Life Mooches Onwards!

A week of being wet, cold and windy... and the weather has been the same (a wee joke there, folks)! I must admit though, the weather here has been lovely over the past few days, but more gloom is predicted.

Enough about the weather. The only excitement in my life since my last blog has been meeting a new lady online. For a change, she came looking for ME! She lives out of town, but tells me she will pay me a visit in the near future - we'll see! I also had an approach from a lady in Ghana, who said she will come out to Australia to meet me - wait for it - IF I SEND HER THE MONEY!

As I told her, I may be honest, but I'm not stupid, so I'll be surprised if I hear from her again. There are so many scammers around these days on the 'net, that's it's becoming harder all the time to find anyone who is genuine.

Speaking of which, does anyone out there KNOW of a fair dinkum ('genuine' for the benefit of non-Aussies) home-based business where I may be able to earn a few dollars in my spare time? No, not Herbalife, Melaleuca or Amway, etc., please - been there, done that - not interested in the pyramid style of business trying to flog products to people who turn and run as soon as they see you coming!

I have been trying for months to get involved in internet marketing, but again the whole industry has been taken over by would-be scammers and leaves me with little faith in the internet community.

Socially, I am looking forward to Friday, September 30 when I will hold my first "Eff" night (see previous blogs) with a trivia theme. Fun, Food'n Frivolity with Friends'n Family is the general idea, but Providence Hall (where it will be held) only holds 30 people, so I'm leaving it up to YOU to invite yourself - first in, best dressed, so please contact me NOW (by snail mail, email, phone or post) if you're interested. Official invitations will be mailed out the first week in September to those who have been in touch (if any) and other VIP's.

Until next blogging time, stay warm, healthy and happy and I'll try to do the same.
