Getting calls from Marketers

by

Did you get a lot of calls from market research companies and others soliciting their goods or services?


We used to, but here in Canada you can put your name on a special list (sorry I don’t have the website address) to get removed from a lot of the major marketing lists.

I did that about four years ago and the calls dramatically decreased. I have noticed lately thought that we’re getting more calls. I think I’ll find the address for that site and add our names to it again. Maybe we got bumped off or your “don’t call us” level drops after a while.

Is there anything like that in the US? I know our Canadian list is something provided by the government. I really wish I had the site address as I’d be able to explain it better. Oh well.





Planning little vacations for the summer months

by

I’m sitting here rockin’ out to an old 70’s song. Do you remember ” Ol Black Betty” bam a lam … I guess you could say I’m doing the computer chair boogie?

I’m in a good mood. I’ve been looking for a nice place for Chris and I to take a short vacation this summer and I think I’m might have found some Vacation Rentals that will suit us perfectly.

I just want to get away for a little while. Leave any worries I might have behind and have some fun! I think this summer, not only will we have a nice little get away in a rental place somewhere, but I’d like to go camping or stay in some nice wilderness cabins.

I miss camping and getting out into the great outdoors. I miss canoing too. I’ve got to get into my canoe this year. I didn’t last year and I miss that so much.

Are you a camper?

Tired of waiting for work

by

Does anyone else do work on the internet to make some extra cash? I do, but you know, sometimes I find that it’s a big waste of time. I love getting assignments and being able to do them when I want to. I can whip off a lot of work in an hour or two when I just sit down and do the work.


However, one of the companies that I do work for is basically first come first served and while I don’t sit here staring at the computer screen all day waiting for work, I do keep the site open from the time I get up, to the time I go to bed at night, watching and waiting for good opportunities to come up. The work I do for that company, when I get work, amounts to maybe an hour or two worths a day, but when you add up all the time throughout the day that I glance at the site hoping something will come up well … I waste an awful lot of time on it!

Yep, I love my reserved work, and of course the money I make just by putting code up on my sites such as for Google Adsense. Speaking of Adsense, I should put some on this site too I think.

Time to start making fruit smoothies again!

by

I’ve been so tired the last few weeks. I don’t know if it’s the Crohn’s or just that I have a horrible sleeping pattern. I think I’m not only going to attempt to get my sleeping pattern back on track – again, but I’m going to try to get some more fruit into my diet.

Our strawberries are flowering in the garden, and our raspberry plants are already four feet tall! However, they don’t yet have any fruit. I do have quite a bit of frozen fruit in the freezer though – some from last years crops, as well as fruit that I bought when it was in season – peaches! – and froze. So I think I might pull out that lovely Magic Bullet Blender of ours and make some fruit smoothies. I call them my Energy Drink because they are just so loaded with vitamins and other goodness.

Do you have any creations of your own that you make when you need a pick me up or when you are dieting?
