Payday
I just received an email from Pubit, (Barnes and Noble) that today is payday and my account will be credited with my earnings on my two books that are available there by e book. I have two books published and it was a simple matter to transfer files to Pubit for sale. The payday was a big one by the way $16 but hey it didn't cost me anything. Now if I can get the word out about the books to people who read electronic books maybe I'll get another payday someday. The titles are "Frost Love Lost Love Found" and "Frost The Lost Ones" you can find them on Pubit either by name or by searching my name (Marilyn Clarke) They are only 4.99 and are fun books to read.. They are also available on Amazon for e book form. Printed version is available from www.Lulu.com or directly from me. Printed version from me is $11.00 plus $4.00 shipping for a total of $15.00 per book. They are a little higher from Lulu but they do take credit cards, at this time I don't.

Great Weekend
Well the fun filled weekend is over except for the resting. Jeff, Courtney, Kailyn and Ellie were here. Ellie and I played with dolls, fun, and Kailyn and I made fudge, yum. So good to see everyone, wish we could live about a half hour drive from Mentor, Ohio and about a half hour drive from Camby, Indiana. Anyone know of a house for sale in that area? Understand the requirements are about a half hour from each. Well another day to work tomorrow.

Tired
I worked today, a very busy 12 hr shift. When I left work I went to the grocery store. The parking lot at the store was so full I had to search and search for a parking spot, all the while saying to myself, if it's this crowded inside I don't want to be here.I went anyway! It was crowded but not as bad as the parking lot indicated, I guess a lot of the cars were from the ball game next door. Bad for business I would think when the parking lot is that full I'm sure there were others who thought 'I'm not going in there'. At least I have it done now even though I'm exhausted. Think I'll go on to bed and worry about everything else I have to do tomorrow. Night all!

Going overboard
I was reading a couple of Bible verses this morning that made me think, thinking is good, at least most of the time. Anyway it seems the Pharisees had 1521 regulations just for keeping the Sabbath. I'm sure they were sincere in their actions and thoughts. Just trying to make it clear what you can and can't do beyond a shadow of a doubt. They had become so wrapped up in their doctrine they forgot what they were originally there for. Ultimately God has what we call common sense and wants us to have it too and remember what the Sabbath was originally actually for, for worship and communion with Him. Jesus healed the man with the withered hand on the Sabbath much to the Pharisees displeasure. Their precious rules and regulations had been broken, their doctrine shown up for what it was. Let's don't get so wrapped up in rules that we can't enjoy communion with God and his creation.
