What I secretly do at night...shhhh

2011-12-30T06:45:00.001-05:00

My week kinda goes like this..
work some days at Barbara Jeans Furniture Mall... other days (nights & mornings pr, sales training, networking training yadda yadda ...and couponing, and all my other activities...okay...so what do I do secretly....right now I am braiding rugs...

I LOVE INTERIOR DESIGN...fashion design, Image consulting, yadda yadda.. BUT I only like useful things... so if I am working on a project as I am gearing up to remodel my entire house... Everything has to be just so.. so when my projects are done it is like this is unbelievable... so this year ...I am sewing for fun and to go pro...if you are going to do it you might as well go all the way..More like semi-pro but being in the Interior design biz... this will definitely come in handy... Thus... I am hoping that my sewing projects as this one will be will be geared towards interior design and I will make tons of practice things which my friends will all scarf up ...or be donated...but ... at the end of the day it will be so much fun to see. I do spend a lot of time praying...I learned from the best...My dad multiple businesses...International biz man...and inventor yadda yadda... I said Daddy , how did you learn to do printing (0ne of his companies) he said ... I prayed and the Lord showed me how. ME TOO! so ...right now I am hoping to do my home country/primative- but wealth...not home made... so I am going to learn to fly with the pros and wear out my prayer bones so at the end of the day I can say look at the house God taught us how to build. ....

I raise chickens...and Clay built all of our trim work and kitchen etc...very nice so together we will be a great partnership. Once I master the braided rugs I will possibly get some great materials to make these with and hopefully they will be spectacular. I do it because like God I love beautiful things.... Pray for me that I get creative ideas and run into strategic meetings with the right people at the right time that can help me in my efforts. Hey... the STEPS OF A RIGHTEOUS MAN ARE ORDERED BY THE LORD... so come on ... jOIN IN ON THE FUN.. DO A BRAIDED RUG AND YOU CAN CHAT ANYTIME YOU WANT WITH ME BY PHONING ME 1-315-439-7027 OR CHATTING ON TWITTER @r47r SOMETIMES TWITTER IS MY MESSAGE SERVICE...PHONE IS FASTEST WAY LEAVE A MESSAGE i USUALLY RETURN MESSAGES DAYS i AM NOT WORKING EXCEPT IF THEY ARE FOR MY CUSTOMERS AT WORK (Barbara Jeans Furniture Mall North Rose New York ...ask for me at the door ...and meet me in person... HUG from me for sure! -- ) Little chatty lately ....but do follow me all over the net as I am officially known as the girl who knows everyone ... (my professional profile ) ...so ...my rantings...for the day... I don't always rant...but ...hmm..well..um.. haaa .a little chatty today I guess.....LOVE YA!

Share your Christian Testimony on the internet this weekend.

2011-10-16T19:52:00.000-04:00

I just wanted to encourage everyone to share their love of the Lord on my facebook page Ruthie Junior Yingst Appleby this weekend. Every weekend I have a networking event on the internet. Come take part in these and I especially love the ones that share about my precious Lord Jesus :)

Google Buzz is going bye bye...

2011-10-16T09:41:00.000-04:00

Have you checked out google buzz yet? many haven't even gotten to it yet... All the rage is google plus and the circles. If you haven't experienced it yet...check it out and please add me as a friend God bless.

I have no health insurance this is what I did to get my meds.

2011-08-05T02:57:00.000-04:00

I have no health insurance for a season due to my recent divorce. Problem...allergies and allergies to medicines. Result- at min. there are 3 prescriptions I have to have and can't go without which results in about 700 a month and then... that is only three of the drugs.Of course I am praying for healing..but we all know Jesus is the great physician so I keep believing..All said I prayed about this. And here are some tips I learned so far.. SHOP the pharmacies.. Rite Aid was cheaper for me than Kinneys or Walgreens. Call the Drug Companies and ask for discount cards or if they have a program or free samples.I got a $55.00 off my one prescription Achiphex which is around 300.00 a month . Another one my doctor was able to get me some samples and a free prescription for one month. ASK your doctor for FREE samples. I have talked to people and some doctors won't see drug reps and others will ..so talk to your doctor about this he may decide to see the rep for you. Also You can purchase drugs by the week with some pharmacies if you have no insurance. The best advice I can give is PRAY for healing and Speak up and ask your friends you have not because you ask not. Also I strongly encourage you NOT to go off your prescriptions if YOU can't afford them. I tried this and the result was I just laid in the bed sicker than a dog and said why did I do this to myself again. Mainly because I had already prayed this through and God is allowing me to go through this Even Hezekiah in the Bible God told him to go eat a plant for healing (medicine) and when I prayed about it I felt NO CONDEMNATION..for taking the medications. So there you have it and a little Bible knowledge too.. Please feel free to share any tips here and also check out another one of my blog http://www.RuthiesCouponChannel.blogspot.com and learn more great ways to help your family.

