31 Dec 2009 Resolution Time
 |  Category: Shopping  | Tags: , , , , , ,  | Comments off

It’s that time of the year that everyone makes resolutions that they either have no intention of sticking too or they just set their standards too high to be able to keep the resolution. What are your resolutions for 2010? I have just 2. I resolve to find a job this year and find a place to live, other than this camper.

I have officially been unemployed for a year now and the economy has made it very hard to find another. Money has been horribly tight and even with great shopping deals that abound this time of year Christmas shopping, for me, was practically non-existent. I always try to compare shopping prices when I shop online…. it’s just the smart thing to do.

I am really looking forward to becoming employed again and feeling back to normal. I just feel so disconnected with everything right now. I need to get my life back to normal, get a place to live, get our things out of storage and start really living again.

Our daughter, her boyfriend and our 4 grandkids will probably be living with us so we will need a nice sized house along with a freezer so we can stock up on things when they are on sale. I would also love to find a place that has nice, new stainless steel appliances. That would be my dream.

I hope all of my readers have a healthy and prosperous New Year!

20 Dec 2009 Buried
 |  Category: life  | Tags: , ,  | One Comment

We got buried under over 12 inches of snow yesterday and last night. We still have a few snow showers here and there and yesterday we even had thundersnow!

Andi’s boyfriend is going to come over and clear off my car and dig it out. They need to use the car to go to Pennsylvania today. I would do it but my boots are in storage and all I have to wear are a light pair of sneakers!

Hubby is out plowing and has been since early yesterday morning. He did get home about 3:30 am this morning and got a couple hours sleep but he was back at it about 6:30 this morning.

These pictures are a huge difference from the pictures in the post a couple posts down.

03 Dec 2009 Candle review coming soon
 |  Category: family  | Tags: , , ,  | One Comment

Andi and her boyfriend have decided to start making candles and they want to sell them. Soon I’ll be doing a review on them and posting it here. Right now they’re making soy candles and paraffin candles. As the business grows they’ll branch out into beewax candles too.

Andi gave me one to review and I have it burning right now and so far it smells good.

Just stay tuned to hear more and get a link to her site (it’s still being created).
