Honey Money


When ever I sell honey or creams and balms or teach a class, I try to keep the profits separate from our other sources of income. I try to hold some aside so I can invest it in supplies as needed, but in the end most of the money goes to pay bills. This year, however I've found myself in a strange spot. The bills are paid. Other than the mortgage, insurance and utility bills, we are all caught up.

This is the first year in a long time that I'm splurging and buying something for myself. I'm calling it my Sonic Year because I got a Sonic Care tooth brush. Whoa, I wish I had gotten one of those years ago. Simply amazing, and not at all like any other electric toothbrush I've ever used.

The next thing I splurged on is a Viewsonic seven inch Android tablet. Palm top computing has come so far since I had my first Palm Pilot. This thing does nearly everything a full sized computer will do, but there is a learning curve since it is an operating system that is new to me. It is WiFi, It has a video camera in the back and one on the front side for video conferencing. I can use it as a bluetooth phone, but won't. It has a functioning GPS system in it that links to Google maps. Most of the apps are free downloads. This thing is a gem

So there you have it. This was my splurge. The only other thing I want is a back hoe, but that will only cone is I save my honey money for the next ten years or so.

I love my Sonic Care toothbrush, though it took some getting used to. Congrats on your windfall.

I've been thinking about one of those toothbrushes. With your endorsement, and Trop's, of course, I may have to go get one. I had to get a new computer this weekend and I've been updating and reloading files all day, it seems. What a pain.

Can you elaborate more on the toothbrush? I'm curious about it.

The first time you hold it you know there is something different about it. Then the brush moves so fast it's like having a bee flying around in your mouth. As for the technical bla-bla, it is supposed to get deeper under your gum line. Anyway, it works great, and feels great.

Having had a bee fly in my mouth a couple times, I hope the toothbrush REALLY isn't like that. :p
