Dealing ... and other stuff

September 6th, 2014 at 02:40 am

Thanks again everyone for your supportive comments on my last post. It's been really difficult the last few days to not call him up to share this or that. I think he's finding the same thing because he emailed me this morning a link to a story about his next door neighbor getting burgled. This is the longest we've gone without talking to each other in 16 months.

Today for some reason was almost harder than Tuesday.

It'll take time I guess.

In other news .. I got a package from Pinecone! This is the very first time I have ever received a product to review. I wish they'd sent me an email or something so I would've known to go to my PO box and get it.

Well, I have it now, and now need to use it. Smile

I cashed out for $25 PayPal from Swagbucks today. Thanks to all the spending I did on moving expenses, new matteress, etc, I had plenty of Swagbucks for both the PayPal and the 5 $5 AGC's.

Thursday night I did one of the things on my list of ten things I want to do - I attended a women's Bible study group. Kind of hard to really call it a group though - only three of us were there. Bit uncomfortable. But maybe it'll grow, and maybe the small size will help me to speak out more .. although one of the ladies has a really strong personality and likes to talk ... I tend to clam up around people like that.

I started writing out my list of ten things, but then realized it was getting pretty long as I added my thoughts/reasons. So I decided to make it into several posts on Bubblews. I'll post links to them when they are all posted. (Speaking of Bubblews, I made $16 since Sept. 1.)

After work today I stopped at a local store called Open Harvest. It is kind of a co op store. Kind of expensive, but it did have some really good deals on some things. I'm considering paying to be a "member" because it is really close to where I live, and has lots of veggie foods I like. It would be $25/year and there are discounts at the store itself, as well as at other stores in town.

I'm thinking about it.

I think Kari has fleas. Probably got them at NEs because they were scratching a good bit before we moved out. What flea meds could I get without seeing a vet that aren't expensive but work well?

    We like Frontline products to get rid of fleas.

    I've been thinking about you this week, wondering how you are doing. It is hard. Just be patient with yourself. Smile
    I think it is really nice that you and NE can still be friends.

    Why only 3 ladies at Bible study? Is that the usual number?

    Thanks Petunia.

    It was the first session of the group - I think it is a brand new thing that the host lady wanted to do. I'd had the idea that it was something that was just restarting for the fall, but I got the idea I was wrong.

    It is an adjustment to end a relationship. Nice area of town you are in. Smile
    I'm impressed with your profits from Bubble News...I may need to look into that a little more.

    Oh, and I have to add that I like to get those Pinecone packages, but they don't ever tell you they are coming.

    Thanks MM.

    CCF - It takes a little time and effort to get to where you are earning more than pennies a day, but I can definitely give you pointers on how to speed it up. (Such as, if you read my posts you will see those who I interact with the most and who actually interact with me as well. Those are good people to start with - reading and commenting on their posts. Bubblews is all about interaction.) Also, I'd be happy to do an introductory post to help get you a few initial followers. Smile

    Laura, I may take you up on that. I'm not going to start on it today, but will you at least put up a link to your recent post, so I can find you on there again. Maybe later today, I'll at least sign up and read your recent posts. I know I read some a few months back. It sure didn't seem much different then posting here!

    Okay, no problem. Smile Just let me know when.

    I have a link to my Bubblews profile page in the Sites I Enjoy list, but here is a link to my most recent post (as of now.)

    It is very much like posting here, except that you get paid for it. Big Grin
