My Dear Grandmother

30 Apr

Talking to Felicia on the phone and she mentioned my grandmother. Today would have been my grandmother’s 111th birthday. Of course, no one is 111 years old. But she did live a very long time. She passed away on Christmas Eve when she was 88 years old. I can’t even imagine being 88 years old.

Anyway, Felicia knows it was my grandmother’s birthday because oddly enough HER grandmother has the same birthday. Except her grandmother is turning 81 this year and is still alive and living in her own home. I think it is wonderful that some people never have to worry about living in a nursing home because they have good health and family who love them and take care of them.

My grandmother did not have to live in a nursing home, either. My Auntie took care of care the last two years of her life and I really admire and respect her for doing that. I hope Auntie gets the same love and care when she gets older, too.

Sterling Silver Jewelry Home Party

13 Nov

More and more people are turning to alternative methods to bring in some more much needed extra income, my one sister has emailed the family, shared her enthusiasm concerning her newest economic adventure with an online company that will assist her it the hosting of a silver jewelry home party. She is going to try it and if she likes it she will consider continuing on with their hostess offerings.

She is a people person and likes to be the social butterfly at all of the important parties and functions in and around town, she has a great network of people that she can draw on and would most likely do real well with a Sterling Silver Jewelry Home Party Company. She loves entertaining and is willing to travel, within reason so this could really be a good opportunity for her, she will have a blast, while helping pay some of the bills that have been building up and need attention quickly.

With AuraStella she will be receiving 30 to 35% commissions off of the retail sales that she turns around and she can earn free jewelry, which she is delighted with that prospect. She is also happy with the benefits package that they offer their hostesses and they have a good start up program for proper training.

Campbell Soup Labels for Schools

16 Oct

My mother just emailed me asking me to turn in all of the Campbell Soup labels that I have been collecting since school let out last summer. My little sister is not doing very well in English and my mother just found out the her English teacher is offering extra credit to her students in trade for these money making soup labels. And since I will be making an appearance on Christmas day I might as well bring along the baggie that is overflowing with these soup cans that I use a lot of,

Schools are really hurting for money as well as most of the other important businesses these days, so I have no problem saving these labels and doing my part in helping in the many fundraising opportunities that they school have to offer. And if my little sister can get some extra credit for my effort, I’m all for it!

New Haircut

26 Sep

I got a new haircut the other day! A lot of my family and family friends like it, but all my friends my age don’t. They all say I look like a guy, haha. Although whether anyone likes it or not I don’t really care all that much! As long as I like it it’s all good. And I do!

Summer Vacation

27 Jul

This summer is half way over already and I’ve not had a summer vacation yet. I still sit around doing the same old, same old. I wish I could go to the beach for a whole week, like we used to do when I was kid. It takes a week away from everything to clear your head and forget all your problems with the real word. Then, when you come back home, those problems seem to be a lots less important and a lot easier to deal with.
