Tina’s Treasured Thoughts

Do any of you play on Pogo games?   I have been a member for a couple of years.    They have all kinds of games, but my favorites are Canasta, Pinochle and my very favorite is Mahjongg.    You can earn badges by completing the challenges each week.   It can be very addictive.   You can also live chat while you play.  Check out www.pogo.com    I have some free 2 week passes if you would like to try it out.   I would need your email to give it to you.   Well, just wondered if anyone knew about pogo.

Does your desk or workplace get piled up like mine?   My husband has made one of our connecting rooms into a wonderful office for me and it is so difficult to keep it neat.   It is large enough and you would think it would be easy to keep neat, but NO doesn’t seem to be that easy.   

I have an L-Shaped desk that he built and a long counter behind me, but it stays piled up with papers all the time.  Seems like the more space you have, the more places you have to lay things.  

I have taken some pictures and will share them with you.   As I looked at them, I realized I have too many things just sitting on my desk all the time that I need to condense.    Like candles, penholders, coin holder, plaques, pictures, etc;  so looking at the pictures helped me to see what I need to do.   

So many times, I work and get it all looking good and then in no time, it it back like this again.   I am a person who likes things neat, so this is a challenge.   Can anyone relate?   First picture I took of this mess , 2nd. Picture , 3rd Picture , 4th Picture , 5th and last picture    Any advice from you organizers out there?

How many times have you and your family planned to go on a trip and since you know where you are going, you think, “now where are we going to stay? Do we just take our chances and hope we can find a room when we get there or do I need to make a reservation?”

Well, I have been there, done that, and it is not a good idea. Take it from someone who knows. There have been a few times I had to take a room in a place I really didn’t want.

So, I think … “Where do I go to look for a place to stay that is going to meet our budget?” So, as so many of us do, I go online and type in motel reservations and Oh My Goodness, there are so many sites that will come up. In fact, if you have just done that, there will be around 38,900 sites pop up and then you think, “Oh My Gosh, Now What Do I Do?” There are so many to choose from and immediately I am overwhelmed.

Well, I have good news for you. There is a way to solve your problem and that is when you go to this site Hotel Reservations and this Little problem or maybe we should say Big problem facing you can be resolved. This site has great discount prices and offers these prices not only here in the USA which is where I live, but they can accommodate you world wide.

They have many places to choose from not only with hotel/motels but those wonderful resort and vacation rentals at a price you can afford. They have vacation packages and as most have an 800 number and an international number also for you to use.

Have you ever wanted to stay at a resort/vacation rental place and thought you couldn’t afford it? Well I have and it is a really nice thing to do.  With these people you can stay at a place that you have always wanted to be. You must check out this site  and see for yourself all they have to offer. You will find them friendly and anxious to meet all your needs and we all like that, don’t we?

So do yourself a favor and go visit this site and then you can travel relaxed knowing that you have a place to stay even if the evening gets late before you arrive. They will hold your room.

Hey everyone,

A while back, I wrote about my plant, “Queen of The Night” and had some pictures of it while it was blooming.   It blooms at night [maybe that is why it is called what it is]  Lol   

Well, it has bloomed AGAIN which is so unusual I thought.    It had not bloomed for 7 yrs or so and wow all of sudden after I fertilized it with low nitrogen fertilizer, it takes off like gang busters.   

It got 8 more blooms and in the last 3 days, they have all bloomed except one and it will probably bloom tonight or tomorrow night.   Can’t explain it.    But, it is beautiful and smells heavenly. 

Blooms not ready yet

New Bloom and Ones Already Bloomed

Well, if you have read my other post, you know by now that evidently I got approved for PPP and it is exciting.   When I went to check yesterday about opportunities, there is was, it let me choose one.   How thrilled I was and my first one was for $20.00 …… how nice!!!!!!!!!!    

 Well, it sometimes pays to get settle down and be patient and relax.

PayPerPost is an exciting part of blogging in my opinion especially if you are interested in learning about all the different sites there are for learning about so many interests. I heard about PayPerPost from my friend Karen who has several blog sites and she started blog marketing with PayPerPost over a year ago and has written about many things and got paid for it too! What’s not to love about visiting sites and then talking about that and getting paid to do it lol. I have also learned so much about things that before I didn’t even know existed and now I am so much smarter. I have met many people and find that there are such nice people out there in the world. One particular person is making granny squares to make afghans for children who go to cancer camp every year and this next year, she will present an afghan to each child that attends. I am so blessed to be a part of that and I would not have known about it if not for blogging. I don’t really know yet what I will do with the money I make, but being female, now don’t go getting all uptight about that, I am sure I will find something worthwhile to spend it on.

Well, I am a little frustrated.  I registered my site with PPP and received a welcome email, but then when I went yesterday and looked for a qualified opp… it had one and so I clicked on it, but there was no place to accept it, so when down to contact them and sent an email and then received an answer that said my site had not been approved.   So, guess I will wait until I see the little green checkmark saying, I am approved.   Oh well…………     And since I am so new at this, not sure how long I will be able to understand all they tell me.   It seems really easy, but yet it is very complicated ……… Can anyone relate?

I got this from The Sewing Mom site and thought I would try it. It is suppose to be Love Links, I think.

What a whirlwind weekend! They all seem to be that way lately. Jack and I had a great time going up north and then dinner at friends on Saturday. It turned cooler here on Sunday. I might be ready for fall. Oh, I got my hair cut in a new style.

I thought I would never get those pictures posted about my trip to Nashville.   Never got them to line up the way I wanted them too.    Oh Well……

Hope you got the picture of the place….. LOL