Saw a sign of spring!

2011-01-27T21:20:00.000-05:00

Having my first signs of spring here....My Silkie hen has been broody for the past two weeks. I had never seen a broody hen before so it was strange. She was just limp and wanted to stay in the nest all the time. I didn't know that when they get broody they also stop laying eggs. So my sweet little Hen would find other eggs and sit on them. Today I put 5 eggs under her.
4 Leghorn eggs and One from my black hen which had a brown egg. Clay showed me how to introduce eggs to her. What you do is put them outside the hen and she would nudge and position them under her. So she would poke at it with her beak and push it under her. She didn't seem to want to take the brown egg but she did. Now she seems all happy in her little nest. We did take some extra hay and left it outside her nest just incase she wanted some more.

We also put on the wall some nesting boxes for our Pigeons. We had some new pigeons and wanted them to have a nice spot to lay their eggs. I noticed that a pair found a one and started their little home. We are using some wash basins that we bought at Walmart for about $2.00. We put a little hay in them to get them started.

Jelly Belly phoned me today and we are discussing doing some promoting for them. I love Jelly beans and so I thought this would be a great product to share with all of you. You will hear more if they send me some products to share with you. I make a fantastic Popcorn cake that I will make with the Jelly Beans as well.

I also talked to a very nice girl from Pampered Chef...You know I have never heard of anyone not loving being in Pampered Chef. Great little company. I am hoping to promo this to you all as well.

I have been pushing my blog http://www.RuthiesCouponChannel.blogspot.com lately. I want to help teach others how to save big at the Grocery Store.

My son came home from college today. This child is making his momma proud. He is a graphic designer and is top in his class. What more can a mother ask for. Trully He is a blessing from the Lord.

I was having so much fun today meeting so many great people on twitter it wasn't funny. My twitter address is @R47R I have about 11,000 followers there. I haven't even ran around talking to everyone on social media today... I didn't even pop my head out but for maybe a second on facebook.. although I had been watching as usual a ton of You tubes today... I say You tube has the answer for everything :) I do have several You tube channels.. ruthieTalk being one.. Okay..

My son and I went Christmas shopping.

2010-12-13T05:45:00.001-05:00

hriFinally my son and I enjoyed a day of Christmas Shopping ... With college, driving, working at the backyard farm, etc... we haven't had a day to just shop. It was really nice. We ate at Arby's and looked at video games, and clothes, etc.. and then we thought we'd goof around and take a few pictures. Russell will be gone this week for school but we will have 3 weeks together starting next week.

I found my kid...about 100 years ago!

2010-12-12T16:57:00.000-05:00

Then my mom found this old picture of my grandma as a kid and everyone noticed the resemblance... if you wonder who your kids look like go through old photos from your parents and grandparents you may find some carbon copies! Rusty Appleby and Hilda Sheetz... carbon copies

How is everyone doing?

2010-12-10T05:57:00.000-05:00

Hi everyone... Well,this blog is about my life. My friend ChrisVoss (@ChrisVoss on twitter ) and host of theChrisVossshow.com told me my blog was shooting out some wrong dates... so I wanted to thank Chris for letting me know this and I fixed this. Sometimes as a blogger you can prepost which is really nice if you find something you want to share at a later date for some reason. So today you will get lots of posts from me as I just updated everything from today on and won't be preposting anymore as it seems to be a glitch with blogger.

