10 days since last post

I bought a new computer and I have had it for about a week. It is still in the box. I have not had any spare time to set it up, so that is also why I haven't been posting to this blog.

We have been very lucky this month at the casinos and are ahead big time. Gold has also been going up and we have recovered our losses on the last trade when Gold plummeted. Things are going very good for us.

We are leaving for Lake Tahoe on Friday and will spend a few days relaxing. It will be nice to see all our friends in Reno and Lake Tahoe.

My sister will be visiting for a week starting next Tuesday. They will stay at the Red Rock, Main Street, and Sams Town. I am looking forward to seeing them again.

I have a lot of items to add to the E Thingamajigs store. Most of them are the 99 cents specials and are very good deals. I sold a diamond ring on Ebay at auction and will be putting another one on auction today or tomorrow. I will put the item number in my next blog entry.

The last week and a half

Since my last post, Gold has gone up and I have recouped most of my losses on my last trade. I am experimenting with day trading. I think that I can be more profitable, but it will require more time. We have been lossing big at the casinos. However, we are still ahead for this month. Thanks to the Royals that Raye hit early in the month.

I have been working in my yard. I have to fix a leak in my waterfall and one set of my Malibu lights is out. I fixed the leak in the waterfall and the Malibu lights, but then when I put the waterfall back together, it leaked again. The lights were fixed and when I went to bury the cable, they went out. As you probably guessed, I am not very handy at repairs.

We went to a few shows and they were good. We are preparing to go to Lake Tahoe again at the end of the month. Then, no more travel until May.

Raye's Birthday

Wow! We have been busy. March 4th was Raye's Birthday and we went to California. We had a great time. Visited with my son, Jason, and his family, his wife, Diana, his son, Blake, and his daughter, Haley. We also went to my granddaughter's play. Her name is Ellie and she was in the play Oklahoma. She played Ado Annie. She was fantastic. I was amazed at her talent. This was a play performed by children from about 10 to 15 years old. My granddaughter is 11 years old. She sang a solo and a duet. Her mother, Carla, her brother, Trevor, her step dad, Trip, her dad, Tony, her other grandparents, and several friends were there.

Gold has dropped like a rock. I bought in again, but it dropped some more, but it is now going up. I think that I will get back my losses and even make a profit. I am testing my program on intraday trading. The End of Day trading is too risky with gold because of the severe fluctuations. I think that my program will be even more profitable with intraday trading.

I hit a Royal today so we are ahead for the month with our gambling. So far it has been a very good year gambling. This is the 11th year that we have been gambling in Las Vegas almost daily.
We love it.

I have had some interest in the song, "Mom, this song's for you". I sold a few copies and had one school teacher who wanted to teach it to her class to sing on Mother's Day. I am trying to find a way to have sheet music written for it.
