Cold

   Boy is it ever cold here in the Midwest this weekend.  Yesterday I had to pump gas and it was all of about 3 or 4 degrees outside.  I am not kidding you.  I was bundled up and still froze my tail off putting gas in the car.   Today was just as bad.  Today I had to go Grocery Shopping in the cold and again it was all of 3 or 4 degrees outside.   Hopefully we will warm up sometime Tuesday or Wednesday.   If we hit freezing it will be a heat wave to me.   Art is working a 12 hour shift tonight and tomorrow night.  So we have to eat early both days before he goes to work.  I know all I have done is rant about the weather but it is cold here.  I grew up in the Deep Dixie South as Art refers to it so we are not used to such cold temperatures for long periods of time.  It gets cold but, not this cold and for this long of a stretch.  We are also supposed to get some snow tonight too.  It will be around and inch or so but still it is snow the same.  We still have the bulk of the snow from a few weeks ago in our yard.  It is a good thing I don't have to go anywhere tomorrow.  I can stay home and sleep late too.  I tried to sleep late this morning but that did not happen.  I woke up just before Art got home and then I was trying to get back to sleep and Art was making lots of noise so I wound up waking around 7:45 am.  I will cut this short now since I am kind of tired now and want to go to sleep before midnight.

Link from blog is similar to other paid blogging companies in that you bid for jobs and the advertisers will look at the bids and determine who they want to write the reviews.

Blog Anniversary Milestone

   It is hard to believe that I have had this blog for the last 7 years.   I never thought that I would continue to do it for this long.    I have taken breaks here and there but I always come back and post something.   Sometimes it is a few weeks or months.   I have gone as long as a year but I always come back.   Looking through my archives I found how short my posts were and how few and far between they are in some spots as well.  When my husband and I set up our blogs all those years ago not many people knew what blogs were.   Now everyone has one.   Okay, well maybe not everyone my parents do not have one nor do I see either of them getting one anytime soon.  It is amazing to see what people blog about.   I read a long list of blogs religiously but have never been able to blog what I would call consistently.   As much as I enjoy it it seems a lot of people get tired of...

Technology

Well where do I begin with this one.   It seems like technology has not been my friend this week.  I wanted to make some updates to my handmade jewelry store , but the internet had other things in mind for me.  Yesterday when our internet connection seemed to be working in my favor I set out to do the updates that I mentioned.   Well that did not happen.  The network storage device that we have for backup was not accessible all day long.  Last night after Art woke up he finally got the device working again.   Needless to say we just backed up the device with a portable usb hard drive.  I didn�t know everything had to be so redundant.  So this morning was spent making updates to my site and getting blog going for my handmade jewelry store.  Everything store related will be posted here.    I will occasionally mention it on this one but any changes I make or products I add will be posted on my jewelry blog.