Go ahead and listen to the music above as you read my blog. Anytime you read my blog take advantage of the music I put on here for you all. Some of you know I am a Spirit-filled, tongue talking Holy Ghost filled born again Christian. I am very bold about my faith is that is what makes me the woman I am today. What you see is what you get with me. So I am pretty open about everything in my life. I will be writing about this at times so you will get a real close look at who I am as a person in this blog. In the past there were people that were pounding my door to find out what I was doing as I have always been a top leader and performer... well, the joke is on them... as all you have to do is pray and obey. I used to work for Danny and Debbie Maynard owners of prodigalz.com a national-intermational ministry to motorcyclist. When I worked for the Maynards they were in Syracuse New York pastoring the Church of God and I was Evangelist Danny Maynard's personal secretary. Also I was the district secretary for the Church of God. I also grew up at Bible School as my parents brought their printing company to train the students there. My Dad was a top engineer and had such great companies as Pepsico seek him out to work for them, but he had a heart for the Lord so he did both. I have been involved in ministry teaching every grade level including Women's groups. When I got into business myself sometimes I would speak for woman's groups as well. Which I still am willing to do anytime I am asked via Skype, Utube, etc.. In the future...really as I have some personal things I am working on right now. I am one of "THOSE" who has had too much in God to deny my faith. I am the real mcCoy and very vocal about the Lord. Seen lots of miracles, etc.. and don't be surprised to see me in church raising my hands and dancing before the Lord, I have a lot to be thankful for the half has not been told.

Right now I am engaged hoping to marry within the year. My fiance is Clay Sweet. I have a son Russell Appleby Jr who is going to school for Graphic Design and will be getting into advertising ...hmmm wonder where this apple came from hee...heee.. He will be 20 next month. He also is a gifted rapper, but these days I can't get him to rap a rap if I paid him...well maybe if I paid him.

My "job' right now is taking care of my college kid...I am his wheels to school, taking care of my mother, and helping my fiance Clay... He has lots of work... works full time and has a small farm that I help with. It was trully a miracle we met... but God supplies and shows Himself great on my behalf. Clay is a great comfort to me. He has stepped to the plate and is a testimony of what God intends for a man. I am looking forward to being a strong couple and as a strong woman it is encouraging to meet my equal... yet he is so much stronger. I think often of dave and Joyce Meyers with us. He being Dave me being Joyce.. he is letting me be me...yet not taking any of my shortcomings but helping me to step to the plate. I can see in 5 years a great work to help others in us, and the Lord is doing things already.

Couponing! Well... I am going all out and working on becoming one of the coupon girls we hear and read about. I have a blog CouponswithRuthie.blogspot.com you will want to check this out. I am learning the art of this. It is involved... Here are some basics... buy 6-10 newspapers a week. Only buy what you need. it's all about stock piling and following the sales in the stores... It works much like a downline... you start off slow and keep building ... and in the end your groceries are free...and even your papers.. pretty interesting... you should save THOUSANDS a year. Doing research on this.. What is the difference if you earn money or save it.. .Coupons R MONEY... that is the KEY...

so that is what is going on with me... how about you ..make this blog interactive and share about yourself and I hope you all network with each other...as I meet people for a living... I am like God there I just LOVE PEOPLE ...all colors, shapes, sizes, situations... I LOVE YOU XXOO.

Have a great day!

God has a way of working it all out

2010-12-10T05:31:00.002-05:00

Chickens to train?

2010-11-26T07:02:00.001-05:00

I own chickens and thought I you would enjoy this.

Thanksgiving was great. This was my first thanksgiving with my new family. I love them and they have totally accepted me and my son and I feel great. We had turkey, popcorn cake, cheese cake, etc...

Today I will be visiting my mom and sister. At this time of year make sure you take lots and lots of time for family. They grew up too fast and everyone has lives so I cherish every moment I can spend with those I love.

How to make homemade candles

2010-11-24T06:30:00.001-05:00

I used to sell partylite candles and made number one in our little group... I thought it would be cool to make my own candles, I am crafting through the winter... then will be working on getting my eggs ready in incubators... tada..spring and planting my garden, etc..

but for this week I am working hard on getting the thanksgiving dinner done...and cleaning house for the guests, christmas shopping etc.. I have some shopping to do about a hour away so in about a hour I will be ramming the roads and then back to cleaning the house...going out for dinner tonight with my fiance' for Chineese and then cooking and hopefully the cleaning will be over. I did decide to wall paper so I have a bit of a mess so hopefully by christmas that project will be over. so that is what is up with me today... and....

