Prayers Appreciated

About a week ago Carol had a large knot come up on her side. In the last week we have been to a multitude of doctors. At first it was diagnosed as an abscess. Then it was diagnosed as a fibroid tumor. and then as a lioma. Three doctors, three different diagnoses. On October 6th we will be going to a surgical oncologist who hopefully will be able to tell us once and for all what it is. I can say she has been cat scanned from head to toe and received a mammogram along with an array of blood testing. All these tests excluded cancer. Thank God. But we still need to find out exactly what it is and she will have to have it removed because it is causing her alot of pain. So keep us in your prayers that she can get this taken care of and FINALLY start feeling better. Thanks everyone. xoxo

A Couple of Ways you Can Earn Money Online

I am not working right now because I am attending school full time. I wanted to do something to help. and I have found a couple of websites online that have.  I want to say ahead of time that I do not get anything in return for recommending these sites. They are just great sites that have helped us alot and I want to spread the word. The first site is called www.mturk.com
On this website people want you to complete various small tasks for them in exchange for
 compensation. They can take a couple of seconds up to a few hours. Usually the longer a task
takes the more it will pay. This is one that I especially like to do. In the search it will say

Quick Survey: evaluate a short phrase 


For these you look at the phrase, tell them if it is offensive, rate how likeable it is, 
choose one word to describe
the phrase, replace one word to improve the 
phrase, and then tell them how many syllables are in the phrase.


They pay you 0.02 for each one of these you do. Don't let that scare you. That does not seem like much however I can plow through 10.00 worth of these in an hour. This is a site that is owned by amazon and you will be paid via Amazon Payments. You can either transfer the money to your US bank account OR you can cash it in for Amazon Gift Cards. If you are a decent writer, there are also a few requesters that will pay you to write articles for their website. These usually pay $5 or more. All it takes is a computer and a little research along with writing ability. Keep in mind that this is only a couple of examples of what is available. There are thousands of jobs you can pick from with various amounts of pay. You can choose whatever works for you!

If you are a decent writer you can also write for www.associatedcontent.com

You can write about anything under the sun and they will pay you. My average payment is $3.00 per article but you can earn more or less.

I hope you have enjoyed reading about these and put them to use to fatten your own pocket book!

September 11, 2001

As the soot and dirt and ash rained down, We became one color. As we carried each other down the stairs of the burning building, We became one class. As we lit candles of waiting and hoping, We became one generation. As the firefighters and police officers fought their way into the inferno, We became one gender. As we fell to our knees in prayer for strength, We became one faith. As we whispered or shouted words of encouragement, We spoke one language. As we gave our blood in lines a mile long, We became one body. As we mourned together the great loss, We became one family. As we cried tears of grief and loss, We became one soul. As we retell with pride the sacrifice of heroes, We become one people.

Directv Rant

So not long ago I switched bedrooms in my house. When the guy came to install the satellite he didn't do it right but was supposed to be coming back to fix it. That was a month ago. He never came back. Despite us calling and reminding them SEVERAL times. So this morning my satellite on my tv goes completely out. We try to call once more and this time they inform us that they can't/won't come fix it because our bill is overdue. Now I can understand that to a point however I wouldn't have HAD this problem if they had fixed it right the first time! Unfortunately I cannot pull the money out of my butt to pay the satellite bill so until we get the bill paid no tv for me. Directv has got the worst customer service in the world!
