Referal Changes for SendEarnings and InboxDollars

We’ve revamped our Referral Center to reward you more for your referrals. Rather than waiting for your referrals to earn a minimal amount and receive a check, you’ll instantly be credited 10% of the qualified earnings received by your referrals. Every time they receive credit for trying a new product, taking a survey, playing a game or shopping online through our site, you’ll automatically be credited 10% of their qualified earnings.

Pretty sweet deal, IMO )

Thursday Thirteen – Tax Return

Thirteen Things We’re Doing With Tax Return

  • Buy a laptop
    That’s one of the first purchases we’ll be making
  • Buy a desktop
    Another purchase we’ll be making
  • Pay on debts
    While the return doesn’t cover everything, it’s always a good idea )
  • Buy bedding
    Madi’s going from toddler to twin bed, so we’ve gotta make a few purchases for that )
  • Mattresses
    Or at least one for Madi and Ethan (he needs a new toddler/crib one)
  • Money into savings
    Just to make sure we have it if we need it. We’re actually doing pretty well and able to put some back each paycheck already )
  • Stand Mixer
    Our current mixer SMOKES when we use it
  • Glasses and Contacts
    For moi, of course. Josh has agreed to at least the contacts. My glasses are fine, but contacts will help them last a little longer ) That, and keep me more comfortable for other aspects of life, where glasses aren’t always feasible
  • More train sets for Ethan
    Ethan loves the GeoTracks and we love spoiling him with them
  • Disney movies that come out of the vault, or are re-released
    We’re buying them for us, and for the kids )
  • Some cookbooks
    I’m tired of the patheticness that is LJ when it comes to asking for a recipe. So sue me if I didn’t know how to make lasagna, FFS, or mentioning that several recipes had freaking Bisquick in it.
  • TrailBlazer accessories
    Mostly things like extra floormats, and covers for the steering wheel, a couple of litter bags (double awesomely as puke bags, JIC)
  • The Sims 2: Teen Style stuff pack
    That won’t be purchased until after we buy the new desktop (this one won’t even play it, lol ), but I’m dying for it, ;)

Ickness

I’ve got some kind of chest cold, topped with a sinus infection. So far, not taking anything for the symptoms. I can usually ride it out for a few days. They’ve gotten better since I left Indiana, and just aren’t as bad as they were, thankfully.

Members of Sigs ‘n More: I’m not really up to sitting at the computer for long periods of time. I get light-headed, and woozy, and my eyes go all funky, due to breathing difficulties (I’m fine, just a bit congested, but enough to cause purpling on extremities, lol ). I’ll get started on them ASAP, but for now, it’s just a goal of staying warm (temp drops, AGAIN), and feeling better )

Hair has highlights, and a bit of a touch-up

Pictures to follow-up later. I’m heading to bed, courtesy of a migraine (

Photo Hunt – January 26, 2007 – Old-Fashioned

Honestly, I think we own two things that could be considered old-fashioned. I mean I have my old baby blankets, but those are buried away, lol .
But, here’s my picture:

Showin’ Off On Saturday

I saw this post on Sarcastic Mom, and I couldn’t resist doing it. The theme is from Hawtolucion.

The goal is to take a picture of yourself in the outfit that makes you feel the best about yourself.

Just a little word of warning: I can never choose which shoes I’m going to wear, lol , so my shoes do not match

First, what I’m wearing for today:

White boatneck with basic jeans

Basic but give me no butt (not that I have much of one anyway)

I told you I can’t choose shoes. Do I want pink or purple?

Now, for feel-good outfits. Outfit #1 is my “summer” outfit, and outfit #2 is my “winter” outfit )
(more…)

Fridge Friday

I swear we’re not an alcoholic family. The alcohol at the bottom, we’ve had since, I don’t know, before Mark and Julie moved into their house. The beers and wine coolers are from Halloween, XD (okay, the opened one on the door is from a few days ago, so obviously I don’t drink much, XD).

And yes, I have a slight obsession with pre-made cookies. It’s not that I can’t do them myself, it’s that I don’t have enough space to do them, nor the right equipment. My stuff SUCKS, lol . I need a better mixer. Oh, and we’re having pork chops for dinner. That’s what the Tyson thing is below.
