Friday August 7

Good Morning!
I've already been out and taken my son's girlfriend to court...home and got myself all ready for the day....and all of today's designated housework is complete! That means that pretty much the rest of the day is mine to accomplish whatever else I see fit.

I just posted on gather My Daughter and Her Boyfriend Got Their Laptops Stolen! The full story is there, but I guess it was pretty wild.
Yesterday I got one of the book review lenses done on squidoo too. Forever By Judy Blume Book Review

I didn't have to take anyone anywhere again yesterday so it was a productive day. We got all of Jasmine's stuff that is moved over here so far up into the bedroom upstairs. I did all of my online stuff. I fixed breakfast for supper which was really good.

Today I have to take Jasmine for shots this afternoon and we will eat out for supper tonight. I wonder where we will go tonight? It's supposed to get up to 101 today and tomorrow so looks like we should be able to get in swimming both days. I sure hope so. It's a good time spent in the pool....plus I do exercises in there.

Off I go for the rest of the day. Here's hoping your weekend starts off great.

Good Morning!
I am at the doctor with my daughter again! This should be the last time on this infection. They have wireless access here that says it's unsecured, but when I try to go to a website it tells me a need a clinic username and password. No one around here knows what that is.

As soon as I am done here I will be taking my son and his girlfriend around to pay bills. In other away from home plans: grocery shopping, taking my mom to her dr. appt, and Bible school this evening.

Bible school went smooth last night for it being the first night. The theme is Veggie Tales, the pirates that don't do anything. The kids enjoy Veggie Tales. I took lots of photos and videos that I will be sharing on gather.

So far they have't turned off my cable, but that will happen very soon. Then I will be relying on this laptop and anywhere I can pick up someone's wireless connection.

I typed the above this morning, not realizing I wouldn't get home until about 1 pm!
The mail already came today and I have to make the $275 somehow before Friday in order to not lose cable. It's not possible at all! I guess I will try twittering some of my items for sale throughout each day, and gather like crazy (however I can't cashout and get paid before then).

For now I am going to post this and wish you a good day. It's so hot, I hope that you are being able to stay cool somehow!

Monday June 22

Good Morning!
I intended to do a blog post yesterday, but once again it was bedtime when I realized I hadn't.

We had a large celebration and carry in dinner at church yesterday to celebrate our retired pastor's 50th year of being ordained. It was really nice. He was brought to tears many times. The food was great. As a congregation each family made a quilt square for him and 2 of the women at church put the quilt together.

After church we all headed to Steve's and spent the day in and around the swimming pool. We got home around supper time.

It's so humid hot! It's really hard to handle. We have storms that come through, then the sun comes out...this has been going on for a couple of weeks. It's horrid!

I've been posting at least 4 things a day on gather and my points are about the same as they have been lately. I have to get busy on doing 2 or 3 updates on squidoo lenses each day. I did a couple on Saturday.

I have to run now and take my son to an appointment and then take him to work. It's Bible school week with our church, so evenings are full each day from 5:45 to 8:45. Jasmine is too old now to attend Bible school so she is going to help with games. I am with the 4th and 5th grade group.

Have a great day and be sure to stay cool if you can!

Thursday June 18

Oh my! I didn't realize until late last night that I didn't get my blog post done in the morning! The Past Two Days Have Been a Whirlwind! (click to read my gather post if interested...I've included a few photos with it)

It's another busy day today! I am getting my coupons worked on while out and about. I will get to work on those more while the girls are at the dentist this afternoon.

It's been so stinking hot with yesterday hitting the triple digits. Not pleasant when you are out in it all day. The morning shower does NO good except to keep you from not stinking the very first place you go! We've been having storms that seem to come in from nowhere...come and go leaving a mess behind.

gather is making some changes to the way you earn points...not that anyone had it figured out before, but now it's more confusing than ever. Seems you will earn the most now by bringing in views from people that are NOT members of gather. They outright do tell us that you will earn very little for viewing others content now. I just hope I can keep posting and earning!

I think I better go take a nap before taking the girls to the dentist. If I don't I will be falling asleep while they are in there!

Have a good Thursday,
Marsha

Monday August 4

Good Morning!
I was right, it was a hot one yesterday! On the way to Bible study the temp thing I see on the way was reading 108º at 6:15 pm! I just drove by there this morning and it is reading 99º. The heat advisory is on until this evening and we will see if the news shows a let up in these high temps.

Today is the first day of school for me and the girls in our homeschooling. Today we will work in The Lord of the Rings curriculum, then mostly just get all of their books and schedules in order.

Here is my weekly article on the freebies that I rec'd.
Freebies--Weel of July 27

Have a blessed day!
