Jobs...

So...Jobs.... How does a teenager find one? Especially a teen with health problems? I started looking today (again) and found a couple websites that say that you can earn money by blogging and using some thing from Google called Adsense. But once you look into the Adsense- you have to be 18... NOOOOOO! I would love a job where I could proof read at home or on the computer, write, or even tutor and earn money! But there is really isn't any thing out there for that! That my friends, irks me! I would love to get a new camera but to get one I need money and to get money I need a job. GRRRRR! That is frustrating. I am a soccer Referee from which I get about $60 a year. (if that) which is a nice start and all but it really is slow and not what I would like to be doing. I can't drive, I don't have a way to get places easily and I live in a swamp. How on earth am I going to find a job! ;) Any Suggestions?

Until Later,

Half Birthdays

So, does anyone else on this earth celebrate half birthdays? My family does. It all started because I was born less than 20 days after Christmas. Sure, I could live with that- but my mom felt bad for me as part of my family ignores my birthday. They send me a card but other than that its thrown out the window because Christmas overshadows it. (Note: that part of the family is very slowly getting better at this) So when you first child, who happens to be both set of grandparents first grandchild and one of the sides ignores the birthday, you as a first time mother feel bad. So you decide to celebrate half Birthdays.

This is how the tradition began. And what you do for one child you do for the other and then when you have a half brother his half birthday gets celebrated. I have started a new trend! :)

Still to this day I prefer to have my bigger celebration on my half birthday so I can not be overshadowed- not that I am selfish but by human nature we all would like to be the center of attention if we like to admit it or not. Also when family members started to ask you what you want for your birthday- you have no clue because Christmas has just occurred and now you have no more list.

And why do I bring this whole topic up?

Because today happens to be my half Birthday! So happy Half Birthday to ME! :)

What to do...

So currently I am undecided on what to do- I hurt my hip. I have no idea how it happened but somehow it did. The full story is that I was bringing something upstairs to my room and got to my room put the bag down and tipped over on to my bed- I couldn't stand anymore. It started to hurt on the way up the stairs but I thought nothing of it. This happened yesterday.

Today I woke up and was still unable to put weight on it and it hurt to bend it so I hopped over to my crutches that have a permanent spot in my room as this does happen frequently- and used those for the rest of the day. I went to Walmart, the doctors for my sister and even the library and a small party. (by small I mean my family was the only one for a while until we left...) I can put some weight on now this evening but it is hurting now as I lay in bed.

We will see what tomorrow brings-

Signed,
Me

Todays Excitment

So today I made Gluten Free Chicken Pot Pie and washed the dishes and vacumed and cleaned the kitchen- all before 10am. then my day proceded to continue with me washing the dishes another 5 or 6 times, making dinner for my family and grandparents and vacuming the screenhouse. Along with that I also helped with making Chocolate Pudding, Gluten Free Twinkies, and Gluten Free Angel Food Cake.(The Angel Food Cake turned out awful so we chucked it) All that before 6pm. Seems like 2 days' work pushed into 1. Wow... Long Day! But it was fun! We are going to try and do it again soon! :) Let me know if you want the recipies!

How I got free Jewerly

So I recently got a ton of new jewelry. well- its not new but it is new to me! A great way I found to get new jewelry is through my grandmother. And before you role your eyes and think that its going to be all grandmay kind of stuff- think again. This stuff is from when she was a child or from her mother. That means it is Vintage and all this vintage stuff is coming back in to style now so I just got a lot of fashionable pieces for free! I actually googled one of the companies that I had found on the tag of a bracelet and found out that it was worth over $50- Not bad for free?! I don't plan on selling it but still its kinda cool to do that kind of research! Check out the Photos Below of some of my favorite pieces!



This one is just so pretty! The leaves going in different directions and the pearl in the middle just makes it special!



This one is one of my absoulute favorites! It is a matching set of bracelet and Necklace! The picture doesn't do it justice! It is beautiful- I also think it may be worth some money too. I have more reaserch to though!



This one is the one that is worth over $50! Wahoo! :) It is so pretty... It is a SILVER 2 STRAND BRACELET W/TASSLE CHARM by Monet! Wahoo! So pretty and unique I must say!



This one is just unique and cool! I love this piece! It has five old coins on it that are just so cool!

4th of July

Happy (Late) Fourth of July!

Just a Picture I took of my towns' WONDERFUL Fireworks! How Awesome is this? And it wasn't even the Finale!

What I have been up to Since April

So the last time I posted it was April- What have I been doing since then- you ask? I have been busy!!!! :) After the last post I have got injured numbererous times- is that a word? And then I also have dealt with my sister having brain surgery. Sound like fun? Oh Yes! :) Loads of FUN! I am getting the hatred I feel every summer now- I HATE THE HEAT! Especially the Humidity! GRRRRR! I also had to deal with the end of school. I haven't made any cakes really since the last post besides for the Raggedy Ann. My bakery (my household kitchen) has been slow! :) Not many family members needing cakes around now. All our Birthdays are in the Winter and Fall months! :) I have been playing Nurse with my sister- who I mentioned had brain surgery but other that that no exicting things have really happened this summer. Spend Mondays with Mom, Tuesdays visiting Grandparents, Wednesday I spend with my stepmom and 1/2 Brother and Thursdays and Fridays I spend with my sisters- J and C. :) I guess thats it for now! ;)

New Cake!

So I made a new cake for My grandmothers birthday this weekend. Since her birthday is the day before the fourth of July we like to draw as much attention away from the holiday and turn it to her as we can. So I made a Gluten Free Cake for my family that is Gluten Free and made it Raggedy Ann... Tell Me What You Think!
