Back in The Saddle

Friday, November 6th, 2009

DSC02828Good Friday Morning… Have had so many problems with our computer, I have been playing games intead of writting on here anywhere… I have not worked on my store in a couple of weeks.. Nothing is moving… I know I said that I would not go back to ebay.. Well I broke that promise and took Agnes back… Have not had a sale there either..  I don’t know what has happened that I have nothing .. I had at least three a week during the worst of the world melt down.. And Agnes was my only seller for a while… Waiting for Agnes by local Florida Author Joe Bullard.. about the Coral Castle in South Florida, Homestead, Fl..Ok people I have not had a sale this month. . www.readerwave.ecrater.com  

The Flee Market had been closed.. due to our county fair is there now till the 7th.. It opens the next weekend and some of our children will be here for birthdays so I won’t be going … This brakes my heart.. but can’t be helped.. I really want to see kids and grandkids.So I will be there the next week ..I go on Saturdays only… I don’t see to do as well on Sundays… I have gotten alot of newer books while the market has been closed I have over 4 boxes of other not seen before books.. (not seen at my flee shop)

Husband and I went out car shopping so I have a car of my own now to go places.. I want to drive to my daughter and everyone says no… I wanted my one daughter to drive up with me and I would fly her home if need be.. She has not gotten back to me yet…

Well I guess I am done babbling or is it rambling… I think I have used that title up… so maybe back in the saddle… always did love cowboy shows.. triger  here boy or was it girl….

Rambling Crazy Woman is Back……….

Wednesday, November 4th, 2009

There is so much going on in my life that my brain won’t shut off… I have slept l hour this evening.. Its now 5 am… I have layed in my bed almost all night.. The rest of the time I was playing games on the computer… I got so tired I thought I would go to sleep.. I just went back to bed and layed with my eyes closed and thought about everything the rest of the night.

We are working on getting medicaid for my Mother so we can place her in a very nice assisted living.. We want to be able to travel or take off if we want.. There is a very nice Christian one here and someone was nice enough to tell us about it.We went to check it out.. It looks like a very large farm house from the out side… huge front porch goes across the whole front… The rooms are semi private.. Large.. She can have her big tv  mounted on the wall she can have her  (computer)that is nice as she loves to get mail…The only problem I have is I know she does not want to go.. But I want to   to take off on a whim and go can’t do that with her here as I have to find someone or somewhere to take her can’t leave her alone for more than a day.. She can’t see well and can’t use microwave or stove…so she would be eating cold meals.. She can’t see what’s in the ref.. as the light shins in her eyes when she opens the door.. She knows where certain things are and that is where we put the things where she knows that they are… If she can’t be placed before the holidays I am getting her signed up for a weeks stay… so we can go south for the holidays.. She now uses oxygen 24-7 and the machine is noise.  She has Asama and takes three breathing treatments a day.. Yesterday I showed her how to do it herself.. I did not watch or listen for her to take them past the first one.. I asked her at night if she took her third one and she told me of course.. As I said I did not listen for her.. and I am not going to check her garbage for the little vile. She is a grown person…

I have not worked on my online store in some time.. I have not had a sale in the past two weeks… I took my one book Waiting for Agnes of eBay a while back.. Last night i put it back on.. I want to see if this makes a difference… Will give it a week if it does not pick back up I will take it off and leave it off… Prices on eBay are getting to high…

I have been working on my Flee Market store getting it ready for when the fair is over.. It starts back up the weekend of Gene’s birthday. His kids are going to be here… I am going to ask them if they mind that I go till noon on the Saturday they are here.. They would never be ready to do anything to late morning anyways.. I can do a lot of business the first day back.  And people will be expecting me.. I am thinking of getting two booths… so I can carry more books… But have not decided about that yet….I may just buy another table to take with me… that would make me 5 tables and a card table…

So as you can see I have a lot on my mind.. I have a trip to one of my daughters planned and another to plan and that is with out my husband… If my mother is here so he can stay with her…

I need to get my stores but and running again as I have a new car to pay for… This is another reason to get my flee market and online stores up and running more …

Looking for Agnes is a signed book by local author Joe Bullard, you can find it at www.ebay.com or www.readerwave.ecrater.com  its at two different prices because of the price they charge to sell it for me… and must pay the author his DSC02868money of course…

Sunday, November 1st, 2009

Its Sunday a day of forgiveness and rest.. To love family and get over what you think is wrong with them.. They may not think it… So forget it and move on.. Today is a day of planning for the next week.. I need to make those lists.. get ready for family to come, birthdays that are this month.. I got the cards out… I have gifts to wrap and something to buy (hubby) I did so well for our Ann. that I have no idea for his birthday. I need to work on Christmas for him also..

I need to get an interest in my store again.. Its business has been so bad that I have been working on making things for kids for Christmas instead of working on getting business better..I need to set my sights a little higher and work on this too… I need to change my attitude and make me feel better … Better is good… and good is Better…. My motto is Every day is better than the last.I will work on myself.  Things will be better one day. I have to believe….

My bookstore will get better and I will have a great winter…Looking for great reading or listen pleasure new or used signed or autographed, a great learning tool in LeapPad look no futher go to www.readerwave.ecrater.com
