Most Recent Posts I'm baaaacckkPosted Apr-22-08 12:20:14 PDT Well after a long hiatis in which I have exsperienced set backs and several life changing events I am back selling on ebay. I have to decrease my material worth and come up with some monitary value. In other words I need to sell some stuff to get some dough!!! I have such eclectic taste in things but am starting off with books and then moving up to some purses and knitting stuff. Hopefully this time I can make it work and get stuff cleared out. Alice
"I am broke" funny how this can mean different things to different peoplePosted Apr-01-07 11:32:43 PDT Updated Apr-01-07 11:33:45 PDT Now when I say I’m broke and my friend says yes me too we are in totally different places. What they mean is that they have just gotten paid and after paying the rent and various bills they have only $100 to last tell the next pay day without tapping into savings. When I say I am broke it means there is no paycheck coming in, no income at all except for ebay. No savings, no checking and about $4 and change in my purse that I am saving for buss fare. I walk to the post office and buy cat food first before anything else. Funny but if someone needed something and I have it I would give it to him or her. My karma theory is that if you give constantly then when you need something it will come to you. This has proven true lately, as my friends have been helping me out with out me asking for anything. I start work next week and it will all be a slow climb back for me but I will land on my feet as always. Remember when someone says they are broke it may just mean that they cant pay for $50 shoes right now or it could mean that they are barely keeping the cat fed and had to give up coffee at the little place down the street. To bad this doesn’t have spell check.... Alice I am a hit on stagePosted Mar-27-07 00:43:34 PDT Well I performed as a Drag King last night at a drag club. I was sort of dressed like Jimmy Buffet and did an old David Allan Coe song. They loved it and thought it was a new song. Lost my beard during the song but just kept on going, I don’t do it often but it is fun. Been knitting a shawl that I found the pattern I had printed a while ago and have some recycled yarn so it’s almost done. Guess my favorite color? No, guess again, yep its ORANGE. I just stung a necklace and made some earrings that are orange and silver. Can’t have too much orange. Got some fab Birkenstocks that are all orange. I am afraid to wear them incase they get dirty. Need to treat them with something so I can wear them. I have a big personality so I can pull it off. Got rained on when I went to the post office today but I have Oregon hair that gets better when wet. I actually look better standing in the rain than somewhere dry!!! Got to list some stuff since its 50% off, cant resist a sale....... Alice
I have never blogged before but am getting the hang of itPosted Mar-25-07 00:50:33 PDT If I cant finish the novels under my bed I can at least write here!! Took my creative side out for a while today and made some earrings to wear to the new job when I get one. Going to make a necklace too. Tomorrow night I will be doing drag at a local club. I am what is known as a Drag King, woman dressing as a man. It is so much fun and I look really good even if I have my tidy whitys on the outside!! I dont do it often but for charity I will glue hair on my face and look like menopause gone bad. Did some knitting and walked to the store to get ice cream. Was feeling a bit out of sorts and a walk in the rain washed it all away. That reminds me I have ice cream to eat. Later..... There is no bottomPosted Mar-24-07 14:28:12 PDT You know how everyone says that once you hit bottom there is nowhere to go but up? Well there really is no bottom. For example, I am unemployed with no income but for my ebay sales. My car is in the shop needing transplants and that is good because the plates have expired and I can’t afford insurance. My friend wants to loan me a car but still I need insurance. I broke a molar that had to be pulled due to its age and the fracture. Still dealing with recovering from that when I break a front tooth on an M&M. My landlord wants to evict me after the first and I don’t have the money to pay for my storage unit and may lose everything. I miss my mother and sister everyday and plan on going to see my sister when things get better for me. There is no bottom but there is light near there. I have two jobs that are trying to decide who wants to hire me. But even with a job it will be a long time before I see the top of the hole. Bottom? There is no bottom just different scenery.
