Saturday May 30

Good Morning!
Man I could really use a day of rest, but don't see one of those coming until after the neighborhood yard sale on June 6th.
My laptop came in yesterday about supper time so I spent the rest of the evening getting it set up, downloading things etc. I'm so happy to have it!

I got a terrible headache early afternoon. Indications are showing my headaches are being caused by the aspartame in the Crystal Light. Today is day 5 of 8 in the challenge with gather. I won't make it if that is what is causing the headaches. I did have one day without a headache though, so I'm not sure. I can not drink plain water though...yuck! There is a lot of stress right now with getting Jasmine ready for camp, trying to clean, attempting to make some money online and getting ready for this yard sale too.

I built a squidoo lens yesterday called My First Quilt I've been wanting to make a quilt for months...started then nothing. I thought going ahead and making the lens would inspire me to work on it..then I can take pictures along the way and keep updating the lens.

I better run, lots to accomplish yet today before we head to Steve's for the evening...but hey, I have my laptop now so as long as their wireless doesn't screw up (like it often does) I should be able to do some things online.

Have a good Saturday,
Marsha

Friday May 29

Good Morning!
What a long run run, and run some more day I had yesterday. I won't repeat it all here, but if you want to read about it, check out my gather post What a Whirlwind of a Day!!
You can also check out my weekly shopping post if you would like Grocery Shopping 5/28/09

Today I planned to go nowhere! I have clothes mending to do, lots of things on the computer, house cleaning, Jasmine needs to finish her frog lapbook, and we need to finish getting her packed for camp. But, no, my mom has already called down here needing to go to the clinic to pick up some medicine and wants to go back to her chiropractor. (sigh) There is a downfall to having my own transportation agan. I am leaving to do that running as soon as I get this typed up.

I'm almost done with my 1st bottle of water for the day and will fill another on the way out the door. This is for an 8 day challenge on gather to drink 8 glasses of water over 8 days. Today is day 4. If I can make myself keep this up it will not only be beneficial for my health but also my pocketbook not buying so much Dr. Pepper.

I better get a move on, get mom her places and get back home and get serious about what needs to be done around here. Here's to a great start to your weekend!

Thursday May 28

Good Morning, almost afternoon again. I took my oldest daughter to her appointment this morning. They set her up to induce labor June 1 if she doesn't go into labor before then. This afternoon I take my middle daughter for her yearly check up too. And sheesh, I still have to call and make dental apppts. for both Heather and Jasmine.

I uploaded a lot of videos from the Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Center to gather last night while at Steve's house. If you would like to check them out go to my gather video page

I shopped at Walgreens this morning too. I didn't have much cash to spend. I somehow left my camera on and needed new batteries so I figured those were a good thing to use the $5 register rewards I had. I also bought the $1.99 deoderant using a $1 register rewards, then getting another $1 RR for my next trip. Then I used the Walgreens coupon to get the 2 lip cares for $1, using my other $1 RR. I spent $4.75 cash, but only have the $1 RR towards my next shopping. I am very close to cashing out with mypoints.com for a $10 Walgreens which will help me get back in to my Walgreens groove.

I better be off and get some other things done before it's dr. time again. I also have to take my mom to her dr. appt later this afternoon as well as hope to get some grocery shopping in too.

Have a good Thursday,
Marsha

Wednesday May 27

Good Morning!
We had a downpour of rain about supper time last night...looks like it's rained quite a bit during the night. It's a chilly 53 outside right now.

Yesterday ended up being one of those days. My son showed up in the morning for me to drive him around...then he hung around the house all day here. His girlfriend had to use my computer for some research. I pretty much didn't do anything. Cleaning is what I should have been doing!

I ordered my laptop last night!! You can find my gather post with details here.I will even have amazon left and more that is owed to me. I am hoping to find a bookshelf to buy with the rest of it.

No plans today except Jasmine and I will probably be spending the evening at Steve's. The holiday gave him tomorrow off work instead of today. Not sure what we will do...watch a movie probably.
I'm working on laundry now. I need to get the sewing machine out and repair some of Jasmine's that she wants to take to camp. So much to do and so little time....isn't that always the case?

Help me keep my Helen Steiner Rice squidoo lens on the top of my list by clicking over please :P Thanks!

Until tomorrow, have a great day!

Tuesday May 26

Good Morning...almost noon! I am back after taking the long weekend off from blogging.

It was a busy but a nice weekend. Once home I did a lot of posting on gather yesterday once I was home! Here are some... Memorial Day Weekend Photos 2009
Cloud Shots I have loads and loads of videos to share on gather but can't get them to upload from this computer. It's rather upsetting.

I got the 3rd lens in the series of our Unschooling Journey started up over on squidoo. I started it on Saturday but then found out we were going out of town so had to save it until I was back home yesterday.

Today is day 1 of the water challenge I am doing on gather. Almost noon and Ive not even started on drinking that 64 oz...guess I better get on that. I will then do a journal on gather each day for 8 days on how I am doing drinking it and how I feel etc.

Jasmine heads to her first week of Bible camp this next Sunday. We are working on getting her stuff together for that.

I better get going. Seems everyone needs me to take them places today so I am working on the computer in between runs.

Have a great Tuesday!
Marsha
