Saturday November 8

Good Morning. So far this morning the wind is down, I sure hope it stays that way, that is what makes me so cold!
My daughter is to pick my mom and me up for grocery shopping sometime before lunch. I'm putting the finishing touches on my grocery list.

I think I got a lot of things done yesterday. I did a lot on yuwie, I posted and posted to gather, I got a lot more coupons cut and filed, I worked on making the dish scrubbies, and I went through just about every paid to click that I belong to. I also got the living room area cleaned and the rug vaccuumed, and the kitchen table all cleared, washed and the rug under the table vaccuumed. I wish that every day could be like Friday, it's just the day that I get the most done.

Today I will share part 2 of the fun in the leaves photos. Fun In The Leaves Part 2 Photos
I did finally get one video to load, maybe there is just something wrong with the Willo one? I will still try it again this morning.

I am off now to get started on what I can before we shop. Have a great Saturday!

Friday November 7

Good Morning.
I slept in this morning and getting a late start on my internet stuff. I started out by trying to load a video to gather...it's at 90% so I don't know yet it if will go in. I tried 4 times yesterday. Maybe if I restart my computer I would have better luck or maybe it's just a problem with gather.

Liz's boyfriend thinks I've thrown a rod in the front end of the van and he's probably right. I clicked my heart out yesterday in my paid to clicks and will do the same today. Plus I got another book listed at homeschoolbuy and will list another today.
I got an order for 10 dish scrubbies, but I can't find the colors that she wants to match her kitchen. I will get them made and hope they are ok, she said to do the best I can.

I've gotten almost all my coupons cut and sorted. I got my grocery list made and I'm on track to get matching coupons for the sale. The store is doing the buy 10 items get $5 additional off your bill and you can do this up to 3 times in one transaction. I work hard to try to buy 30 of the items for $15 additional off plus to have coupons for all 30 items as well.

The download stuck at 90%, but I did share some photos of Willo's fun in the leaves and have photos for a few more photo essays. Guess I will worry about those now. Here is the one I did yesterday. She was having so much fun playing in those leaves. Fun In The Leaves Part 1 Photos

I better get busy doing others things, so until tomorrow, have a safe and happy day.

Thursday November 6

Good morning.
It's gotten chilly outside, and I would guess will stay that way this time.
Something is seriously wrong with my van in the front axle. The van wobbles and there is a loud bumping noise with each turn of the tire. It's pretty scary.
We had someone else pick up Allen and no school or work to worry about tomorrow. However, I'm sure there is no way to fix it and I'm a LONG ways on my paid to clicks from enough money to get something else to drive.

I will ask a favor. If you will checkout my Earning With Marsha lens and see if there are any programs there that you aren't already doing. These are the ones that I do daily. Earn With Marsha
You can also check out my traffic exchange squidoo lens. Most of those also have ways to earn cash along the way as well. Traffic Galore

I did get a photo essay put in yesterday at gather on the trunk or treat that we had at church for Halloween. Trunk or Treat Photos

In other news, I did get some coupon work done yesterday. I also finished up a hotpad and coaster set that I listed at blujay. I worked on sorting through papers on my bookshelf...haven't gotten to the ones on my desk yet. I am gathering recipes that I have printed out to see what I want to try and put the ingredients on my shopping list. Today I will do more of all the same.

Have a glorious day!

Wedesday November 5

It's over and Obama won, which is really what I expected. I guess now we sit back and see if he brings about all this "change" he is promising. Personally I think it's up to the people to change, I'm not sure the government can do it.
Recently I've joined several groups at gather.com that have to do with money, saving money, living a more frugal lifestyle etc. I've been finding the posts to be very informative, encouraging and helpful.

I didn't get much done on the computer yesterday and hope to do a lot on here today. I need to really work at gather, catch up on my yuwie comments etc. I also need to get some much needed housework done as well. The rest of this week won't be so full of appointments. Allen is out of school on Friday so that gives me an opportunity to stay up a bit later Thursday evening and sleep in a bit on Friday.

I sat and got a lot of coupons cut out while we bowled last night. I will be working on getting the rest of them cut and sorted through Friday and getting my shopping list made for Saturday. I really must do a lot better on saving at the grocery store than I have been.

For now I am off to do what I can on here before work. I may skip winster today past logging in since I did cash in for another $5 in amazon yesterday. It almost made me late to work though as I was determined to play until I got that million points LOL

Have a great day!

Election Day 2008

Election Day. Tuesday my busiest day, but it's not like I couldn't have voted ahead. The plan is to drop Heather off at her math tutoring then my mom and I will go vote while she is there.

Normal Tuesday plans: work, Heather to math tutoring, Mom to the doctor, quick supper and off to my bowling league. Add in today the voting, and this evening Jasmine is jumping for Jump Rope for Heart.

I got the photos put in of the kids and grandkids Halloween costumes on gather. I hope you will take a peek. Halloween Costume Photos

I'm heading over to play at winster. I didn't have time yesterday morning and can get to the million points for another $5 amazon to add to my saving for that laptop I am going to buy.

Have a great day and pray for the best choice to be elected to lead our country.

Monday November 3

Morning to all.
Usually Monday's are pretty good days for me. (Good days mean that I don't have to go many places and have a lot of computer time) That is not the case for this Monday. I had to start out the morning by getting my grandson to school as once again my daughter didn't bother to show up to take him. Then I was informed that my son had to be in court. There went all but an hour of my time on here this morning.
It's my mom's social security payday today, so there goes the entire afternoon as I run her around paying bills and such until supper time.

I got the Halloween photos all resized and such to put in to gather yesterday, but it's still not done. So, I don't have a gather post to share today.

I was on that cleaning and organizing thing most of the time I was home yesterday. I am happy to say that all the books that I have up for auction are now all together on a bookshelf versus the boxes they were piled in to. I also took the time to look through them all. I found 3 that were no longer listed. I will get those relisted.

I didn't do anything with squidoo yesterday other than check in a couple of times to approve comments.
In fact, most of the time I was online I spent at yuwie approving friend requests, approving comments and sending comments myself. It's getting funner as I go along, but taking up a lot of my time.

For now I need to get ready for work, so I will bid you all adeau for this day.

Sunday November 2

Good Sunday morning to all!
It looks like the weather is going to be beautiful today.
Yesterday I pulled up all the tomato plants from the garden. They were all but dead. The jalapenos, banana peppers and bell pepper plants are still growing, and I hope the freeze will stay away long enough for what is sprouting to be picked.

I completed my vision board last night, or as complete as it's going to be for now. I will share a photo of it when I am done reading the book and do my book review.

I didn't get the Halloween photos prepared and posted to gather, but I did get my weekly Mail Call post done. Mail Call! Week of October 24

I also built a squidoo lens on crafts as gifts. This lens is to share crafts that I have made as gifts with more to be added as I make more items that I give as gifts. Crafts As Gifts

Part of my vision board are the words CLEAN and ORGANIZED, so I started on that vision last night here in the basement. Once I get this basement cleaned and organized again I have told the kids it will stay that way! Also once I get it done down here I will start working on the mess upstairs. Another picture on my board is a nice kitchen. Mom's kitchen needs a lot of work to be the way that I want a kitchen to be. That will be the first place that I start upstairs.

Time for me to get kids to Sunday school, so until tomorrow, have a blessed day.
