wet, windy, tuesday...

i woke up to gusty wind this morning... good thing it wasn't raining yet when R left for the bus stop, but it was already raining lightly when i drove hubby to the train stop after 8am. i went to giant eagle from the train stop to get bread & bananas, but also ended up grabbing two boxes of stouffers pizza bread. they were on sale, that's why... =)

i spent the rest of the morning organizing my spreadsheet, and updating which offers i need to cancel. i also started working on one referral i responded to yesterday. i have completed two offers on that so far, and have been credited for one. i'll continue to work on it tomorrow morning. there's one offer, though, that is frustrating me right now, which is supposed to be one of the best and easy sites to do. i guess it's more of the offer i chose to complete... anyway, their customer service has already responded to my request, and hopefully i get a manual credit for it real soon. i want to go green on that one so my buyer could also cash out.

i was also able to do some ironing, which is always a good thing as far as my to-do list is concerned... 'nuff said on that...

i also got an appointment for R with an oral surgeon for friday, but it will only be for an evaluation. i hope it won't be too long before he's able to schedule the surgery...

the California wildfires seem to be not letting up... the firefighters are already pushed to their limits, and so are the firefighting resources. there are just not enough firetrucks and other firefighting equipment to fight off this firestorm. i saw on tv, fire tornadoes created by this firestorm fanned by 80 to 90 mph-wind, and it is very, very scary! nobody, not even seasoned firefighters, has seen fire of this magnitude and ferocity, ever. hundreds of thousands of people have been evacuated, and mandatory evacuations had been issued in dozens of communities. we can only hope and pray that the wind dies down soon, and that no lives are lost. our thoughts and prayers to the people of California...
