Back in the Dominican Republic where I was born, we celebrate 3 kings day.  I would leave grass and water for the camels, but I would always be dissapointed because the stuff was there the next day.  It is something similar to American Children leaving cookies and milk for Santa.  Then I moved to New York when I was 8 years old.  Sometimes I would watch my mother hide a doll so I never believed in Santa.

Those stories of Santa coming down the chimney just did not make since, specially if you live in an apartment with no chimney.  How would he get in?  Chimneys have fire so how come Santa did not get burned?

In School there where the Christmas plays with Mary and Joseph with the baby as well as the shepards.  On T.V. the movies of Jesus birth as well as all the different christmas specials like a "Charlie Brown Christmas" or people singing christmas songs.  Rudolf the Red Nose Rheindeer song on a record.

Now I am 52 and I am a caregiver.  Altough my mother has paid help that come and give her the joy of putting up the decorations, it is not the same.  I am also working retail and this is the busiest season so I am tired from all that work.

Merry Christmas to all!!!

Canada already celebrated theirs and the USA is about to celebrate this country's Thanksgiving day.  Macy's will have their Thanksgiving day parade for all to enjoy on T.V. or in person.  Families will gather together and get in touch after travelling far and near to be with their loved ones.  Even singles in churches and other places find a place to meet, watch football and enjoy each other's company.  Do not forget to check in on your elderly neighbors and bring them something to eat if you can.

Sometimes people get depressed because they focus on what they do not have instead of what they do have.  The important thing is to think about those things that are wonderfull like the display of nature and its quietness away from all the noise of the city.

So think about what is beutiful and be thankfull for your health and all those things that make you happy. It is a time to reflect and do kindness to others.

Some people have commended that they like hits2u but not GDI.  I agree, with hits2u I have accumulated about a hears worth of free advertising because I am an affiliate.  GDI some people make money with them but my experience wa not good either.

Two websites that have helped me with free advertising and that I am not an affiliate of are:/

www.freebizadsweb.com

www.classifiedsforfree.com

I am greatfull that their free services are available.

Today I walked over to a store that I can not afford to buy in, but I like their eco freindly products and they do have a nutritional isle so I go there about once a year.  The parking lot in front of it has been turned into a nice park where you can sit and watch the calm water of our local river flow out to the sea.

Young trees have been planted and new benches have been placed so that people can sit, and watch the marvelous display of fall colors, people fishing fish that they should not eat, and just simply relax and let the sun warm your face.

What is a girl to do.  You have an 80 year old mom that is disabled and needs help.  The Department of Health does not require the agencies that give help to the elderly to send the same person all the time.  My mom had the same person for 2.5 years and then they took her away after she came back from vacation.  Shock. A month of standoffs on both sides.  The agency says she has to take what they give her.  I have to work and smile and be nice to nasty customers.  Some managers are nasty with me.  I feel like I am fighting many battles on many fronts.  How does Israel keep winning.  They fight enemies on many fronts.  The fight continues.

It is Fall, Autum and it is a new season.  People that take the time to study it, can actually tell what type of tree it is by the color of the leaves.  The heat of the summer is gone and the cool days that make walking a pleaure are here.  Nature at its colorful stage, yellow, orange, red blended with green.  Marvelous!  Vermont gets many tourist at this time of the year because of the display of colorfull leaves everywhere.

I advertised on spiderweb and found out I would get googleadsense to advertise on my profile page.  Then by accident I clicked on the settings page here on lazzeo and then clicked on I want to advertise on my page.  You can only advertise with google adsense with one account or webpage so I can not do that here.

But lazzeo does advertise in my profile page and pays me for it.  I also discovered Yahoo Publisher Network that hopefully will let me put their ads on my Lazzeo profile page.

I am angry because of other isssues that has nothing to do with my internet business but it does have to do with money matters.  I just keep reminding myself that people with physical locations, business, work some 10 to 12 hours per day to be successfull.

I want to succeed at my home based business so I can not only to pay all my bills on time and without a worry, but also so that I can get the type of help I need here at home.  Being a caregiver can be difficult at times and I do not appreciate government sponsored agencies treating my 80 year old mother like a criminal.  She went on vacation and now the agency does not want the paid caregiver that she has had for two years to come back.  They are too close emotionally.  How can you not get too close to someone you spend weeks and months and even years contacting on an almost daily basis.

I had finally trusted this one enough to plan a vacation, get a full time job and get a life.  I do not want to put that on hold again!

It is the last weekend of summer and people will celebrate labor day by not working, with the exception of those of us that work in retail, tourism and other service industries.  So take some time off to think about your activities, your job or the way you are making a living.  Take time to make real freinds.
