Hi Colleen,

I’m not sure how to reply to stuff on here. We still have 108 here. Things cool down Halloween. I have my hair cut in 33 layers and a hair dresser does it once a week. It’s a medium shag like you see in my picture. In the 80’s it was real long and the top was ala Rod Stewart/ Now it just Rod Stewart LOL. I have my hair dresser do it and it comes out nice with no spiking. That’s one thing I can say is everyone likes my hair. People want to get their hair fuller and i tell them it all about the cut and layering.

Hi Adele and Gail,

We have all kinds of stuff here In Nevada. My back yard these days has chameleons and lizards. Everything is desert rock and concrete and they thrive on it. In the last place we had tarantulas on our front and back porches about the size of your hand. They are harmless. They have fur and you can feed them bugs and lettuce. We had a lot of scorpions that used to get in the house but after we got the cats we had ZERO bugs anywhere. Saved us hundreds on exterminators.I also had something called RIDDEX plugged into the walls and we also had no bugs when we used those things in a third house we had. I wonder if RIDDEX works on snakes. I know it works on Possums and rodents. We used RIDDEX when we had a place in upstate NY. We had three plugged into wall outlets. It has something to do with ultrasound. It drives them crazy and they leave. I think I like the old site better.I can’t read the print here.

I have systematically closed out most of my credit cards except one Visa that i use for emergencies only. I kept the Q-card because I shopped so much there and after paying the card off three times in five years my husband made me see that the majority of my spending was frivolous spending late at night on impulse. I have kept journals with pictures attached of everything I have bought since i got married 35 years ago, and the Q-card journal was a wake up call, especially after we downsized to a 2100 sq foot house. Just this past year in 2014 I had bought over 420 items all clothing, and twelve very expensive diamond pieces from Affinity. We paid the card off for 2015 to the tune of $6700.00 and it is still August. It was a MAJOR wake up call for me. I have no room for most of the things i have and no where to hang stuff LOL.I know easy pay was a great thing but I decided to start using my checking account. That way I know I have a budget. The Q card was something I just kept to the side and used and the easy pay offers were great. I called QVC last night and they said from now on they were going to have special offers only for the Q-Card but that some items would still be on a TWO payment easy pay for all other credit cards. Now that I am on a budget, I have to watch. I no longer work so HE has control now. Boo hoo. I can’t complain. The year before the QVC creditt card for 2013 had reached almost $15,000, and it was for three diamonds from Affinity. And he recently bought me the canary yellow solitaire they offered and h paid cash so I had to compromise with him. I closed th account. If I didn’t have MS I would still be working. Yes, I still have major head pain and I have been sleeping around the clock. The doctors have e on a couple seizure medications and IV drip for pain. It’s been horrendous this time around. I want to resume workig out with a personal trainer but the head problem has been so severe my driver’s license was pulled. I am NOT happy about it. I just have to wait an see hw long this exacerbation lasts. The last one I had where I was in a wheel chair lasted 11 months. I had to have physical therapy four times a week for an entire years. I had three months of no pain and I was walking. Now I have this, and it’s been going on for eleven weeks now.

Hey everybody,

I posted a new page here about Q-Shopping. I closed my account to save me from over spending. I paid it off and decided I would just use my debit card and now the Q has decided to only allow Q card people to use easy pay. They just lost me as a client.

I’m here, just not as much with a lot going on these days. It’s been 115 again. We usually don’t see cooler weather until mid October and then it’s about 78-90. I gave away all my Halloween stuff because I have no where to store it. Got rid of the Christmas stuff too. I haven’t been celebrating any holiday the last three years. Didn’t even put a tree up. The only ones here are me and my husband, and the cats. And he works all the time. Same with Thanksgiving. I have no family now, and my husband has off Sunday and Monday, and lately he’s been working seven days a week. Saw a Quacker show the other day and almost ordered another top but decided to pay off six things I still am paying on. This is the last month THANK GOD. I am thinking of buying that $200 corrugated steal rack I saw last month on line. I need ONE more heavy duty one, then I can start buying again, LOL.
