Thoughts
I recently visited my sister-in-law who lives about 1 1/2 hrs away. It's just at that range where it's hard to get out and visit each other so we don't see each other much. Sharon is the sister I never had. When I'm down, she always has a Scripture verse for me and an encouraging word. It was a very relaxing time and we got to talking about family and how we often don't stay in touch like we'd like. I commented that the older I get, the more I realize that life is all about the relationships we have. Our relationship with God has to be first and needs to be continually growing and then it's the people in our lives that are important, well, and for me, my pets are important too. :-) At the end of our lives, when we are in a nursing home, it won't be the car that comes to see us, or our house that comes to see us but, the people that we've taken time to build a bond with. It's the people that will call to brighten our day or send a card or come and visit. I try to stay in touch one way or another with my family and friends even though it is usually not as much as I'd like. If I don't call, I try to send an email just to stay in touch. Today was Memorial Day and my son and daughter came over, my husband's parents and my sister-in-law. We had a wonderful time. The weather was beautiful and it was a wonderful day. There were more happy memories created to think back on over the years.

Got my jewelry!
I got one of the rings I ordered from the free jewelry site and it is really pretty! I am really happy with it especially for the price. You would never guess I only paid $5.99 for it. One thing I will say, though, is that the rings run big. I normally wear a size 7 and this one is a 7 but is much too big for my ring finger. I have to wear it on my index or middle finger. Keep that in mind when ordering. Also, they can be resized but there is an anti tarnish coating on them and something else, (they tell you on the website) so you have to make sure if you take it to be sized that the jeweler knows how to bring it back to it's original shine.
The weather is beautiful today, sunny and 60s. Perfect weather as far as I'm concerned.

It's been a while, again, since my last post. March was pretty much snow, snow and more snow, April was rain, rain and more rain with a little snow mixed in and May has been pretty nice. We lost our canoe with all the rain. It was tied up at the lake but the lake came up so high that it was floating for a while, was full of water and then it was gone.

Well, it's been a while since I've posted here. Not a lot new since the last one. More snow, more cold, more winter. I wonder if I've stepped into Narnia without realizing it. Always winter but never Christmas. hmmmmm....... On the plus side, I did see a robin the other day. That should mean something and I did notice that it wasn't pitch black when I drove to AWANA last night. That's positive as well. There is a lot of sickness around here. I have a very nasty cold trying to get hold of me. I don't feel great but not as bad as I could. I am taking the New Silver Solution from Nutronix and that helps a LOT with lessening the severity of the sickness and shortening it's duration. I don't always escape unscathed although sometimes I can.
A couple of weeks ago we were supposed to get lots of snow. They were predicting rain, freezing rain and snow. We got the freezing rain, lots of freezing rain. We started out of the driveway to go feed horses and got as far as the gate. We had to chip away about 1 1/2" of ice to get the gate open to get out of the driveway. We were soaking wet by the time we got to the barn. The barn door was frozen shut so I got the ice scraper out of the car and had Erica down at the bottom chipping away at the ice. The leanto was full of water. There was barely enough room for one horse to stand all the way back by the wall. The building they use outside was dry. We finally got into the barn and there was standing water in the aisle. We swept that out twice but it kept coming back. Everywhere there was water was going to freeze as temperatures dropped. We got everybody fed and while they were eating, Erica and I went out to the pasture and dug a trench to drain off some of the water. That was no easy task as there was water way past the rubber part of our boots and the snow was still a foot deep. Ahhhh, winter in Wisconsin. You gotta love it. :-P
We found out very recently that my husband may not have a job next year. The company is sending some of it's work offshore *sigh* and so he may not have a job. Another incentive to develop a home based business. My main business is still The Berry Tree and Nutronix. I got into them for the business but have found that the products are helping me so much that I couldn't quit if I wanted to. The Cellfood helps my asthma a lot. I am on the strongest and best stuff my Dr. has and was still having trouble breathing. What was I going to do in 10 years? The Cellfood and the 02 Berry Water have helped me breath much better. It doesn't hurt that I can eventually make money just by staying with the company.
Other business ventures are MLP and My Launch Pad In addition to those, there are Velocity Clicks, Raining Bux, Clixsense,Adbux, WordLinx, 2Bux, Bux3, Advercash. Of course, the best money in the PTC programs is with referrals. Most of them have referrals for sale so you can earn $100 or more in each program monthly. They are also a good source of advertising. I am also doing ASD which is an old program that has been revitalized. It is also a good source of advertising.
The days of working all your life at one job and then retiring are gone. Now you have to be ready to move every couple of years and as you get older, nobody wants to hire you. Also, you have to start all over in the payscale every time you get laid off.

