I was shown some facts and Now I am more confused than before.. People are reading me and looking at my store but I don’t have anything showing on my gmail… so I guess I need some one to explain…

but I am now going back to work on putting books in my store…. I have almost 1100 items and I want to make it 1100 books… so need to put in about another 100.   My book room is looking better have almost all the hardcovers in and put up on top shelves… Have almost all my groups of authors that I have together on shelves done… then I can go back to the romance, mystery, adventures and historical romance…  I have a box of books that were new but now they are not so new the white pages have gotten dusty in the last year so dropping them from new… to looks new… but that will be seveal weeks from now… please pass on to your friends my web address… Thanks    www.readerwave.com or http://readerwave.ecrater.com

iPod love it…

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009

Have not done allot with mine… I may not for awhile… I have music on it… I have been told I can put books on it… I feel like I am cheating allotof people out of a good read when I get done.  And my used book store would suffer.. Of course I don’t know how it could be any worse than it is now… I am the only one writing and reading. This is why I have never become a writer my stories and grammar are only good enough for me to read.  I had a grandma who would correct my grammar when I would write her letters and send them back to me… I never looked at them I was so upset that she would do it… My other grandma would take cards some one has sent to her and cross out words and put her own in.. I thought this was wonderful that she would take the time to do that…. I found out when I lived with this grandma that she could draw… I never knew that.. she was really good… She would not draw much as her family made fun of her… Well I guess you know who I take after… I have thought up some good stories… I have pretended to be someone else all my life… Well I don’t have to pretend thanks to my wonderful family I have a wonderful life now. My children my husband and the children he has brought to this marriage has made my life what I have always dreamed of… May everyone know such happiness.. Of course there are days I want something everyone does.. I would love travel,visit family and friends, see places I have never been.. Due to allot of reasons this will never happen.. I don’t go further than 1hr away from my house anyone time… Did you know there are allot of things with in one hr of someones house… If I could get it up to 2 1/2 I could really have a great time.. see Mickey or grandchildren, nieces and nephew.  Can’t wait till winter comes so we can go back to Fridays and see our family that we always have lunch with.. Some are doing other things over summer… Have a good one .. My dear friend who has been my friend for over 45 yrs… and I send a friendship ball back and forth to each other every month.. this is a silver ball that opens and you put something inside and give it to someone in friendship.. My sister in law has loved the idea ever sense she heard about… This past year I found a second ball and started sending it to her over the summer… She and I both have got the first send and now its on its way back to her I hope she like what I sent …. If anyone has rambled its surely me today…. What a day for someone to read this… I am listening to Cher on my iPod, I have Reba, George Strait, Garth Brooks and Michael Buble I might get some early tunes of MJ  but not sure…  If you read this please send someone else to read my mess… LOL…. Have a great day…. I am off to put some wonderful writers into my bookstore for someone to see and just have to you are    Thankgoodness for spell check…

Remembering

Friday, June 26th, 2009

Charlies Angels was one of my fav shows… Along with 6 Million Dollar Man I grew up with these shows.  How sweet the memories… These memories make me feel old and want to live longer… And make me know that if I don’t do something about my health I will be there with them sooner than I want.. Farrah was one of my very fav …and it was a shame that she did not get on more things or that she got off of Angels way to soon…

Michael Jackson loved him as a kid with the Jackson 5 but by himself not so much… “I’ll Be There” is my fav… ITunes will go up today everyone will be trying to find his music…  I know my daughters loved his music..

We send compasion and love to the families of these to…

Summer is here

Thursday, June 25th, 2009

Our second set of family has come and gone..We had so much fun.. Those of the privileged few who are on our facebook can see pictures of family and places we went… They went down the river while I went junk shopping in town… We had lunch and then they went swimming in the river.. Made a whole day of it.. Was so much fun…. We went to Stephen Foster State Park got to see two museum’s… you can see that in pictures also… Other family that came Gene took them to the river as I was not feeling well.. I have pulled some muscles and I get up very sore and takes a while to get untangled …so to speak…

I sold something on my eCRATER store this week … Thanks to the person and please send your friends and tell their friends and their friends and so forth.. Buy four books get a fifth one free… In the United States, shipping and handling is full price on first book and everyone after is one dollar each..  We are putting more and more things in everyweek.. I have to catch up with what I started last week as I did not finish before kids got here and I took time off.. I did fill my orders and mail them… Have to go to the post office today with two orders… maybe by this afternoon I will have more… check out my books and other things at http://readerwave.ecrater.com  or http://readerwave.com 

Today I will be putting in the rest of my Carley Phillips and Shannon Drake,Heather Graham Pozzessere, Christina Dodd.  I have lots of books I have not had a chance to get to so if you are looking for something special (not new) I will most likely have it in the back stock waiting to go in.

Saturday at last Family coming today

Saturday, June 20th, 2009

DSC04622One of our daughters is coming today That will be so nice… we have not seen her in months… Between our health, their jobs and school we don’t see our children and grandchildren much.. we are spread out on the east coast… Could be worse one family used to live in WA.  I use to fly there. But when I did I went to Port Orchard to see my fav author.  And when I go visit another in Va I see another author who live in Maryland.  There is good and bad with life and we must roll with the punches as they say..

Going to pick up some more books today.. Will be all set to sell Waiting for Agnes for another month.. Sales have picked up lately  Have put in lots of authors this past week.. Gwen Hunter, Charlotte Hughes, Tony Hillerman,Andra Kane just a few… Have a new Fern Michaels “Under the Radar”  after this one only one left in the sisterhood series…  The next book  I am reading is an old Diane McCall… Have not read to many of her books… Since my books are not selling I might as well read them.. And no one is reading and commenting on my blog so no sense writing about them… (my own pity party is over)  

Its going to be very hot here and the gas prices are $2.75 as of dinner last night… so don’t buy next to I75 come into town to walmart its about a half a mile further in on 90.  Have a great weekend and enjoy your families..
