luck of the green

funny, sitting here thinking about st pattys day, everything green. except of course for the mud outside that is supposed to reseamble a lawn. and the jeep that is a very brown shade of road grime. and my favorite, the very empty wallet that is supposed to resemble having greenbacks in it.
heading on a short road trip tomorrow to the dentist, knowing the outcome will be braces for both kids and hours and hours of driving time between here and there. very worth it yes for my kids to have nice looking teeth, but wondering how it is going to get done cost wise and driving wise. i guess God knows.
Sure wish God would learn to text. would make my life a lot easier. even an email would be great. just to let me know that is still thinking of me and knows i am still floundering.
I wonder if i told him i only needed $200 to start this t-shirt thing if he could plop it into my paypal account? lol.

k, enough pitty pot for me. i need to make myself a cup of tea and get some serious laundry folded.

new biz idea

had an idea for a new biz yesterday. custom made t-shirts. not screen printed, cheaper than that. fabric spray paint. for school events, team spirit, to support your son or daughters number on the basketball team, to announce a new sale at the local mom and pop.
it wouldnt be as detailed as screen print of course, one or two colors, but, it would be a cheaper way of putting your messegae on a shirt or a banner/flag.
i cant figure out a name and a matching url though. so i need help with that. any thoughts?

saturday inside the house?!? huh??

this is the first saturday we have had sun and somewhat warm weather (50 degrees) since probably november. where are my two young monsters? in thier rooms playing games. i want to go out and dig up my garden but the ground is still mushy and frozen, but the day is sooooo pretty. so i am outside picking up trash and leaves and basically piddiling around just to stay outside and not freeze and soak up some sun. yes, i am covered head to toe in layers to stay warm, but still, its the idea of being OUT in the sun. i even thought about washing the jeep, but cant find my waterproof gloves. its alright i guess. supposed to rain/snow this coming week for a week anyway.

twitter followers?

I have a gas finding new people to follow on twitter. when i find someone i enjoy talking to and i get good information from them, i go to thier profile page and see who they follow, and then, when i find someone new and interesting i follow them myself! it's like looking in someone's roledex and finding thier hidden treasure contacts!

try it. its not how many follow you, its how much information you can trade and learn!

hello? anyone home?

hello? anyone home? i am loving twitter, but my gosh there is not enough room to type what my brain is thinking. i am thinking i need to kick my brain up a notch and really get into this spirit of not working outside the home and going beyond what is considered normal by the worlds standards. status quo is no longer acceptable.

raising taxes again? for what??

reading in the paper yesterday that the city needs to find new ways to increase revenue. how about allowing worldwide known buisnesses to move in and set up shop? Colt Firearms? Payless Shoes? hello? how about being small business friendly and not killing small business owners with nit picky rules and regulations that have nothing to do with the price of tea in china and are only there to make the enforcer of the rules have a job? the city councel is trying to kill this town with taxes? for what reason? so we can maintain our small town feel? our small town politcs? our small town boredom? if the prisons were not here, what would this town do for income? city councel, think outside the box here. don't rely on co's to pay your taxes. they don't even shop here! bring in growing business! allow others to grow! stop taxing us to the point of poverty! susanville really really needs something for the kids/teens to do. besides get drunk, do drugs and steal things. we do not need to raise yet another generation of susanville stupid! give these kids an idea of what life in the outside world is really like, teach them to be smart and responsible. make it better for them to show up to work than to be stoned. city councel, raising the sales tax is not your answer........ think again