Into the Freezer!
The other day the weather was very mild. Erica decided to take Kasha out for a ride. She said that she did pretty good. She was a little spooky but, she doesn’t get out a lot and she has uveitis so that isn’t a big surprise. Today started out in the 30s and then we got snow. We didn’t get a lot of snow here. Most of the snow was north of us. Once the snow stopped, the temperature started dropping. I visited a friend from church today who had surgery a few days ago. When I went in to her house it was in the 30s and when I came back out a couple of hours later it was about 19. The doors on my car were almost frozen shut and the windows are frozen. I picked Erica up so we could go to the barn to feed and one of the straps on Midnight’s light blanket was frozen so I had to warm it with my hand and the snap on the gate was frozen. We put their warm blankets on because it is supposed to get very cold tonight with strong winds. Kasha and Chester are inside for the night. I managed to slam my arm against the wagon running after Chester tonight. It’s starting to hurt and will probably bruise.
We are supposed to be very cold, around 10 below zero for the next couple of nights. Highs Sat and Sun are only supposed to be around zero or 2 above. Monday is supposed to be better. At least the bitter cold is not predicted to last long. I can’t even imagine 100 below. This is plenty cold enough for me!
To update my newest additions to my earn from home portfolio, Bux.to is looking good. I got my referrals very quickly and all but
2 seem to be active and clicking. I am earning at a pretty decent rate with it. I am still pretty happy with Daily Clicks. I would like to see some referral packages for sale. Bux3 has a lot of ads every day so is looking pretty good also. 2Bux is still in prelaunch and I have bought a small referral package which has been delivered. There won’t be any ads until Feb. 1.
I joined another program but I’m still getting it set up so will write about it later. We had chili for dinner tonight, good thing to have on a cold night, and there is a fire in the fireplace. I’m looking forward to the warmup on Monday. We have a soup and appetizer night going on at church this weekend. I think the soups will be very popular. It’s supposed to be subzero temps Saturday.

