Thursday July 10

Good Morning!
I slept in until 9:30..I've been busy with housework and computering ever since.
I have to take my son to an appt. at 1 pm and take him to work at 5 pm. Other than that the only other place I should have to go today is to the closing of the Bible school the grandkids have been attending this week. That will be nice. They are even serving us supper.

Yesterday I got notice that Squidoo Locked my Mycoolcontests lens
I really don't know why! I have other lenses that are promoting programs and they are fine (unless squidoo just hasn't gotten to those yet.) What I need to do is get my book reviews lenses made.

I almost can't believe that it's Friday already. It's been such a busy week. I still have lots to get moved, mostly books. I am still working on the dish scrubbie orders too.

Here's to a great start to your weekend!

Thursday July 9

Good Morning!
I didn't get my blog written yesterday morning before the wireless went haywire and wouldn't let me access any sites. I think I have it figured out...unplug the wireless router, plug it back in, have access again. It's a pain but it works.

My time is so limited online right now so I don't have time for it not to be working when I do have time to sit here. I am still in the process of moving and putting stuff away among other things like taking others to work and home, others to the doctor, or the store etc.

I don't really have anything to share today. I am still working on the order for 10 dish scrubbies. Then my friend also wants 10. I need to get busier on all of those!

I am off the computer for a bit now to unpack some of the boxes I brought 2 days ago so that I can go fill my trunk with more to bring over. This is one heck of a way to get rerganized LOL

Have a great day,
Marsha

Tuesday July 7

Good Morning!
I slept in just a bit this morning but have been productive since getting up.
I walked next door to the school ad center to have paperwork filled out for my food stamps, then walked back home and got started trying to get my life organized again!

I just posted my June Earning Stats post on gather. I am sure hoping for a LOT more in July...and I won't have that little paycheck as that was my final one.

I've been getting some of my business cards printed out this morning...I've been cutting out coupons....and working online. Go me!

My son is coming over today on his day off. He's going to see if he can get the Durango going for us. Hopefully it just needs the water pump replaced. It seats more than my Thunderbird so I'm hoping we can get it going again. The next thing he needs to work on is getting the heater working in my car before winter.

I got a good start yesterday on the dish scrubbie order. My friend in town also wants 10 as well. We had trouble staying online yesterday with the wireless so I didn't get much done online. I did pull out the prayer shawl I had been working on and completed it. This way, once I get done with the dish scrubbie orders I can then work on completing the crochet quilt. I bought pins and a pin cushion yesterday too. I need to find a place where I can set up my sewing machine and leave it out to work each day on the quilt I am sewing as well.

Think I can get my act back together? I'm praying I can!

Have a spectacular day.
Marsha

Monday July 6

Good Morning!
I got up early, put away some more stuff from camp, washed dishes, took a shower and now I am on the computer. Soon enough though, I am off and running because today is my son's payday.

I didn't end up on the computer too much yesterday...in fact I don't even think that I opened my email at all. I sat outside in the cooler weather a lot working on that blanket I started putting together at camp.

I just got an order for 12 dish scrubbies! Now, it's through the craft mall, so my profit goes to pay for my hosting until the year is paid, but that's ok :) I hope this is a good sign that I can actually get back to business!

I hope to get quite a few things posted to gather today to share here tomorrow :)
For now, I am off and running for the day :)
Have a great one!
Marsha

Sunday July 5

Good afternoon!
We got in from camp Friday after supper...then we had a birthday party for my grandson.
It was a nice week away from it all...and in the learning of the Word. I was happy to get home.
I was able to access the internet from camp (but not from our cabin). However, there was little time to actually get away to be online around all the activities so I didn't do my blog.

I have lots of photos and videos from camp to share on gather. I also still have most all the stuff from Bible school the week before to share.

I hope you all had a good 4th of July holiday. We cooked and swam all day. Family members were in and out all day eating and swimming. We watching the fireworks from the fairgrounds, and then still had homemade ice cream after those were over. It was a long day, but a great day with family.

I got my Our Unschooling Journey 3 squidoo lens updated for the week this morning.
I went and picked up my mail for the week from my mom's yesterday and got my Mail Call! Week of June 28 post done on gather too.

I'm going to do my best to get myself back into the routine that I need to be in for myself. I was able to get a lot of my coupons organized while at camp...I need to keep that up! I also got started on a crocheted quilt blanket. I need to work on crafts each day also.

We are supposed to be having our church picnic this afternoon. I want to go, but it's all cloud covered outside, raining off and on, and chilly in the wind. I think we will end up staying home and eating what I bought to take to the picnic.

Until tomorrow...have a blessed Sunday!
Marsha

Saturday June 27

Good Late afternoon.
I couldn't get this to open for me all morning. I wouldn't normally post this late in the day but I know I won't be posting tomorrow as we are Leaving for Family Camp Tomorrow. I'm not sure if I will be allowed to get online at camp or not.

Today was the $1.10 sale day at the Goodwill store on all donated clothes. We shopped..I am happy as I was able to get some things for myself for a change. I just need my mom to add up how much I owe her.

I just posted my Mail Call! Week of June 21 on gather. I sure didn't get much in this past week. I have been sending for things again. I'm still waiting on a prize pack from gather too.

Well, back to sorting and packing for camp...and to get supper too! Have a great remainder of the weekend. If you don't hear from me for awhile it's because of no internet access at camp.

Friday June 26

Good Afternoon. I have to say that today. I woke up early this morning just to watch the Michael Jackson tributes. Then I was off taking care of my food stamp case...then to the cable office to return equipment and downgrade my account. (something I should have done 3 months ago)

Tonight is the last night for Bible school. Sunday the kids are supposed to come to church and sing some of their songs and wear the pirate wear they've been making in crafts. I hope most are able to come.

We are in no way prepared for going to family camp on Sunday. I have nothing packed. I bought the bug spray and the sun tan lotion. Yesterday I bought us drinks and snacks to take with us. That is as far as I've gotten.

Not sure what else to say today so I will close for now and see if I can get something good listed tomorrow morning.

Have a great start to the weekend,
Marsha

Thursday June 25

Good Morning!
Once again I didn't get a blog post done yesterday. I got busy again in the morning and didn't realize until late that I didn't get it done.
We went to Alltel yesterday and Steve added me to his family plan so YAY!! I have a cell phone now. I feel so much better having one so I have communication when I am out and about.
One of the first things I did was sign up with youdata.com!! They pay out weekly no matter how much you make which is awesome, and every penny counts. I earned .61 just yesterday. I hope you will join me there.

Bible school is going well. Not the best week for me to be gone every evening, but I guess that's how it goes. I really need to get the basement cleaned and organized and things packed to move. I'm not having much luck getting anything done. For one things its muggy hot in the basement. Another thing is just time. No one allows me a day to just stay home and get anything done. When I am home, on the computer is the only place I want to be, trying to earn money.

I am going to attempt to find someone to loan me the $130 I need to keep the cable on and then downgrade my services. I just can't see leaving my mom next week and her not being able to even watch her soap operas.

I've been twittering here and there some of the things I have for sale. I'm hoping to pull in some orders to help out.
I'm still gathering all I can! And, of course, doing the paid to clicks as I can in hopes of reaching payout. I have banners on the bottom of my blog here on the paid to clicks I do on a regular basis.

My son just called to get his girlfriend to work. I better get going..and hopefully no where else to go until it's time to take my mom to the dr this afternoon and then Bible school tonight.

Have yourself one awesome day!
Marsha

Tuesday June 23

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!
Marsha
