Happy Valentines Day 2009

Good Morning!

Glitter Graphics @ SweetComments.net



The weather is so much nicer today than yesterday for sure. The clouds and wind have disappeared.
Any plans for Valentine's Day? Steve is taking me out for supper tonight. My middle daughter is fixing chicken enchiladas for her boyfriend and the rest of the family for supper. I have a card and gifts for Steve, and goody bags made up for gifts for the rest of the family. It should be a great day :)

Happy Valentines Day to all my friends!

Friday February 13

oh oh Friday the 13th!
I'm not having luck with the van I bought, I know that. It had to be towed in to their shop this morning as when I came out of my church meeting last night something was wrong in the ignition and it wouldn't start. You can read my post this morning at gather on it if interested: Just My Dumb Luck

I've not done anything much with squidoo this week, I've just been away from home more than here, other than sleeping this week.
In fact, not much housework has been done too. I think, though, I will mostly be online today and work on other things tomorrow after I have had a chance to catch up some online. I do have to go out today when my granddaughter gets her shots...momma can't do shot time.

Thursday February 12

Good morning. This week has been busy busy busy. Today in no different.
I took my grandson to school. I am about to head out to pick up my daughter's commodity food. I have to get to pay the car insurance and then to the court house to turn in the title and transfer the tag. I've decided to keep the van. I got some suggestions on how to get the knocking in the motor lower....and despite the fact that it quits a few times now and then when you put it in gear, at least it is getting us where we need to go. This afternoon I have to take my mom to her dr appt, then make a trip to buy the rebate stuff at Walgreens. This evening I have church council meeting.
I can happily say that other than maybe taking my grandson to school tomorrow morning, I shouldn't have any other places to go tomorrow!

For today, the other other thing I want to share is this announcement on the upcoming Spring Fling Celebration at Under the Rainbow....

Wednesday February 11

Good Morning. The weather took a turn from yesterday. Now they are saying snow this morning, but still a high in the 50's so it will melt soon away. Yesterday was just gorgeous..it's hit just over 70, and with a slight breeze. Jasmine and I walked to the grocery store and to the dollar store. On the way home I stopped at a small used car garage and asked what he could sell me for the $500 I had in my wallet. I came home with a 1986 Safari van. I wrote up an article on gather about it, asking opinions on whether I should keep it or take it back. I got mixed opinions for sure...some say congrats, some say good deal for the money, others say take it back, or it can't be worth anything for so little money. I hope you will take a look at the article and also give me your opinion. The Van that I Bought

I was disappointed this morning to find that I had only made $1.52 for December with squidoo. I think I know why though....I don't know when, but they changed it where it didn't automatically set you to all cash, while building the lens you had to go in and mark that. I didn't discover it until about 20 lenses later...they are all set for cash now. I got so busy walking to the store, then buying a van, then bowling in the evening that I barely did anything online yesterday.
I'm so tired this morning that after I type this I am going back to bed for a bit.

Jasmine is excited that I will be able to take her to Awana's this evening. My oldest daughter needs a ride to take care of some medical card stuff. Heather has a dr. appt, this afternoon. It will be another busy day with little time on the computer!

So, I bid you adeau for today,
Marsha

Tuesday February 10

Good Morning. Weather changed again showing a high of 67 for today...50's Wednesday and Thursday and a high of 40 for Friday and Saturday. They have taken the rain and snow out of the forecast.

Tuesday is my busy day with it being bowling night. I just got finished getting a roast and veggies in the crockpot for supper tonight. I need to get my bath. I need to try to get to the dollar store today and to the bank to cash my Jerky Direct commission check. I may take Jasmine and walk to the dollar store since it's supposed to be nice outside.

Here is a photo essay type post I did on gather on our bbq in February. BBQ in February--in Kansas

Yesterday I updated my Power Rangers squidoo lens. I didn't even realize how boring it really was. I added a featured lenses module as well as 3 photos to spice it up a bit. Power Rangers

Well, I am off to get some other things done (like going through my gather group and email) I am sending back the wireless cards that I bought from amazon and didn't need. That will give me the credit back into my account towards the laptop.

Have an awesome Tuesday!
Marsha

Monday February 9

Good morning! We got that rain and now wind with it, although the high is still supposed to be 64 today. It drops to the 50's tomorrow, but we are to have snow by Wednesday.
I am in hopes of getting my federal income tax refund in the mail today....the check in site states it was to be mailed February 6. If it does come then I want to make my trip to Wal Mart, pay the cable bill, pay rent to my mom, put money into savings and then see how much is possibly left to buy a running vehicle. There won't be much left.

I did my cleaning before getting on the computer, then I've spend the last 2 hours working on clearing posts in my own group on gather.
Here is my weekly mail call post: Mail Call! Week of February 1

Not sure right now which of my squidoo lenses will get updated today, but I am heading to do that next. I don't even know which one to feature today. I think I will do Sample Gal as it's only gotten like 2 views since I built it. Sample Gal

Have a great day!

Sunday February 8

Good Morning. The winter weather is moving in starting today. I need to get to the store asap before the cold rain starts sometime after noon.
I slept in this morning. It's nice, but at the same time the time just goes by so fast as it is to stay in bed longer. And, I will still take a nap this afternoon!

Here is a video from February 6 that I posted on gather:



Yesterday I updated our unschooling journal squidoo lens, and built my 48th lens! This one is called Jasmine's Lapbooks and will be updated with each one that she makes. I wonder what she will decide to make one on this week? The one on the lens is on the Oklahoma Octopus. Jasmine's Lapbooks

No real plans today other than the shopping. I still have quite a bit of material to get cut into quilt squares. I need to do all I can on gather and try to get caught up on my email notices there. It's hard as there are so many things that I do online.

Until tomorrow, have a blessed Sunday,
Marsha
