Well that was a long time gone, wasn't it? It's odd how you can look back on two weeks and wonder what it is you accomplished.

Let's see -- I've listed 50 items on eBay. I've been really lucky this year and found three really great consignment customers. A good consignment customer is one who is realistic about the value of their items, and one who has items with value. Seems a simple idea, right? Oh no. Many a time I get people with 1920 National Geographic Magazines who want $25 each for them. And I have to explain to them why that's not realistic.

What else have I done? Work -- I manage a UPS Store and we've had one trainee who I had to let go and just hired another one. An 18 year old young man who has never worked before. And it's Christmas time. Am I a lucky gal or what? Patience is NOT MY STRONG point -- so sympathies to the young man upfront!

My sister has started her trek -- she's in Washington now visiting her inlaws and she's due down here right around Christmas -- which is great because we haven't been together for Christmas in about 17 years.

Boring huh? This week promises a lot of TIRED -- Christmas rush starts on Monday, one of the employees has a 70th birthday party this week after work, and a customer at the store wants to pay me to help her unbox her new computer and put it together. I think I can do that -- and she'll pay me cash -- hard to be that!

Finally, I love love love toys. Used to make enough money to have them -- now I'm too poor to afford anything. My new wish toy is a Ninendo DS -- want to play Brain Age -- and have DH play it -- I'm worried about the fact that he never uses his brain.

But cheap toys -- internet widgets. I've added a few to my blog -- look to the right. I know I know -- music on blogs, ick to many. But I set it for low volume and there is a button on it to turn it off. BUT I LOVE CHRISTMAS MUSIC.

Also added a weather widget -- love that it changes from sunny to nighttime as the time changes. And a Christmas clock -- Santa!

Let me know what you think of them -- be kind, please about the music.

Have a great week!
