A prayer of thanks!
Just a quick small prayer of thanks - my son found my keyring today, which had all of my store savings keytags, my house keys, and my PO box key. Yeah!

Prayers for a local family
This past week or so, a local man apparently "just snapped" and robbed a local bank and took a couple of bank employees hostage. Fortunately, no one was hurt. He was a member of my local Real Estate Investors Association, and apparently was going through some difficult finanicial times. Please pray for his family. If he's convicted, he faces 30 years in jail.

Prayers for my other half!
My husband is the manager of the auto parts store in town. Tomorrow his store is basically being "graded" by his district manager and another district manager from another area. Prayers are appreciated that he will get a good grade! Thanks!
ETA: He passed! He scored 94 pts out of 104 pts! Yeah!!!!

Not lost anymore!
I cannot believe that it's been over a month since I've posted a blog entry. So much for posting often! LOL!
Anyway, a lot has happened since I last posted. Although toy season was a "bust" for me in terms of hot toys, my two dropship companies have worked out well, so I will be focusing on that for Ebay. I've also done a lot of praying and have decided that I will be entering the world of real estate investment in 2009. This has always been an interest to me, something I've always wanted to pursue, but the timing just never seemed right. But now that the kids are in school, I feel that I can really devote the time necessary to get my first deal under my belt. I'm going to be joining the local Real Estate Investors Association (REIA), and that will be a tremendous help for getting started.
Stay tuned as I make 2009 a profitable and exciting year!

Now what?
Well, it appears that toy season is going to go bust again for me this year. I had really hoped to get my act together, but alas, I don't think it is meant to be. I really, really want to get out of debt. I want to get all these stupid bills paid. So my prayer is now to find a source of income for myself, so we can just stop spinning our wheels. I feel very lost. :(

Huge prayer of thanks!
Wow! This was a miracle!
My youngest daughter has a stuffed pony that she absolutely adores. She's had him since she was 6 months old. His name is Mr. Horsey (or as she calls him now, Regular Horsey). Well, somehow Mr. Horsey went missing and in retracing our steps on the day he was missing, I decided to try and go back to the grocery store where we had been, just in case someone had picked him up in the store or the parking lot. I really had lost hope at this point and I feared the worst. But he was there! Praise God! Some kind soul realized the value of a small stuffed horse, whose tail is gone. His mane looks like a mowhawk, and he has a torn ear from where the new puppy got a hold of him, and his hoof is stitched up from where he was losing stuffing....but he was and still is my daughter's favorite, and she was a very, VERY happy child when I gave him back to her.
I will always, ALWAYS be thankful for this small, yet very BIG, miracle!

So much going on!
Wow, lots of praise reports!
Was pulled over for speeding (oops!) but only received a warning...
Harry managed to find 3 spark plugs and changed them out in my van, and now the van runs great...so we can put off the full tune-up for now.
Was approved for toy selling on Amazon, after they had disqualified me earlier in the day...
Got approval for another dropship account with a reputable company that has strict requirements...
Also need some prayers:
I had two sales for one of my dropship items, only to find out that those items were discontinued, even though on the website it said they were in stock. I was so upset! I took all of their listings off (this was the one where the emails were going into cyberspace...maybe I should have given up on that one.), refunded the two buyers, and am hoping that they don't leave negative feedback.
Need prayers that I can pay my Ebay fees so I don't lose my account. I had counted on some sales to make that happen, but it hasn't happened yet. And this was a short paycheck this week, because we had to pay the mortgage.
God is in control!