I am making blogs all over to organize myself so example all my recipes are in one spot. All my crafting, etc... I am loving it.. this blog is like a journal of my daily life..and if you want to know how a top performer lives then this one is definitely for YOU! You see all my activities will bring me in mega contacts to sell to if and when I get back into sales and it is just good to always be friendly and people really love to get to know you personally if they are working with you it is just wise.

this week too I am looking into getting free stuff, contests, etc.. to blog about and to share with my readers. You will hear more about this from me. so I am spending lots of time writing to companies asking them about product reviews you will hear more about this. My thought is ...go for the products you really want to buy in the future so you don't just have a bunch of JUNK sitting around...sometimes you may want to try something just to see if it is of interest but do be practical.

hope you enjoyed this Have a safe happy thanksgiving..

Guess what is for dinner?

2010-11-23T15:22:00.000-05:00

Okay... right now as I am blogging I am making shake and bake... broccoli and rice... the good news is that I have gone down... 8 sizes! Now that shows you what a bad marriage can do for you! have always been a 5 but I got up into a size 20 and for me that was quite a bit... so the good news is I am now a 12... you know what they say wrinkled face or fat fanny... but I do want to get a little smaller to feel healthy...

I really think it was the stress too that was packing on the pounds..not even over eatting just the constant upset stomach... Wow! So candid ... but I am sure there are other women out there that this may encourage..

so here is a big hug for all today and don't be so hard on yourself... prayer does wonders!

Getting jiggy with it...

2010-11-22T06:43:00.000-05:00

When you are in the middle and don't know the outcome of what God is doing...everything seems crazy... you are in the jiggy spot...

So getting jiggy with it, means...You start praising God like Abraham did when he was in the middle spot...couldn't see the end result so He just praised God until the answer came...When you are in that spot...get jiggy with it, and do the same thing.

getting ready for thanksgiving and snowglobe

2010-11-22T05:43:00.001-05:00

I thought everyone would enjoy learning how to make a snowglobe... maybe even a fun project for the kids to do during thanksgiving break. ...Canada made the biggest snowglobe... two stories high and 20 feet wide.

Well, here is what is going on in my live..after all this blog is about my life :) ... I am living on a 1/2 farm and we are discussing bringing some more animals here for the spring.. geese, turkeys, laying hens, rabbits, etc.. so I am trying to learn as much as I can about all of these. My mentor knows tons so I have a good teacher to show me the way.

I also have been frantically cleaning the house... I don't know why but I was just exhausted last week.. I think it was that I got off my schedule and kept waking up at2 in the morning. I usually wake up at 4 am and go to bed at 8 pm and it works out nicely. Plus I tore apart the house for wallpapering ... bad idea should have only done one room at a time.

I am also making a beautiful afghan in the zigzag pattern if you like to crochet you can read my blog http://www.CrochetingWithRuthie.blogspot.com I love the net and social media and all the things I am learning. I figure the net is here to stay so why not organize myself, and this is exactly what I am doing these days. I am making like networks/Channels etc.. for myself... Example one is on crafts, one is on farming, etc.. and then dividing them up into blogs ...some are business, some are fun.. then all my stuff is in one area. If you are following me around on the net you will see better what I am doing and I will talk about it more with you. So example I want a recipe ... wa la ... I just pull up my blog on Cooking which I believe is CookingWithRuthie.blogspot.com and it is all there right on the net and I don't have to keep a bunch of recipe books, etc.. and people that are reading my blog may give me additional information.. of course everything is open and public for all to read so it also helps me build my network so anything I enjoy doing in life I can just make a blog on and keep building and build from that etc.. It is a lot of fun and I cannot begin to tell you how much this is organizing me... The great thing is once it is on the net it will be there forever and just think I won't have to go around chasing looking for books, etc..

What is going on with Ruthie?

2010-11-15T02:38:00.000-05:00

Hi everyone ... just more updates for you all...well everyone on the net saw me go through my divorce meet the love of my life and many of you have known me for years through business or church work, etc... I will be getting married to Clay Sweet so I am changing as many accounts as possible to Ruthie Sweet but will probably always keep my other names Ruthie Appleby and Yingst since so many people know me by those names.

