So Damn Hot

Hello everyone, it's tuesday morning at 3am, It's really warm in the house and when they have the damn heat blasting upstairs it's hard for me to sleep, what's the difference I live on 5 hours a sleep sometimes less every night anyhow, I actually didn't sleep with the covers last night, it felt like it was 85 degress in the house and I'm not kidding either, I was very tempted to shut the furnace off in the basement but it's not my house so I'm not allowed, and what the hell is with my dad sleeping with a sweater and a heavy blanket and he looks so comfortable sleeping, he's always complaining that he's cold and I literally think he nuts maybe it's his age, and I'm sitting laying here with no blanket and a short sleeve t-shirt on and I'm sweating, does this make any sense to you whatsoever, maybe it's because I'm overweight that I'm so hot, I really couldn't tell you, but I also can't complain to much either some people don't even have heat so I can appreciate what I have, but now I'm going to try to go to sleep for 1 more hour before I have to get up to go to work, well goodnight everyone. http://www.bonanzle.com/booths/CharlesSagona

Ebay Strategy

Hello everyone it's sunday morning, and it was a so so week on ebay I had 7 bids which isn't to terrible, it's a hell of alot better than 2 bids the week before, but I'm always hopefull that the next week will be better, I did read somewhere that if you list your item's on ebay and have them go off on sunday night around 9 pm you get more sales and I can see that because everyone is online and home at that time so you get the advantage, so I will try that and see what happens, I have just about tried everything to drum up some more sales and I really think it will work better this time, I'm usually ending my item's on sunday morning around 10 or 11 am and that is early because California, Washington, and a few other states are 3 hours earlier and still in lala land, so if I put it on later the whole west coast will be online hmmmmmmmm let's see what happens this week. well the Giants are off this week thank God they need it, they have just been playing awfull they went from 5-0 to 5-4, I just don't get what's going on it's not like the teams they are playing are really hard, well hopefully they will win next week because they really need it.

Turkey Cookies

Hello everyone it's wednesday afternoon and it's cool and rainy outside, what a busy day it was today, I made tons of cookies for thanksgiving coming up in 2 weeks, we are now doing turkey cookies, it's good for the kid's they seem to like them, thank God we are no longer selling those miserable halloween cookies we literally made hundreds of them and I must say most of them did sell, we even made a few birthday cakes with halloween ghosts or witches on them whatever the buyer requested we gladly do, I just can't believe how fast the holiday's are coming it seems as you get older the day's and years just go by so quickly, I can remember when I was a little 15 year old brat now, I'm a 33 year old brat lol, time sure does fly by, I wonder do you get better with age some people believe that who knows, I just take the days as they come, I look forward to life more than I used to, I just used to think it was drab and boring honestly, and the days just dragged on and on, now I'm more excited for what each day brings me, I'm sure alot calmer than I used to be, I used to be really anxious and a big pest lol, now I'm relaxed and easy going, thanks for listening and reading. http://www.bonanzle.com/booths/CharlesSagona

Father's Little Helper

Hello everyone it's monday morning and it's a beautiful 70 degress in new york, and that's pretty unusual for the first week of november, I'm sitting here about to wrap my ebay item's to take to the post office. such fun lol, I really need a life I'm tired of sitting here doing all of this crap, all I do is work come home cook and clean I feel like I'm my fathers wife lol, it's been that way for years now anyhow I guess you get to a point where you get used to it, I will admit he does thank me all of the time for doing everything for him and I really appreciate it when he tells me he likes my meals and things like that once in a while he will whine when he comes home after I heated up his meal and he will say it's ice cold let's not get crazed now dad it's not ice cold lol, but anyway, I'm glad I have learned to cook and clean and take care of myself and trust me I know a few people that can't even do that and to me those things are so simple to do, I guess you can call me my fathers little helper sometimes I complain about it, but most of the time I enjoy doing things for him, it's really not so bad at least I have a house to live in that's all I really need. http://www.bonanzle.com/booths/CharlesSagona
