Friday November 14

It's Friday, and it's my payday. I plan to cash my check, pay the cable bill, fill up the gas tank, then come home and pay my mom her rent money. From there I will see what is left and see what I can do with it. It doesn't go far for sure.

I plan to work and work on my email today, although I know the only way to really catch up is to delete and start over. I just get more email in in a day than I can do, even if I did nothing but sit here in my email all day and did nothing else.

Today I am going to share a post of gather that I did showing what I made for my sister-in-law for Christmas. Christmas for my Sister-In-Law

Here's wishing you a great start to the weekend,
Marsha

Thursday November 13

Good morning. A bit warmer this morning as there was no frost or ice on the windshield.
I am getting my gather posts in and my blogs before heading out to take my mom to get her commodity food. Right after that I have to go to work. After work I have to take Heather to her math tutoring. A little later I take my mom to the doctor. And, this evening I have council meeting at church. It means another short day to get things done on the computer.
Tomorrow is my payday, which is good, but also shortens the computer day as I need to get a few bills paid and do a little shopping.

I got the 2 orders of scrubbies made, and got the materials bought to finish the order for 12 scrubbies. So, in between my other stuff and clicking on here I will be working on making scrubbies. In fact, I will take the materials with me while I am running others around.

Here is the book review of WWJD for Kidz that I did on gather. WWJD for Kidz Book Review

Until tomorrow, have a great day, stay safe, and take care,

Wednesday November 12

Good chilly morning to all. It's freezing here right now, but supposed to get up to a high of 55. I don't like scraping ice in the morning. And, it appears the thermostat has now gone out in the van, and it jumps to 200 degrees within driving a block and the heater or defroster never does get warm. It shouldn't be the heater core, as we replaced that this past February.

I don't have any real plans other than work today. Well, after work I need to go to the bank and cash my Jerky Direct check and head to Wal-Mart to buy netting. I do also need to get this poster of mom's that I sold wrapped and taken to the post office to mail.

Today I will share my The Vision Board book review on gather. The Vision Board Book Review Any views help me to earn more points on gather. I am currently just under 500 pts away from my next $50 in Amazon.

Have a great day...I'm off to use up some of my winster spins.

Tuesday November 11

Good Morning to my friends.
I am not at work. Jasmine complained of a sore throat and headache yesterday, then cried all night. I took her to the doctor this morning and she has strep. I'm waiting now for the girls to go to school so I can go back to bed for a bit before taking Heather to her math tutoring.

We shopped at Aldi's on the way home. I have chicken in the crockpot. Once cooked I will separate it into 3 meals. Freeze 2 portions and then add carrots and chicken gravy for tonight and serve is over some seasoned potatoes that we bought.

Gosh darn it...tried to go to the bank today and found it closed...well Happy Verteran's Day then! It also means no mail, and I just tried to call the Health dept. to change an appt and they are also closed. Hhhmmm you think that also means that the probation office is closed? That is where I take Heather for math tutoring. Nope, just called and they are closed. woo hoo! take that out of today's schedule.
I do still have to take my mom to her dr appt and then I have my bowling league tonight.

Ok, what I am sharing from gather today is my photo post on Jump Rope for Heart. It was fun. Jump Rope for Heart 2008 Photos

Have a good day,
Marsha

Monday November 10

Good morning. Looks like the chilly weather is here to stay. No wind today, which is good, it's the wind that chills me to the bone.
My son got over and would you believe all that was wrong with the van was the lug nuts on that one tire were so loose it was about to fall off?? Well, there is something wrong with a bracket to the chasse, but he says that shouldn't fall apart soon, so I can keep praying and keep saving to get something else to drive. I'm so thankful that's all it was and I have transportation again for the time being.

Today starts a busy week. There are extra dr. appts. this week starting with my mom's foot dr appt today. All I can do is "grin and bear it" and get done what I can on the computer when I can.

I built a new squidoo lens yesterday. This one is a book review of WWJD for Kidz. I hope you will take a look. WWJD For Kidz Book Review

Today I am sharing a photo essay I did on gather of the fall trees in the morning sunlight. I hope you will take a peek at it as well. Fall Trees Photo Essay

Until tomorrow, have a glorious day!

Sunday November 9

Good Morning to all.
My daughter got Allen to church for his communion class, that made me breathe a sigh of relief as he is almost done with the class. We will all try to figure out someway to get to church for next week.

I guess today's plan mostly consist of doing what I can on the computer and working on this order of 10 dish scrubbies. When I get these made I got another order for 12 of them.

I finally updated my list of squidoo lens on the left here. (if you are reading this in my yuwie blog, they are on my profile page under interests) I built another book review lens yesterday on The Vision Board. I hope you will check it out as it's an awesome book and in my opinion a must read for all. The Vision Board book review

Here is a photo post to share on gather. It's late pumpkin carving that the kids did. Late Pumpkin Carving Photos

Have a blessed Sunday,
Marsha

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!
Marsha

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!
Marsha

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!
Marsha
