Monday July 27

Good Afternoon. I don't know now noon crept up on my so fast, but it sure did.

I've been working on my quilt...in fact, I updated My First Quilt lens on squidoo with an update and another photo. I'm anxious to get it done and start on my 2nd one.

My grandson will be over and most likely spend the whole rest of the week here. We have their nephews in town for the week. In fact, short and sweet blog post today as they are wanting to swim and need adult supervision outside.

Have a great Monday,
Marsha

Sunday July 26

Good Morning :)
An early morning phone call woke me up and for some reason I decided to just stay up. I've vaccuumed all the carpets, worked on the computer, started laundry and sewn on my quilt and it's not even 9:30 am. I even walked and bought a Sunday paper.

I got my Mail Call! Week of July 19 in on gather this morning. I didn't get it in last night. We watched A Haunting in Connecticut (I pinned quilt squares while we watched), then we went to Wal-Mart and shopped until after 10 pm.

I updated Our Unschooling Journey 3 squidoo lens yesterday. Not a lot going on school wise in the summer but I can still think of things that she does that are on the educational side.

One more dish scrubbie and I am done with the one lady's order. I've still not rec'd her money order so I need to email her. Then I will start on my friends order. She says she is anxious for me to get them done for her.

The weather is cooler again. We had more rain yesterday. Looking at the 5 day forecast the highs are only in the 80's all week. Very strange for July. I can tell you who won't be in the pool this week....me!

No other real news for today so I will end wishing you a very blessed Sunday :)

Friday July 24

Good Morning.
Since I no longer work it's hard for me to say Thank God It's Friday. (I didn't use to work on Friday's)
Today's plans include taking my middle daughter to an appt at the health dept....taking my son to work this afternoon....eating out with Steve and his family this evening...then taking my son's girlfriend to work....and picking my son up from work shortly after that.
In between I will do a little housework...not much to do today other than clean inthe kitchen. I will be working on my dish scrubbie orders, and I want to work on my quilt to get all my squares pinned to sew tomorrow. I will, of course, be on the computer too.

I got a Bible School Photo Essay put in to gather yesterday. I did my last Investing for the Future post on gather yesterday and I woke up this morning with this feeling of what next. I've been in gather working in my friend feed and then working on post from my group. I'm a little less than 300 points away from my next $25 paypal cash out.
I also updated my Homeschooling lens on squidoo.
I worked on updating my homeschoolbuy auctions.
I even got more of my blujay auctions in rotation at reallysmartdeals.
So...I did do some actual work on this computer yesterday!!

I'm off for today. Here's to an awesome start to your weekend!

Thursday July 23

Good Morning!
Whew! I've been busy this morning....mostly around the house getting little things done. I suppose I will have to pick my son's girlfriend up for work and pick him up when he's off. The only other thing I know of today away from home is to take my mom to her dr. appt.

I met my goal yesterday! I made it through all of my cards in my file box!!! I was fortunate that Steve was able to do most of the running yesterday since he wanted his Durango worked on.
It was also nice that my daughter brought all the grandkids over to swim. The water was still cold after the chilly rainy weather, but it was still fun.

I did some work last night on my quilt. I can't wait until I have the whole top together. I also worked on the dish scrubbies order. I am working on them while on here this morning too.

Yesterday I updated my Rich Kid Smart Kid squidoo lens. I put in another video on gather from Bible school. Today I posted my last Investing for the Future post on gather. I've posted the entire year now. I guess now I can get some of these other things in that are saved on my computer since I don't have those to type in daily now.

I joined a couple of fun sites yesterday...winspinwin and slots4cash. Just little time wasters that only take a few minutes each day to do both.

Wednesday July 22

Good Morning.
I didn't sleep in quite as late this morning. It's going to be a busy day. Soon I have to leave and get to the courthouse to transfer the tags on my car. I hope that goes ok since I am now insured with Steve and the title and tag both have me and my mom as the owners. This afternoon the kids are coming over to swim, plus I have to take my 18 yr old to the dentist. I don't think there are any plans for the evening other than picking my son up from work when he gets off.

Yesterday I got out my quilt and worked on it some more. I finally have my pattern figured out and a few more times of getting out the sewing machine and I will have the whole top sewn together. However, I need to concentrate of making the other 18 dish scrubbies I have yet to crochet for orders before I work on my own projects. Or, find the time to do both!

I didn't accomplish much online yesterday. I can't get my scanner to work and the way help tells me to get to it through Vista isn't working. ugh!!! I did get a video put into gather with my 2 posts. I am just under 500 pts away from cashing out for another $25 in paypal. I didn't get anything done on squidoo yesterday. My goal today is to make it through all the file cards in my box. That is the goal every day but with the craziness of moving and then running everyone around all day it's not been done for a long time.