I also want to keep sharing with everyone all the great things that are going on... as the Lord leads to encourage and as you all encourage me as well. Social Media is a strong force and God is using it and I thank him for it.

I won't be deleting old accounts just adding new ones so people can find me who I meet etc..
I am also making lots of blogs to organize myself and if you have a interest go ahead and subscribe ... the net is so great I figure as I learn about the things I love I can just keep adding to them.

Many of you the strong faith I have as a Christian. Divorce is very hard and marriage troubles even worse... the divorce is the easy part pulling the toothache so to speak and getting healed and relief the marriage trouble is the pain. My husband did commit adultry repeatly on me and it is not true that it takes two...the Bible doesn't teach that. Jesus said people get a divorce for a Hard heart ... I am going to do what I am going to do and too bad for you... well this time around after much prayer I knew that was the direction of the Lord as no repentenance ever and to be able to move forward with my life. The healing has started and I am not angry just disappointed in people but that is life and as Christians we press on and trust the Lord. I stopped asking God the Whys and just snuggle up to him. God is faithful as always and brought Clay Sweet into my life.

All this said I have been kind of just been sorting through a lot of stuff and the Lord has been at work in me. I really want to be the person that I know God has called me to be and I hope that you all see and pray for me as I work in that direction. At the end of the day.. the end result is anything you do apart from Christ is just wasted so I am snuggling close to Him now and going with his direction for my life. Please pray for me and subscribe to my blog and encourage me and I hope I can encourage you as well. I don't think it is a accident we met or that you are reading my blog... Watch my life and see what God is doing with me and share here what you feel God is speaking to you about and let's all just connect here as really social media is everything on the net.

You can follow me on facebook as Ruthie Sweet on twitter, etc...

Have a blessed day.
Love Ruthie

deep fry a snickers bar???

2010-11-11T14:48:00.000-05:00

tonight I am cooking chicken with corn flake batter...and thought I would share this video with you all... I did hear of deep frying a snicker 's bar too. You can subscribe to my blog http://www.CookingWithRuthie.blogspot.com and http://www.TodayWithRuthie.blogspot.com

I did use a egg I collected from my own chickens for the batter. Been expanding my horizons lately and becoming more domesticated and as a woman I love it!

More of what is going on with me ... there was such a need for so many of my friends to learn how to promote their businesses careers , etc... I decided to go the route of writing a blog...almost like a continuous mentoring and class for everyone ...http://www.RuthieTalksTopPerformance.blogspot.com I have had a massage private email in the past that people would be dying to be able to be a part of had a big email newsletter in the past, owned a social network had a paid blog ...which I felt wasn't helping my friends as they couldn't duplicate it...face it ...the first 5 years you need to invest every dime in your biz and some people to squeeze a extra $30 a year was more then some...would want especially little momma's doing direct sales... but mom's - billionnaires all can benefit and we are all celebrities in God's eyes.

so take advantage of this... It will change your biz and I will share good contacts, leads sites, etc.. that some won't because I am not selling a thing right now and I have been there and back and know that for me right now it is a smart thing to share all I know so I am doing just that. ...many won't share because it will cost them money to share or let's face it ... people pay thousands of dollars for this information so again ck out that blog http://www.RuthieTalksTalkPerformance and get a buddy it is always good to work with a friend on stuff or do it alone your choice...
so that is my day so far... gotta finish dinner please do subscribe to this blog... this is me LIVE and what I am doing personally in my day to day life, professionally etc.. so follow what I do and see what happens in your life... Hang out with top performers and you will be at the top too.

Hi Everyone update about ME :)

2010-11-08T07:40:00.000-05:00

Hi all -

Since this blog is about me and my everyday life I just wanted to give everyone some updates and of course I hope you all subscribe and share my blog with other people so they subscribe as well

First of all jumping up and down... I am ENGAGED ... To my Clay Sweet. He floored me and I was so surprised. We had been talking about getting married ...but I didn't expect him to surprise me for my birthday...actually it was the day before my birthday. My son adores him and I learned that God gives us BRAND NEW STARTS and doesn't REDO US... no make overs for us folks..

