The Payday Loan Post
Most of my classes are held at the bank, and by the bank I mean THE bank for the area. Needless to say the credit crunch is a topic of discussion that comes up from time to time. One of my favorite handouts is from One Stop English on credit cards,...
So I Did Not Freak After All
Despite my vow that I would freak out if we were not on the road today, we are not on the road and I am ok. Last night we (and by we I mean Patrick, as I drank champagne with Oma to celebrate our on the road soon night, and went [...]...
Wimbledon
Nothing brings British royalty to my mind more than Wimbledon. Maybe its the prestigious nature of the game, or the fact that up until 2003 the players had to bow or curtsy to members of the royal family (now they only bow if the Queen herself, or t...
A Different Way To Find Paid Posts
It is no secret I use this blog for paid posts. If you love it or if you hate it, I am a self confessed gypsy princess, and sadly, despite my demands, my parents have never seen fit to establish a trust fund for me. Really not fair when you think a...
Neat & Fun
I have been ignoring work a little the past week as I have been busy rescuing girls from the impending doom brought on by thunder storms. By rescuing I mean cooking, as there was no way I was actually going to venture out into the thunder storm unle...
Manic Monday
Ever have one of those days? I had it yesterday. It was EVIL. (and its over on Sticky apples so I am not about to repeat myself). Plus the memories are too harsh to relive. Let us just say that I was less than pleased, and came mighty [...]...
Even Better…
Is that Tracey will be here for her birthday, AND I have that day off! (sadly I work 12 hours the day before her birthday, but Im sending her to Ludwigsburg that day the same way I did so for my parents). For her birthday I am taking her to Neusc...
Memory Lane Of A Different Kind
So since I posted most of the trip over on Journizer, and provided the link to it both from here and over at Sticky Apple Kisses (and there I even picked out some of my favs, oooooooooo) I decided to take an opportunity for a sponsored post offered b...
That IS One Type Of Gear
So yesterday I had 3 back to back lessons on the road. At first I was beyond excited, at that rate (as up to now I have been doing one a WEEK), I would finally have all 12 done by the end of this month. Only it turns out the only time he [...]...
Boots!
Work Boots USA has more than just work boots, but boots in all kind of styles, all at a great price, all rather nice. They have more than your standard workbooks, but also shoes and brand names that include Converse, Bates, and Wolverine. I recen...
Doing My Bridesmaid Duties!
Yup, always a bridesmaid and never a bride, I am up for round 2 as a bridesmaid. This time it will be on a beach in the Caribbean as my brother marries his high school sweetheart of, wow, almost 10 years. I guess it really is about time they got m...
Social Networking
Social networking has grown immensely, without it I would be out of the loop on a number of my friend’s lives, but also more importantly I would also be without English lessons. I love that the explosion in online networking means for article...
Dollar Billz With Less Effort Please
I have had another exhausting day, and I am ready to curl up, go to bed, and not wake up till the weekend. Only I cant do that because I need to get up tomorrow to work, or cancel the work I have. Slowly breaking down and really wishing I received...
Fraud
I have a lesson that I take from One Stop English (do so love that site), they have a section where they take an article from The Guardian Weekly and make an English lesson from it for three different levels. I always take Online Fraudster for one o...
Japan & The Call Of Seafood
Turkey and Japan have been in my mind a lot lately. Turkey because we have been talking about going back there this summer for a trip. Japan because of the food food food! Well for many reasons really, with the extra work I have been doing lately ...
Go Greener!
Since coming to Germany I have not only become more environmentally aware and conscious, but more importantly I have discovered that as much as I thought I was environmentally aware before, I was a stuff consuming machine. (I now use the Story of S...
