Let’s Go Shoppping!! =)

I absolutely love to shop online. A lot of online stores only accept credit cards and/or Paypal as payment options, which, in my case, proves to be problematic, as I do not have a credit card. I do have Paypal, but sometimes it is a pain to go to their site, log in, approve payment, blah blah blah blah blah.

Now, it’s even easier to shop online (LOVE THAT!!). You simply shop, choose Ebill me when you’re all done and then when you get your bill ( by e-mail), make the payment at your online bank or at your walk-in location!! You can also get lots of online coupons on their site!! How cool is that??

Carry On =)

Thanks to our somewhat secure “jobs” here at camp (as long as we are being led to stay here by God, I can’t see us leaving, unless they KICK.US. OUT LOL), Buster and I don’t have to worry about such things as seeking employment. I get a little nervous when I think about all the employment screening companies have to do these days. My hubby , when seeking employment after he lost his job with the USPS, heard such things as…

You are over-qualified for this job!

You don’t have enough experience on this machine for this job!

Do you have a background in this field?

It was terrible!! I am so thankful God has put us here at camp and that we can served Him here and all our needs will be met because we are in His will!! If only everyone could say that!

Carry On!! =)

SHOES!!

So, I ‘m sitting in Church the other day, squirming, trying to get comfy in the pew. I bent my foot to take some pressure off the back of my leg and the strap across the top of my shoe broke!! It broke!! That’s what I get for buying cheap shoes!! So now I am in search of new black dress shoes! I have one pair, but they are weird, I need another.

So I get online to see what kind of deals I could find and fell in love!! LOL Can you fall in love with a pair of shoes?? YES, for realz people!!! I have never heard of Christian Louboutin before, but I know him (maybe her??) now!! Great shoes!! I want the black studded patent ‘Star Prive 120′ platform slingbacks. I must have them!! LOL I am in awe of these shoes people! They are going on my Christmas wish list!! LOL

DEBT!

OK, I HAVE to talk about this, it’s driving me insane!! Why would they even come up with such a thing as credit cards for bad credit?? If you have bad credit, why would you even want a credit card?? I understand the concept of building credit with a credit card, but honestly!!! If you are already in trouble, should you really put yourself in that situation?

I would sooner think you would want to buy a small piece of property or take out a small loan, that won’t charge you a 21% APR. I don’t know. I think people rely too much on credit these days. I can see how it’s helpful to have good credit, but it can be very dangerous!!

Small Business?? ….not so much

When I had my own AVON business going, I thought about renting a small space to store inventory and sell out of. I had heard of a few ladies opening up little shops to run their businesses out of and thought it was a great idea. BEFORE I started looking into things like epson tm-t88iv receipt printers, credit card machines, cash registers and the like. All things I would need in order to make my shop efficient. All of which , in themselves, wouldn’t be too bad as far as cost, but add them up and it’s a lot of money!! I soon found out that the business I would get in my area would not be enough to warrant such purchases!! Oh well, I’m just glad I figure that out before I rented out a space and bought a bunch of equipment I wouldn’t use!!

Blogtastic!!

I had been blogging for a very short time when I heard that you could actually make money doing it. A friend of mine told me she was making $200-$300 every two weeks just doing paid posts on her blog. So, I thought I would check it out and see if I could make money at it. Almost two years later, I am making some money, and I am loving it, but I feel like with the right connections, I could be making much more. So when I heard about business2blogger, you can imagine how excited I was to check it out!! They do all the hard work for you, FOR FREE!!! They connect the right businesses to the right bloggers and the right bloggers to the right businesses. So, now that I am signed up with them, maybe I can finally start making some real money doing what I love to do!! Thanks for a great opportunity guys!!

Be Blessed…

Job Prospects…

Jo — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 15:40:05 +0000

The State I live in has the highest rate of UN employment in the country!!!! It’s times like this when I am so thankful that I am married to a Godly man who is more interested in being in God’s will than “the bottom line”. He feels that it is God’s will (and so do I) that we work here at Fort Faith Bible Camp as “missionaries”. Not once since we have been out here have we had to worry about paying our bills. God always provides! So even though we are both technically unemployed because we do not have “regular” paying jobs, we are beyond wealthy in so many ways!!

Updating our house…

Jo — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 16:20:12 +0000

OK, so whoever did the tile work in our old house, sucked at it!! I mean big time. And because we are trying to sell our house, I think it needs to be changed. The grout work is terrible, the tiles aren’t even straight and they cracked some of them when they put them up. Not that I would do any better, but I know this about myself and would make let someone else do it!! I found some gorgeous glass tiles that I would love to use, but now I’m thinking, maybe not just at the old house, but here at my new house, too!! Wait til I tell my husband!! LOL

Gifting Idea…

Jo — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 16:24:49 +0000

I have a friend who likes “unique” things. I am always at a loss as to what to get her for her birthday, Christmas, etc. I find I am always struggling when it come to finding gifts for her. Only because the more “unique” or unusual gifts are often more expensive, although that isn’t always the case. You just have to know where to go to find them!!

Blessings….