My son is in the top of his class in Graphic Designs and I am sooo proud of him.
He just came back from Manhattan and loved it and said Mom, I wouldn't mind moving there. He spent some time in Time Square at the Museums, etc...

I am the proud mother of 2 eggs... haa...which we promptly cooked and eatten... Clay bought Laying chickens and is a good teacher and is teaching me how to be a good chicken farmer's wife.

I have given my heart to crafting and learning to be a good women and domesticating myself some more... Doing a lot of cooking, crafting, cleaning and farming. I love it... It is so funny me... a business women since I was a teen owning multiple businesses to settling down. Loving every minute of it.

Right now I am spending a lot of time blogging looking up cleaning, cooking, crafting, all the good lady stuff... as well as sharing business stuff through various blogs. I am going to keep this as my main blog since I have had it so long. I really haven't pushed this site as I was running around doing so much social media activities and owned my own social media network. But you know my thoughts on paying for stuff and when ning changed to pay... I said no... A blog, can be interactive too ...so if people want to contact me they can just write to me in the comments and ask questions etc..if they really need to speak to me face to face or a phone call they can ask for that right here too. Let's face it folks it is all social media these days ... what is the difference? Anyway... I will check in my blog comments and also please help me out by helping me get more subscribers and let's keep this blog interactive okay?

I can add features... I don't mind paying for things but unless you are making money why do it... unless it is a fun hobby. If my fans want me to do donations to do more we can always talk about that too. Just to add more features. Anyway...

Let's talk blogging... I made several Email Channels and blogs and will be sharing this with you. YOu may want to check out http://www.TodayWithRuthie.blogspot.com I am having a ball blogging about everything under the son and figure I can go back and read my own blogs for reference too with comments by my friends to help me learn more... Share your sites by all means in the comments... hey you never know who may need your service or love your ideas. So pretty much I am replacing my social network with this blog so comment and get to know each other... and for right now...

I am looking for mom sites, coupon sites, house cleaning, crafting, resources for women, etc... to be a better house wife and farming stuff... so if you have any pointers...point on ...

Love you all

Ruthie

You Should Be Dancing cuz it is morning...

2010-09-09T06:15:00.001-04:00

ahhh ...drinking the coffee now... and YOU SHOULD BE DANCING... It's morning here in New York at 6:14 am and almost showtime for all of us to start our day...so listen to the music and have a blessed great day...hmmm...I wonder if the angels in heaven are dancing like this...oh come on get real of course they are.. God is totally cool you know.

Pump me up...my blood type is coffee...

