I Give Up, It’s not Worth It! February 3, 2009
All I can say is … how is anyone supposed to earn a living these days.
I was doing my tax return and was getting a small refund, but at least it was something. But then I got a 1099 misc form.
I earned a big $1600 dollars from my sales of Watkins products last year.. whoopee… only thing is now I have to pay self employment tax, social security and medicare on that amount.
So now I owe the IRS! They are taking an extra $376 from me for that miserable $1600 I earned.
It just doesn’t make any sense to me. How can people survive when we are taxed to death.
It’s hardly worth it to try to make a few extra dollars
I’m A Bit Depressed January 24, 2009
If you’ve been following me you know that money has been a real issue.
Hubby is now 6 months out of work and no job in site.
A month and a half ago I decided to invest in the kit so I could sell Tupperware.
I mean everyone knows the name so I should have made back my investment and then some with little problem… nope didn’t happen.
Two friends had online parties for me. Between them there were 65 people invited, and no cross over in names…. not a single sale for either party! I am totally shocked.
Don’t really know many local people, but the few I do say they are interested but have not bought anything yet and don’t have time for the party scene.
I’ve had a few sales of my handmade bath and body products and a few Watkins sales, but nothing to shout about.
So now just waiting for my hubby’s social security to start (might get a check by April) but it’s not enough to live on.
Wish me luck.
My New Website November 23, 2008
I completely forgot that I had this site complete with domain name.
When I first got the site it was totally free, but I could not get it to upload my images and my html knowledge was very limited so I just kinda forgot about it.
Well it seems that the picture uploads are working now (but of course I now know how to add them manually)
It’s still a work in progress but would love a little feedback. So take a peek and let me know what you think please

Great Holiday December 27, 2007
Hope everyone had a great holiday.
We had a non traditional dinner of meatballs and spaghetti because my son was coming for dinner and that’s one of his favorites.
It has also become a tradition (and a joke) for me to receive a kitchen item every year and this year I got a great one.
The dogs even got new chew bones and my little chihuahua promptly stole all of them and hid them from the other dogs
