Happy New Year Early
I’d like to wish all of my blogging friends a safe and Happy New Year!
Enjoy, be blessed and be careful!
Identity Theft
As I’ve mentioned before on my blog I’m the Nervous Nelly type. I worry because it’s my job. I’m a mom and a wife and the daughter of an elderly Mom. With my health issues I have to be careful about not catching colds (yes I know I have one now, achoo), take my meds on time, keep my doctor’s appointments, blood test appointments and be cautious about my overall health condition.
I won’t even mention how I worry about my daughters - 9 year old Peanut and 20 year old Lady Ali - and Hubby who works too much, does too much around the house and smokes…..nope let’s not go there.
One thing I don’t want to worry about is Identity Theft. We have shredder where we shred all of our paperwork and check our credit reports. There’s a way to keep even safer now.
You’ve probably seen the commercials for Life Lock. Todd Davis, the CEO of Life Lock drives a truck and shouts out his Social Security number knowing that no one can use it without Life Lock alerting him. The service guarantee is up to 1 million dollars (with some restrictions).
Right now there is a Life Lock promotion code on new services. It offers one month free and an annual discount. This is the perfect time for me try this out and save myself some worry.
There’s a brand new service called Wallet Lock which helps you if your wallet’s lost. They will help you get replacements of all of your credit cards, insurance cards, your social security card, driver’s license and more. This is a free add on to the regular service.
With my Brain Fog I’ve lost my wallet on numerous occasions. I’ve been fortunate that it’s always been found either in my home or car. But this is another service I could really use too.
Now’s the perfect time for me to sign up. I can use the Life Lock Promo Code to save on some peace of mind. I can really use some of that.
Hit Me With Your Best Shot
Since I’ve been sick with a bacterial infection and on an antibiotic I’ve not been able to take my Humira shots. I use Humira for Rheumatoid Arthritis and I often call it my miracle drug. Being off it while I was really sick wasn’t so bad. I mean most of my time I was sleeping or coughing.
By now I’m finished with my antibiotic but I’m still not feeling well. I’m still coughing a bit and have a stuffy nose. I’ve called a number of my doctors but it seems that it’s OK to close your office and leave an answering machine on. One of the doctors I called even had an answering machine with a full box so I couldn’t even leave a message.
So I called a pharmacist. She said that I can’t get a Humira shot unless the infection is gone. “How would I know that,” I asked? She said my doctor would be able to tell me.
I really want my shot (said in a whiny voice)! My hands, wrists, knees and hips hurt so bad. Anyone out there a doctor?
More Shopping
Yes people are still shopping! Me too. I’m looking for bargains. People who have gift cards are ready to use them. There’s sales everywhere. And guess what? Our eBay store is having a sale!
We’ve also been interviewed by Avid Cat so we’re hoping for some extra traffic and sales from that. Avid Cat is a store directory that’s free and helps direct traffic to your online store.

We love eBay! We’ve been sellers for a little over four years now. Why not take a look and see if there’s something you didn’t get for Christmas. We accept eBay gift cards too, hint, hint…
This is the Right Thing To Do
I have been very fortunate this Christmas. For the first time in years I haven’t had to put our Christmas gifts on credit. Nope, they’re paid for right out. And this is thanks to Izea also known as Pay Per Post. I’ve been doing paid posts on my other blog Brain Foggles since the end of September.
This blog was recently accepted by Izea so I can make some extra money here too. Because of this opportunity and the season of giving a fellow postie, Mama Bok started a discussion on Izea’s community board about giving something back. She suggested that we make a donation in the name of Izea to a charity. How awesome!
Soon Izea agreed on Habitat for Humanity as it’s chosen charity. You can donate online here. Now remember fellow posties, if it weren’t for Izea what would you be doing without? What has this company made easier for you? And now think of this charity. Habitat for Humanity builds homes for people who need some help getting financially.
These homes are not given away. Instead, the family moving into the home trades “sweat equity” which is time and effort to help build their home. Habitat also helps when and where there are hurricanes, earthquake, etc. and in Third World Countries.
Please donate by the end of this year. Put your donation in Izea’s name if you’re a Postie. If not do it for yourself. There’s nothing like giving to make this holiday season feel even better.
Please take a look at some other posts about this opportunity for us to do something for someone else:
