Well, we have started a new month and the summer will be winding down soon. I know I said I was going to come here and post something everyday, but have been preoccupied with our "Celebration of Marriage" event details. This event has been taking up quite a bit of my time lately. I still have to finish the invitations and get them into the mail. We have around 40-45 people we are inviting to this event. It is also the celebration of our 30th wedding anniversary.
So for other news on what's happening and what I am doing. Let's see where do I begin:
So that's what I have for now and I am sure I will be back again. But until then I leave you with the expectation and anticipation of my return. However, until I can get this marriage event under control my posting here will probably be a little sporadic.
- I have found a place online where I can write my books, even market and sell them right there on the site. They do offer publishing packages as do all book publishing platforms. The main thing for me though is that I am able to write my book online using their book writing software. The software is much different than Microsoft word and even The Journal 5. I have a publishing blog that I've started to chronicle my progress and even my thoughts on what to write and how to say or word my sentences. I also use The Journal 5 to keep information, ideas and research notes. I am very excited about this site and considering signing up for their affiliate program especially if I am going to be using them for my book and ebook publishing.
- I have also found a place online where I can just write. No bells no whistle. Just a blank screen. There are times when what I have to say doesn't fit anywhere in any of my categories or topics and sometimes I just want to write for the sake of writing. No format, no formal way of putting things. I just want to write what comes to mind without filtering and editing everything out. Writing is time consuming and draining for me. I have so much to say and so much inside of me to come out I tend to get overwhelmed at times. This site will allow me to be me or at least the other me. The human side of me that I fight and wrestle with everyday, every hour and even every minute. Sometimes it really does feel like I am out here all by myself, destined be alone and be the lone writer who just writes. Friends are hard to come by if you are not famous or popular or have prestige. So I am who I am and God loves me anyway.
- I am looking for ways to bring in extra income since I am unable to work outside the home myself. Since my Ralph was unemployed for a time, his medical and dental and union dues got behind. When they reinstated him back to work they did it as if he never left. But with out a check during that time he has to pay double to get caught back up. So right now they are taking out extra medical to cover what he has lost and they are doubling up on his union fees by taking the current and the pass payments. Needless to say this makes for a very small check and does not cover our living expenses. And you guessed it so goes the whole financial ware and tear on the marriage relationship. But I do know we will be okay. God will provide and he will give us the grace and mercy to get through. We just need to have strong self-control, which is why I am looking for something online to help me bring in some kind of income.
So that's what I have for now and I am sure I will be back again. But until then I leave you with the expectation and anticipation of my return. However, until I can get this marriage event under control my posting here will probably be a little sporadic.
