Live It With Charter Redemption Days

This is just a quick note for those of you who asked me to let you know if I did happen to actually hear about any of the Redemption Days for Live It With Charter.  I finally got my first email from Charter telling me their running Redemption Days for some tv show swag now through December 21st.

There are 2 pages of swag listed, but none of it is interesting to me at all.  With my points all I can afford to pickup are a set of fake plastic lips from TV Guide or an Award Season 08 button from TV Guide.  I think I’ll pass.

If you’re in the 12,000 point range you can pick up Mad Men Season 1 on Blu Ray or DVD or the Extras Season 1 DVD.  There are a couple DVDs in the 28,000 points range, and that’s it.

It’s Clean!

What a weekend this has been!

Saturday I finally kicked Hubby’s butt in gear, with a little help from his best friend, and we got a ton of junk hauled off from this place. We hauled a trailer full off to Goodwill, another to the recycling center, and we cleaned out my utility room. Thank god I can finally see the floor in there again. Even better I can actually walk through the room to the back door. Before it was piled wall to wall with boxes of junk, wood Hubby’s brought home from work, car parts, and broken furniture.

I had 1 thing sitting in the corner. Everything else belonged to Hubby. My one thing was a broken exercise machine that I asked him to get rid of a year ago. It finally got hauled off to the scrap yard, and I was able to pocket $30 for it. I used that $30 to treat the boys and our friend’s gf to dinner, so I’d say I did pretty well.

I didn’t need the exercise machine anyway. It was usable but broken. It was one of those ski machines that you swing back and forth on, and the handle on one side was broken off, so you could only move with your leg. If you didn’t keep your hand out of the way you’d get slapped with the broken handle, and it hurt like mad. Besides, I’m too lazy for a machine like that. I’m more likely to grab some Lipovox and try to add a few sit ups to my day.

Unconscious Mutterings Week 306

I’m in the mood to do some muttering again. It’s such a boring day around the house. The rain has been coming down hard for a day and a half now, and we’ve still got probably another 12 hours of rain to look forward to. That makes me lazy and sleepy. I did some cleaning, I started decorating the tree, and now I’m taking some time out to sit online and do absolutely nothing lol.

Anywho, if you’d like to mutter along with me don’t forget to visit Luna Nina.
