Saturday...or Sunday??

Guess I was having too much fun to notice Saturday came and went without my knowledge, but all of the sudden it's Sunday again! Wonder what else I forgot? Just no telling!

I think that one of the reasons that I don't get my posting done on the right day... is because I seem to wait until it's very, very late....or very, very early (depending on the hours you keep). I have no definite time set aside to do my posting. I might be up at 5:00 in the morning or just going to bed at 3:00 a.m. One of the perks of not working for someone else anymore.

And for those of you that think it's because I drink too much coffee...I can truly say that it's not. I can drink coffee and go straight to bed, but it never keeps me up. I just don't like going to bed! Never have, even as a child! Being single and being an adult (supposedly) does have several perks... I eat when I want and what I want, stay up as long as I want, sleep when I want (or don't want) and for the most part, waste my time as I want...not someone else, ya know? If other folks have a problem with that, it's their problem and not mine.

I spent the first part of my life trying to be what others wanted me to be...and I have reached the point that I feel I have earned the right to be myself! I know some can relate to that, and others never will! Get over it...and have some coffee on me! Then maybe you should go to bed...

Friday...

Once again it's that magic day that most of the people with jobs seem to look forward to...the symbolic end of the work week. For those of us that work at home on the Internet, Friday has a different meaning. Friday is the day for adding up the totals for the week to see if I made any profits...sometimes yes, sometimes no.

Holiday time all businesses seem to slow down, even work-at- home business. However, there are exceptions to all rules and this year I seem to have found one...or should I say two? I can't say enough about e2ePay and 10DollarsWonder. Fast moving and they both seem to be increasing in membership. I have to admit both surprise and pleasure at the way both of these programs are working. I wish that there were more like this around.

Tomorrow I think I'll start taking down the Christmas decorations, since the weather here is almost Spring-like in nature anyway. Hard to believe that another year is nearly gone...but it is!

Well....coffee time for me! You're welcome to join me in a cup, as always! OK? OK...

Thursday notes...

For those of you that did not get on the start of E2Epay on the 26th, you are really missing out on all the fun! This program is really rocking and cycling at a fast and furious pace! No reason not to get in on all the fun, especially with the "claim a free position". You just go join for free, click on the "claim my free position" link at the top, and enjoy the ride! Fun, fun, fun!!

You might want to take a look at 10DollarsWonder while you are at it...as it has been moving pretty quickly for me as well!

More later! Coffee time!

Late Again...

I couldn't write anything yesterday cause I was at my baby Sister's house for Christmas dinner. Every year she and her husband ask me and most years I decline, but yesterday I went. I'm glad I did! They have a very pleasant house, very nicely decorated...the kind that makes you feel right at home when you go in.

Anyway, it was a nice visit with great food and I really enjoyed it immensely. I met one of my sister's friends who is in business for herself, and who is writing a book! An interesting lady and enjoyable to talk to. You have to respect anyone that makes the commitment to a task last like that.

As I pulled up to my Mother's house that evening, I saw that my oldest was waiting , along with my granddaughter. So they came in and spent the evening having a nice talk and exchanging gifts. All in all a very full day! Plenty of food, lots of coffee, and new friends! What else could you ask for?

Beautiful day today and more of the same predicted for tomorrow. It's times like this I really like living in the south! I have to admit that I am glad the holidays are almost over...I'm ready for some real peace and quiet again!

Think I'll have another cup of coffee and hit the hay! Sleep well, everyone...and I'll see ya on the flip side!

Christmas Eve...

I wanted to take this opportunity to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas.....and a Happy New Year! I know that now days it's not really politically correct to say that, but I don't care. Being a country boy, that's what I've always said and that's what I'll always say!

Remember above all else that there is a truly important reason for this season. We all should never forget that. I should also remind us all that children are very important this time of year....even more so than the rest of the year. Take care of them, watch over them, and let them know that you love them every day...OK? OK!

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and please, please be safe!

Quiet Sunday...

Nice get-together last night at Mom's...everything was calm, the little ones (both of 'em) were excited by presents and the tree, and there was not a single arguement and that's always a good thing. Any time you get that many members of the family together for any length of time and not have harsh words, that's a good get-together.

There was one noticeable no show...my first born. After a guarantee that he would be there with my granddaughter and then not show, that's a real disappointment! I try not to be angry about it, but it is very hard. I don't want to tempt Bad Karma, so I am making a real effort, ya know?

Anyway, Mom was happy, the nieces and my sister were all in their typical shining as the providers of the perfect holiday array of snacks and goodies, and I went to bed last night with my typical holiday-type full tummy! All in all, a very good visit!

Winter type weather came in late last night...down in the 30's with the high today reaching about 50 or so. Time to get some fresh coffee, go outside, and see if my garden is ready to call it a season. Want to join me...?

Friday and Saturday Special...

Since I missed Friday (again!) I decided to combine both days into one blog. My days seem to run together more and more anyway, so the idea isn't that far-fetched!

Big doings today at Mom's house...a family get-together. We have a gathering of this sort every holiday, but this year there won't be as many of us. Seems that every year there are fewer and fewer, if you know what I mean. Grand kids growing up and doing their own thing, people living out of state, that sort of thing. The main thing is that most of us get together and help Mom enjoy the season as much as we are able.

I'll be glad when everybody has come and gone...I love seeing them, but the peace and quiet that follows everybody leaving is wonderful.

I'll make some fresh coffee, go sit in the 80 degree sun on the patio, and look forward to the cooler weather that is supposed to come in tonight. Might get into the 30's tonight...which calls for hot coffee for sure!

Back tomorrow, Lord willing!
