Rain again.. our lakes should be getting up to the levels they need to be… I know the one I showed you yesterday in my yard is back up after it had receded a little…

What a day………not over yet.

Thursday, May 21st, 2009

We are selling a book on Amazon… It has sold 5 copy’s in two months… that is not to bad.. But can you imagine what it might sell if they let me put a picture on the first page. Instead of holding my hand behind my back to pay for something I don’t need… so I can have the picture when you first hit search.  It does not say there are four images when you click the title of the book and go to the second page… There you find all kinds of info… Not only does Amazon charge more to sell this book  a flat fee of 5.99 . Where the other two places I sell this book don’t charge a 1/3 of that. And they show the picture up front.. one for a small fee another for free… I moved away from one store as the monthly price for my store was getting to high as I was placing over 1000 books on line… The new store I sell at is harder for people to find but if I work hard and tell everyone I see about it the price is right.. Its free…. Now sense no one reads these blogs or write on it if they do they might not find out where they are…. or who… On my book store I sell more than books, I have , leapPad machines, several kind.. I will be offering books and cartridge’s soon. I have music, talking books, all these things will be coming to the store… Lots of people have many stores for each item… Can’t do that… I do have two… one for all the things I mentioned and one for the shot glasses  you can get to all these things by going to  http://readerwave.com   and click on the image that you want to get to… I made it a short cut on my computer.. you might want to try that… I am also on twitter under readerwave. and shotglassheaven… I spend more time on readerwave… I try to keep up with the authors, and book sellers… When I finish reading a book I review it here and tell them on here and there that I have reviewed and sometimes they write notes on here.. Which is very nice of them… Many of you know I am a fan of Debbie Macomber I will be seeing her on the 26th… God willing and the creek don’t rise… and both are a possibility… LOL…. Oh another thing I will be selling at my store will be special designed flip flops….

These are like the ones I will sell

DSC04142We are on our 4th day of rain.. Our squash blooms are starting to fall off… We have two squash started to grow.. Lots more blooms.. Tomatoes we have lots of them growing…

We have had a set back with mother but I think things are better today.. Plans for the next week are the same… So Far…  Went to doctor today for blood work to make sure the new meds are doing ok…

Talked to lady making the flip flops today… One order was not sure so she called to make sure she had it right. Then I told her to bring me more… So next week I will put them on line… And hopefully have a good sale…. Have shot glasses added to http://shotglassheaven.com  and more to go in… Took pictures of books that I will put into http://readerwave.com. And as always I have my author signed new book,”Waiting for Agnes” on three different sights at three different prices… Have you heard of Coral Castle in Homestead, Florida? Now you can read about the building of it and how Ed used the ways of the ancient Pyramid build this… And how he told no one before he died. So everything is still a secret. What a great book.

No Banana for Breckfast

Tuesday, May 19th, 2009

What a way to start the day.. Yes things are great today…………..I will do my best………….

We always have banana’s except when we don’t go to the store the day before.  Its another yucky day… 56 when we woke up… Its May…  Today I am going to do laundry and take pictures… putting all my hard cover books in my store…. I am not going back to the flee market this season… Will start again in the fall…. If there is a book you want let me know..by phone or email.. or comment on here…

This week we are having company (Mom says she’s not company she has been here more than three times). Coming up from South Florida.. we use to work together, before that she was my dance teacher. We have been Buddy’s for almost 10yrs… She is the third longest friend I have had… 1st was Berta who I have known sense high school and then there is Susie who I have known sense my oldest daughter and her son were in kindergarten together… We all live in different places now… One in North Carolina, one in Kentucky, one in South Florida and me here in North Florida….

The weather is cold and has my fingers stiff this morning… Maybe that is what is wrong with Twitter.. I write and the words come up a few seconds later instead of right away…   Oh we have lots of tomatoes and squash on our plants well we have tomatoes,  and squash is bloomed so far Gene found a chemical that keeps the worms away… that is so nice…. We saw a hummingbird yesterday.. they have not been coming around as much as they did last year… We have not figured out way… have seen one rabbit a couple of times… but not as much as last year… things are changing… please pray that they get better for people and animals… Gene is feeling better this morning… He found something to take to help him sleep. over the counter… I think it worked… he did not move so much in his sleep…I think he has that restless sleep thing… and his arthritis does not help… Oh I just heard him in the laundry room… means he carried the basket there for me to tackle… 6 loads later…. well bye for now … picture of the day will be………….

One of my friends is selling out their store on eCRATER take a look, maybe what you don’t find here you will find there… http://ACRead.ecrater.com

Remember we sell one autographed book by local author Joe Bullard. “Waiting for Agnes” You can find this book on three different sights… Three different prices and  many ways to pay.eCRATER is the least expensive at $19.00 plus shipping and handling.(everything I sell is cheaper here.) eBay is $19.50 plus shipping and handling. Amazon is $23.00 plus shipping and handling.  When you look at this blog today ask one person who you have never told before and ask them to tell one person… I am going to try that each day… On Twitter I will tell about one blog or store that I looked at the day before.. Trying to show other sites and have people look at mine…. Have a great day… my book (blog) is done for now.

Yes things are great today………

Monday, May 18th, 2009

Yes things are great today, Yes things are great today… I am up, I am alive, I am walking, I am trying to be glad, I am working at working as no money in this job… Weekend was a bomb… I made over what I spent but not much… I am staying away from the Flee Market till fall.  Everyone has my card. Its getting to hot for me… I need air conditioning… Love to have a store of my own… Store with new and used books and items to buy… something like GalleryWest in Gainsville…only more room… A small house with rooms not just one area.. And not the house that was near downtown…. One that is on 90 where people can see it…  Share a house with someone Else’s business…Dreams are good for people … They make them think…. and I am always thinking.. sometimes its hard for me to sleep…picture of the dayDSC04151

Have entered three books and three shot glasses this morning, books are in http.//readerwave@ecrater.com or http://readerwave.com

shot glasses are at the same address http://readerwave.com or http://shotglassheaven@ecrater.com
