I can’t believe that I let my friends talk me into going ice skating last night, what was I thinking. I can tell you what I’m thinking right now, ouch!!

I haven’t been ice skating in over a decade and was told that it was just like riding a bike, something that you just pick up again with ease, that is just plain B.S. I can tell you that. My back and behind are so tender and aching that it is funny and that will be the last time I attempt anything like that again, I should have listened to my “inner self” and gone with my gut feeling of staying at home at watching the professional ice skaters that are being televised right now.

Guest post of the week by Deangelo Spencer

My youngest daughter lives in Millstadt, Illinois, a small rural town, in the southwestern part of the state, bordering Missouri. The population is less than five thousand and most of them are of German descent, one of which is my son-in-law. My daughter is a GRITS – a girl raised in the south, and, having been raised in a much larger city than Millstadt, she initially had a difficult time adjusting to life there. Her husband works in the family business. He knew he would settle back there after college, which is where he met my daughter, so she will always live in Millstadt. I have been to visit several times and found it be a quaint little town. I will be visiting more than ever now that I have a grandchild there! One of the first things I encouraged my daughter and son-in-law to do while they were expecting was call millstadt home security and have a security system installed. She tells me it was the best decision she and her husband ever made.

My daughter has a friend from school that had gotten another one of the girls from her school pregnant and had just found this news out about a week ago. They were apparently dating for several months until she said she wanted to go on a different road then him, and then found out she was pregnant not too long after. I can only imagine what this child is going through, because from what I have heard, her mother had just gotten out of the Air Force a few months ago and seems to be very strict. Her father is also in the Air force and won’t be returning home to his family until September.

Well this young girl has been living with her grandparents since her parents had left for the Air Force and has apparently been getting into all kinds of trouble since then. She had told my daughter that she is going to refuse to put the baby up for adoption and is completely against abortions and has no idea on what to do. I can’t imagine what her parents are going to say when they find out, and I hope for the best for this girl, she had always been a good friend to my daughter, and hoping it stays that way. I just hope she finds a solution and/or an option that suits her and that her parents will agree with.

I am sitting at my computer exhausted and trying to distract myself from work. I am suppose to be looking up Texas Electricity Providers for my boss, but I feel like I have been working non-stop and have not had a second to breathe since I came in this morning. I have decided to update my blog (that I have not updated in two months!). I usually am not the slacker on my blog or at my job that I appear to be. I think that I am just burned out. My co-worker who basically had my same job title quit three months ago. She fell in love, eloped in Vegas, and never came back to work. I of course, have gotten slammed with all of her work because the HR department is just about as slow as Christmas when it comes to the hiring process. I have basically been doing two jobs and have only been getting paid to do one. I have gotten behind in all things personal life. I miss blogging and staying in touch with friends. They have got to hire someone soon!

I have stumbled onto an interesting concept today called video classifieds, which allows you to attach a video to your ad, I thought that was pretty cool. The web-site I was browsing around at is listasaurus.com and it has quite a lot to offer if you take the time to check it all out. What caught my attention was on their home page it states: “Get Paid To List Your Ads and that certain ad categories are eligible for cash rewards-we pay you for listing with us!” And I love the name of the company Listasaurus of which the definition is: 1. A dinosaur that loves to collect things and list them on-line. 2. Any dino who keeps his community from being extinct by supporting local merchants and individuals. Sounds interesting and cute doesn’t it.I cornered and showed a friend the site and he asked me to email the link to his email so that he could get a better look at it, he loves these types of sites, he is always buying and selling things on eBay and a few others too. He liked the idea of being able to attach a video to an item being listed, it would be a very useful tool indeed.

They are advertising that auctions are coming soon, that is something that I have never participated in in real life or online, but I’d like to try sometime either way. So I’ll keep checking back and see when they get that up and running and see what that is all about.
