Busy, Busy



This week I plan to go over to see my parents in Chipley. I cleaned three condos this past weekend at my BBCJ (Backbreaking Cleaning Job), went to Confession at St Mary's in Fort Walton Saturday, and Mass at the Cathedral of the Sacred Heart in Pensacola yesterday afternoon. Big Weekend.

I'm sort of taking today off because I had to clean yesterday. A super cool thing has occurred! I got 2 responses from my 40 or so contacts last week with work at home ad selling endeavor (www.homeeddirectory.com)! I like how the directory folks have the process organized. After someone expresses interest, I simply send them the info pack along with form letter that I personalize via email . It's all very organized, simple, and flexible. I was really encouraged to hear back from some folks and it motivates me to shoot for 40 contacts/day. I contacted 25 on Friday so I think it can be done. Most of all I like that I can go visit Mom and Dad, work from their house, and return to Navarre Friday to clean next Sat.

Well you are all (Amy, Mardi, and sometimes cousin Joan :))completely 100% up to speed. I'm sure you've been waiting with bated breath...

Bobbie! Play Penduli Pendulum!



I've had another full day on the computer putting into effect all the things the feller at Computer Masters in Navarre told me. Well, I did spend a little too long this a.m. on an old beater computer I was using to practice on. Thankfully I had an old wireless notebook card lying around. Otherwise I would've been in a pickle, as I wouldn't have had Internet access for drivers. Blah, Blah, Blah.

Thanks, Mardi, for all the thoughtful comments!

Still haven't heard from Cloud10. I'm firing off an email this eve, now that the computer is pristine and in hyper deluxe working order. Time will tell.

Above is a video of a longtime fave, Bobbie Gentry. The title of this post refers to a long running and comical bit of silliness between my pal Amy and me. We joke that if Bobbie were to ever come out of her reclusivity (No one really knows where she is!) and had a concert, we would hold up our lighters and plead "Bobbie! Play Penduli Pendulum!". You had to be there, I guess, AND you have to hear the song.

The song in the video is "Fancy" and her dancing cracks me up. Every move is planned and she has that soulful, scratchy voiced thing going on. She's awesome and I thought it fitting for my first video post. I finally figured out how to do it.

Peace!
