Yesterday we looked at some RV’s within our price range. The first one we saw was in good shape but we didn’t get to test drive it because it needed new tires. The second one was a death trap with a rotten back end and it died on us during the test drive. The third […]
Killer allergies and some yard sale progress…
I am sitting outside writing this blog post as N continues to get his beauty rest. For the past few days we have been having some major allergy symptoms that are making daily activities difficult. This morning he was feeling much worse so he went looking for some dayquil in the medicine box. Unfortunately all […]
SocialSpark makes you money, from home!
I have been playing around with SocialSpark for a while now. I like it because unlike other “pay you to blog” companies they allow you to use the “no-follow” attributes in your paid links. Social spark is an easy to use, social networking market place that brings advertisers and bloggers together. Bloggers can make money […]
Some odd photos I found…
I was sorting through all our digitally stored photos and I found some interesting ones that kind of made me laugh. I thought they would make a simple/ fun weekend post!
Making the yard sale happen!
Well, I am going forward with the yard sale.. I want to have it July 26th & 27th in my driveway here in Flagstaff. My mother has agreed to visit for the weekend and help us, yay! We will drink brandy all day and sit in the driveway trying to sell off our crap! Maybe […]
*sigh* we need to have a yard sale…
Looks like we are going to have to sell off some crap before we move! I spent most of yesterday getting moving quotes and trying to find online rental homes for my research. So far I have estimated our moving expenses to be about $6000-$8000 but it could in all actuality cost up to $10,000 […]
Ah, happy Wednesday!
Happy Wednesday folks! Yes, I am happy… I have a wordless Wednesday contribution for you and some news (you will need the password to read it, email me and I’ll send it your way). Also, you need to read my mom’s Fathers Day weekend post, I can’t believe it! LOL Well have a great day, […]
Our news has finally arrived!
This post is password protected because some of N’s coworkers are nosy and vindictive and he really wants to keep this info private until he has the chance to tell his boss himself. After we stressed out and had anxiety, my cycle got all jacked up with the stress, N’s was just walking around with […]
Everyone needs a little beauty once in a while!
Yep, that is right I have some beauty to share with you today. I went out into the garden to enjoy all my plants and their beautiful blooms. Here is a shot of my lavender blooms with the pine trees and the sky in the background. I spotted a pretty pink peony out in the […]
The infamous post about not posting and other jazz.
He, I have committed the cardinal sin of posting about why I haven’t been posting but don’t worry it is not one big long whiny post! I am feeling a bit better today! We are once again waiting to hear from Indiana, I wonder how many posts I have written about waiting for them to […]
A book meme and more waitin'…
Teeni posted a book meme I thought was fun, I have done it before but it still amuses me and it takes my mind off all the job stuff that has really begun to wear on me. Here are the rules for the book meme: Step One – pull out a book on the book […]
Just a waitin' for the time to pass, loo loo loo.
Last night we got an email from evansville confirming that it has indeed been crazy hectic out there as a result of the severe weather. They aren’t blowing us off, they are just dealing with more pressing issues right now. N was assured he would get a call today, problem is he was sent off […]
The gardening days begin…
I am turning to the garden to get my mind out of the gutter (not the perverted gutter, nice try!) these days. I don’t know what is going on with me but I am just not as perky as usual these days. We are still waiting on the second offer from Evansville but we are […]
So much chaos and uncertainty in the USA right now *sigh*
I have been following the news of the massive flooding occurring in the Midwest right now since Indiana is a place we may be relocating to. Many people are displaced and have had their homes ravaged by the flooding and storms. Wisconsin, Indiana and Iowa are in a state of emergency as a result of […]
Sharing the love!
Ah, I am home again and back to my regular blogging. We are still waiting on the 2nd offer from Evansville, they are supposed to present it today so I thought it was the perfect opportunity to finish up this post that brags about and awards a little love! Last week Teeni shared some award […]
Same ole crap different day.
Just wanted to post a little update on the job search saga before we head out of town for another weekend gathering. N called Evansville and asked if there was some miscommunication over the posted salary. He explained that when he applied it was listed as 70-80 thousand and that the actual job offer was […]
Income inequality and how it impacts life in the USA.
I have got to admit, I envy those of you living outside the US sometimes. Today I am just not loving our consumer driven corporate America. There are just too many greedy people out there looking to use one another to get ahead in life, this leaves the rest of us going without and struggling. […]
What is with snakes these days?
Over mothers day weekend there was this snake I almost stepped on that scared the crap out of me. Then last night I dream that I am walking the desert, on a hike, when I spot a snake. Then I see another, and another… The trail is crawling with snakes literally, Rattle snakes to be […]
Trying to find a plan C but so glad to be home!
I am happy to say that I am writing this post from the kitchen table of my home! Yesterday we booked a rental car to get us home, we left our car with the mechanic near my mom’s house. Before we took off yesterday the mechanic said that he thought the engine was shot in […]
Our car is dead and we are stranded!
Well things are a messed up with us! I got down to phoenix to pick N up and ring him home, we spent some time hanging out with family and were all loaded up and ready to head up the hill and be home. When we turned the car on it made a banging sound […]