I will quit for now and get busy on all my projects. Have a great Wednesday!

Monday July 20

Good Afternoon!
I've already been on the run this morning. I took the laptop and wrote up my 2 book reviews though while I waited. I also got my Walgreens shopping done for the week.
Yesterday we went to Office Max. I got some good deals on school supplies and we took advantage of getting the reusable bag and then getting an additional 15% off our purchases using it. Steve got a new wireless router for here at the house and a flash drive with good discounts.

I did my update at Our Unschooling Journey 3 squidoo lens yesterday. I didn't get to it on Saturday. I also got my Mail Call! Week of July 12 post on gather yesterday. Usually a Saturday post, but Saturday turned in to a day that I had very little time online.

I still have more running around to do this afternoon but right now I am going to get some packages ready for the mail.

Have a great day!
Marsha

Saturday July 18

Good Morning!
Yesterday I started out the morning leaving to take my son to court. I then got the title to my car finally. I wasn't home long when my mom called wanting to go back to the dr. Again, not home long before it was time to take my son to an appt. then to work. By that time I realized I hadn't written my blog but it was later in the afternoon.

I got an order for 10 more dish scrubbies yesterday. This is in addition to the 10 I need to get done for my friend here in town. I will need to make a trip to Wal-Mart for materials. The first order has been done for days but so far there is still no invoice in my craft mall account so that I know where to send it to. I'm feeling bad...I like to be prompt with sending out orders.
Speaking of that...I also got an order on blujay yesterday too. It's for something that's in a box I haven't gotten moved over here yet. That means that while I am out today a trip to my mom's and bring more things is also in order.

Gathers pages are loading so slow since the upgrade Thursday evening. I would think it's the wireless connection except that all other pages are loading fine. I did get my 2 posts done yesterday as well as put in another video from our Bible school. I did a lot of commenting despite the slow loading pages.

I updated 2 lens on squidoo yesterday.. My Coupon/Refund Story and Kansas--Our First Lapbook.

We've not been able to swim since Tuesday because of the rains. I'm hoping it stays clear today so we can get in. I started doing exercises in the water and I think they were doing me some good.

Guess I better grab my shower and get my own running done before someone calls for me to take them places. I also want to get the sewing machine out and work a little on my quilt.

Have yourself one great Saturday!
Marsha

Thursday July 16

Good Morning.
It's almost afternoon. My day started off early because it's my mom's commodity food day. Then she needed to go to the grocery store and dollar store too.

I will have to take my mom to the dr. later today, otherwise I've not heard from my son on their work schedules. They should let me know them ahead though instead of calling me 30 minutes before their work time to pick them up.

I got a little busy yesterday on here. I posted Allen's 8th Birthday Photos on gather.
I updated My First Quilt Lens with text update and photos. I also added a photo to Our Unschooling Journey 3 lens.

I am to be cleaning out the storage cabinets down here in the basement today so that we can take them out for the waterproofing. I guess I better stop my online stuff for a moment and get that done.

Have a good Thursday!
Marsha

Wednesday July 15

Good Morning!
Sewing club yesterday was great as usual. I need to have all my squares sewn together before next month's meeting so they can show me how to pin and tie it.
I had massive running around to do for a couple hours in the heat after sewing club. The evening was good...swimming,leftovers for supper, then to Bogey's for shakes, then we watched a movie before bed.

I didn't get much at done online yesterday. I will get more done today. I have photos I took yesterday to get in to a couple squidoo lenses to update those.

For now I am off and running to take my son to an appointment. I'm going to take my crocheted quilt blanket to work on while I am there. And....I did it again...didn't finish this before I left.

I have these days every day LOL
Have a good one,
Marsha

Monday July 13

Good Morning!
I slept in later than I wanted but have been busy ever since between house work and computer work. Oops, started writing this then ended up going back to hanging up all the clothes.

I did some Walgreens shopping again finally and posted it to gather Walgreens Shopping 7/12/09
This morning I also got in my Cover Girl Lipstain Review as well.
If you follow me on twitter you noticed that yesterday I also got a few of my lenses updated. I hope to stay busy on squidoo and really need to get my other 2 book review lenses done.

So far it's a good Monday of getting things done. All that I know that I have to do today is get my mom's water bill paid for her, pick up my son's girlfriend and take her to work, and pick up my son and take him home from work.
Tomorrow is a busy day and I doubt I will be posting here. It's sewing club at church from 10-3 followed by getting my son from work and taking my mom to the dr.

See how my days are? I stopped typing on this again and went up and washed dishes and put supper in the crockpot. Sheesh LOL

Guess that means I better close this for the day and actually post it this time!

Stay cool!
Marsha
