My daughter took an out of town painting job so that leaves me taking Allen to the dentist this afternoon too. Then, mom's usual trip to the doctor and bowling this evening. I really begin to despise Tuesdays! I love bowling, it's the rest of it that I don't like.

I didn't do much with gather yesterday...uploaded some photos since my video wouldn't go through.
I did however do another squidoo lens. At the Spooky celebration Ralyn announced she is now taking founding consultants for Under The Rainbow Gifts. I ask you to please click on the Under The Rainbow link under my lens to the left and check it out. She's got a good program going with lots of gifts to choose from.

I also won 2 more prizes in the Spooky Celebration! A shelf sitter doll and a set of Infant hair clips. With my order I placed with Bonnie for the scissors and holders, these 2 prizes, the play foam, and pillow that I won earlier these will all be great help with my Christmas gifts. There is still tomorrow for the celebration, of which I am presenting my website again from 8-9 pm, right before the last drawing and grand prize draw! Watch for links in tomorrow's blog.

Have a good day everyone,
Marsha

Monday October 6

Good Morning! After so many days of just about perfect weather, it's raining this morning. I'm sure we need it, it's been almost a month since it's rained.
I don't believe there is a thing on my planner outside of work today! I may get to take Heather to math tutoring today instead of tomorrow because Allen has a dentist appt. tomorrow afternoon.

I went ahead last night and added another lens at squidoo. I'm on my trek now of putting in the book reviews to build with. I've added it to the side bar on the left.

For my gather post to share today I have this--- My Mom's 62nd Birthday with Photos
I have videos and photos from our church's 120th anniversary that I will get off of my camera today and on to my computer. I have lots of misc. photos as well. Isn't this fun? I have $150 in amazon collected from gather so far towards my goal of buying the laptop!

I better run...no daughter showing up to take Allen to school and I am having trouble getting him woke up to get dressed and off to school.

Have a glorious day!
Marsha

Sunday October 5

Good Sunday Morning!
The concert at our church last night was nice. I took some photos and videos. I will do more today. I will post the videos on gather as well as do a photo essay.
I look forward to the dinner after church today.
Once home I want to concentrate of getting my house back in to order. With being busy and worrying about getting things looked through for the yard sale I've let other things slide.

I tried to play some winster this morning but the site is down for maintenance. All I got to do yesterday was log in and get my 300 spins. The good thing is as a paid member you don't lose the spins that you don't use each day so when I log in later today I should have 600 spins. At least that is what another member told me.

Today I have my weekly Mail Call post to share with you from gather. I did pretty well this week including getting in another $50 amazon card from gather! Mail Call! Week of September 28

Guess I better start waking up kids for church to make sure we are there early enough to get our back pews.

Have a blessed day,
Marsha

Saturday October 4

Well, the yard sale went...and went as usual too. Lots of work for very little money. We only sold $19 total between all of us. It was nice to get out among other people, just needed to make more than that.
I bought some school texts for .25 each that I will place on homeschoolbuy...hopefully they will sell, this kind has before.

I'm in the Spooky Celebration right now and it's sad that there is barely anyone else in there. I present my website at 3 pm central time today and again at 8 pm Wednesday evening. I hope i can get a few orders.

I'm getting ready to do my freebies post over at gather, but today I will share part 3 of my Cosmosphere photo essay. Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Center--Photo Essay 3

I'm going to head out of here now. I have my party time to present, then the activity to do...get a quick bath...I have chicken in the crockpot, but not sure what else we will have with it. We have the gospel singers coming to church this evening to celebrate our 120th anniversary...so I need to see what else I can get done on the computer.
Have a great rest of the day!
Marsha

Friday October 3

Good Morning!
I forgot I don't get this Friday off as it's my mom's payday so I will be running with her for about 4 hours.
I have some cross magnet materials to work on while taking her around. They will be put with my other crafts in the yard sale tomorrow. I also thought of an idea yesterday of making some magnets and bookmarks to try to sell as well. I will be working on those once home, and worked on them last night too.

I built 2 more squidoo lenses yesterday, so there are now 5 new ones on the list to the left. I hope you will check them out. I am still a long ways from the 50 needed to be a giant squid, but I am happy with what I am getting done.

Today's gather post I am sharing is Part 2 from the Cosmosphere. Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Center--Photo Essay 2

I hope you have a great day! The weather here is still nice and hopefully will hold out through the yard sale tomorrow. The mornings are chilly but not too bad.

Thursday October 2

Good morning!
I reached my cashout with winster this morning for a $5 amazon. Now to see how long it takes to get to the next million to see if I want to continue with the fun of playing. I will add the amazon to what I am saving for a laptop.

I have to be to work in 30 minutes...then the usual Thursday after work...taking Heather to math tutoring and then my mom to the doctor.

I built 3 more lenses over at squidoo yesterday but haven't added them to the side bar here yet. I might get to that later today.

I got my 1st photo essay in on the Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Center at gather yesterday. Will get the 2nd one in today and the 3rd tomorrow.
Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Center--Photo Essay 1

I will be participating in the Under the Rainbow Spooky Celebration this coming Saturday, and then on Wednesday. I will give more information on that tomorrow.
We also are still trying to get a little bit together here and there for the yard sale on Saturday. As cool as the mornings are I really don't look forward to setting up shortly after 6 am, but hopefully we can sell a few things.

Guess I better get ready for work...have a great day!

Wednesday October 1

Here is it October 1, and the world didn't end. In case you are wondering, someone, or some church was passing out flyers to the children on the school playgrounds last week stating that September 30 was the last day on earth. I have to day I'm glad I have more time here.
It's a beautiful day out. Work went well. I made a little trip to the grocery store after work. The kids have Awanas this evening. It's also the monthly healing service at our church this evening. I should go while the kids are at Awanas.

The only posts I've mostly been doing on gather lately are my daily Investing for the Future from the calendar by Larry Burkett. I've put in some photos here and there, but mostly I've been concentrating on squidoo. I plan on building some more lenses today. I got an inspiration in a forum post stating about the holidays being around the corner so to build build build.

I hope you will take another look at my lenses over to the left, and as I get more done I will come in and add them to the list.

Have a great day!

Marsha