More goodbyes and more ways to earn from home..
My husband’s uncle died this past Sunday morning. My daughter commented that there has been a lot of death lately and I agreed. We have lost 2 family members, a friend and 3 of our critters all within the past 6 months. Last summer a teenage girl died at Lifest. I told my daughter that’s why it’s so important to be ready. We never know when our time is up. I’m sure the last thing that young girl thought about, when she woke up that morning, was that she would be in eternity by evening. I’ll see my husband’s Opa and uncle, and our friend again one day because they all had received Jesus as their Savior. Life here is so short and it doesn’t matter what things we have collected when we die. The only thing that will matter is what we have done that is of eternal value, the people we have invested in, the people we have told about Jesus.
It’s been warm the past few days and has rained almost steadily for two days. Most of the snow has melted but, the lower pasture is all ice now. They are predicting another 2 - 3 inches of snow tonight. I wouldn’t mind the snow so much if it fell everywhere but the roads. Just don’t like driving in it much. On the plus side, it will hide all the manure piles in the pasture. :-) It will also give the horses better footing than the ice.
Erica went riding today. She said Cass was a bit spooky. She doesn’t get out so regularly in the winter so I guess that isn’t a big
surprise. So far we haven’t seen any more critters in the barn. I know there are some there because things are getting knocked over but we haven’t seen them. It could even be mice or rats. I saw a very fast gray furry thing run along the wall the other day. Guess a mouse or a rat.
I’ve decided to add more avenues of income to my work from home portfolio. I am not giving up on my main business but, I am adding more. Varied avenues are good when earning online. If one slows down another may pick up. I just signed up with Bux.to after reading several of the testamonials and some of the forum posts. I have not upgraded yet but did buy a 100 referral package. The best way to earn with the pay to click sites is to buy referrals unless you are good at referring. From what people were saying in the forum, it is a worthwhile investment and does pay you back pretty quickly. Here’s hoping! If these referrals are active and do earn money for me, I will invest in another 100. I also joined Bux3 but have not upgraded or bought referrals yet. I believe they are still pretty new so I want to wait a little while to make sure they are going to be around and then I’ll consider buying referrals there. Also added to my portfolio this week was Daily Clicks. This looks like a good site whether you buy referrals or not. Right now, they don’t have any to sell but they do have a good amount of ads so you can earn a pretty decent amount even without referrals. 2Bux is in prelaunch right now and has a sale on their referral packages. I purchased a small package of 35 referrals. The price will go up on Feb 1st. They also offer a $70 bonus if all your referrals are active! It is free to join and is offering at least 20 ads a day with a $1 payout.

Possum Wars continued
When we went to feed tonight, we didn't hear anything moving
in there and I even kicked the barrel twice! Hmmmmmm, now
I'm beginning to wonder if that thing manged to escape our trap
undected this morning. I don't think it could have. I was watching the bag
almost the whole time and Erica was right in there next to it. Surely one of us
would have seen or heard it escape.
I caught myself almost opening that barrel twice tonight!! Yikes!
So used to just going in and doing the routine which is opening the
barrel to get the cat food out.
We get in the car to go home and Erica goes Ummm so I look at her
and she's pointing at the floor under my legs. O.k., like I haven't been
creeped out enough today. She's pointing at the floor going Ummm. You know
what I'm thinking! The possum got out of the bag and climbed in the car and is
under my legs. I don't know whether to get out of the car or look to see what
I'm running from. I drive a minivan. It is not designed, even though it's a minivan,
for anyone with legs longer than about 2 feet. I always feel scrunched in there.
I have on 2 layers for a coat since I still haven't found a coat. I don't move
real fast. Panic is setting in when I look down and see Kermit, our cat.
We have this one barn kitty that is super sweet and loves to jump in the car.
I didn't even see him get in but there he was under my legs. Erica almost
died laughing at me, rotten child that she is, and I kept saying that's not funny.
So we put the cat out and get home, she has to change and get ready for work.
I drive her to work and it is pea soup out there. Fog is awful! Thankfully, she works about
5 miles from home. All country, though, so the thought of a deer jumping out kept
crossing my mind. It's been warm here. Apparantly, it's been warm enough for
other nasties to come out of hiding. As I'm driving home from dropping her off,
a spider comes out from the top of the windshield and starts dropping down. Great!
I'm driving almost blind and I have to get this stupid spider! Where's the kleenex!!!!!!!! I always keep some in the car just for spider catching. O.k., so what do I watch now? Watch the spider. Watch the road. Hmmmmm, watch the spider. Spider goes back up. Whew! Found the kleenex. I'm ready now, spider!! Spider comes back out. I need to get the spider without running off the road but, making sure it's dead. Stopped the car. Nobody else around, catch the spider, grind the spider (one of the things I'm o.k. with killing) put spider in garbage and go home.
We are supposed to get another winter storm from tomorrow night through Sunday noon.
At least we had some of the old stuff melt off before getting a new layer. Another 3 to 6 they are predicting. We are supposed to travel Sunday to my sis in laws house. Guess we'll have to wait and see about that.