2010-09-09T05:55:00.000-04:00

Morning everyone...and I haven't even drank my coffee...yet... Okay..besides from the normal screwing around on my blog...hey that's how you learn...I am trying to be a bit more concerned about my content these days...after all..even though I only have 122 followers on my blog... I have a lot more that read it and give me feed back on other spots...so I am learning to behave (psst...do subscribe it makes me feel somewhat important) By the way for years and years I always had to write real serious stuff..so about a year ago I just said just go for it...and I try everything for free good or bad...and if you want a good laugh ck out my youtube channel http://www.youtube.com/RuthieTalk ...I am at the heart of the matter a sales person and sales, is sales is sales and you have to get your name out there...although I must say my sales ability hides me under so many names I myself have to wonder who I am.internet partier, socialite....preacher, comedian, blogger, celebrity, hey I am just me... bottom line...Just being me and define me as you will. ... okay.. so today's blog is just a bunch of random thoughts and things that are going on in my life right now. Got my beautiful son off to college, moved into a new place, hoping to get my divorce finalized and he's on girlfriend number 2 that I know of..and of course...no hard feelings here just glad to be done with him. ... I was asked the question yesterday was I cheating on him while I was married ABSOLUTELY NOT! and those friends of mine on twitter...can testify to this as they carried and held me through the whole process...so weird I know...but who am I to tell God what to do...it worked without a lot of tears and totally weird...but hey that's social media for you at it's best. ... so no no no... Mr. Sweet and I hooked up after and God is good as he protected me FAST because it is a JUNGLE out there and I don't do safari well. ...Okay... more here still spreading the word about Bill Zucker the greatest comedian and national wonder listen to his music on the sidebar...Bill is awesome.. and if you aren't following Bill Zucker on facebook please do that and tell Bill I sent you there. ..missing my mom too..I keep trying to visit here and we are like ships in a night.. Family ...I got so much family...and keep finding more..and my friends are so close to me sometimes I can't tell the difference... well my sweet prayer partner Patty Boardman faithful good wife of 30 years...her husband ran off with a 19 year old then had second thoughts..they got divorced this week. ...Too bad for him...She's absolutely gorgeous and thank goodness she lives with her boss and husband... a good protection for her. There is some drama going on with my siblings but prayer does the trick. Oh yes... as God would do it...I was looking for a Baby pool for the duckies and ta da...ran into... a lady and man who are christians and now I have a church home so happy as I don't really know anyone in this area and church is family. The Lord has been answering some secret requests and I am so thankful to him. On another note...I had a couple of people I had to block on the net this week...I absolutely hate doing this... hey your stalkers are usually big fans but when I get people who are just outright abusive and haters I have to protect myself and my followers on the net.. so this was a bit of a downer for me because that is usually the last resort but they refused to stop and even after they knew I shut the door they still did some stuff. Anyway... great week ...I did buy 2 pair of jeans this week... hey to a girl that is always a good day ...right? okay...my blood type is coffee...and I need my fix ...so today I will be in a good day again and hoping to see my momma.. God bless and please subscribe or tell me you read my blog and #muchlove to all and blessings from the Lord. Oh my Tom Cruise is on TV...had to stop for that one...drats...he's not the real Tom..... but how cool is that another man with his name...hmmm...I feel like a woman without a name this year...Maybe I should be Tom Cruise Haa...not really only one Tom and we love him for it. He's way cool on twitter and let's me mess with him all the time so he's alright in my book. have a blessed moment...sorry for the interruption in my good bye...but it was Tom Cruise haa haa...oh stop he's married and I am just having some fun...it's all that celebrity showmanship reporting stuff you know... coffee..coffee...must have coffee.. just think how hyper I will be after I have my coffee today! Be blessed...Life is to be meant to live...enjoy yours and don't take things so seriously okay?

Enjoy reading my blog..andmake it a social media site.. comment and connect with all of my followers!

I love it.. Please share my blog with your friends and please meet all the people here that are following my blog. What I like best about this method of social media is you meet some who have never tried going all out social media and you meet some who are extremely professional in the social media field so the contacts are awesome!...and here is another tip.. meet other bloggers and their followers.. just like on twitter and in real life networking...meet the first peep and their friends and in sales meet the prospect and their friends...(referrals) and you will be in business forever.

HOOKER RESCUED !

2010-08-22T07:07:00.001-04:00

Haa..If this doesn't move your heart..get out the tissues... This girl...was a hooker and somehow in the midst of her life...she began to put her faith in the One true God... She was rescued in the most amazing way... 2 spies came to her door...and she knew they had God ...she turned her back on her country and hid these spies and they not only rescued her...but her heart was so tender she said please when you overtake my city please don't kill my family but rescue them too...and they did. It moves me to think of how she may have prayed and prayed...Lord, you see where I am at...Help me out of this lifestyle. I know now that you are real...not sure of the details but I do hear that one of those spies married her...and also for sure she was the mother of Boaz who married Ruth...and she is in direct line with Jesus the Messiah. Her story is truly great and you can read about it in the Book of Joshua in the Bible...
If you are in a situation and you are like...God ...how do I get outta this one...Keep praying...God is into amazing deliveries you know...

I am living a amazing life..and for sure all who put their faith in him do the same. Listen to the song...and know that we serve a great God

THIS GUY GOT MAGNIFIED! - BIGGER!

2010-08-22T06:48:00.000-04:00

Okay,...Love it , Love it, Love it...

"And the Lord said unto Joshua, This day will I begin to MAGNIFY THEE in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that they may know that as I was with Moses,o I will be with you."

God was the One who made Joshua the spy great- Read the awesome story of his spyness ...in the Great Book of Eli..,the Bible...The Book of Ruth..the book of (fill your name in... ) The Holy BIBLE

You people blow my mind...

2010-08-22T06:38:00.000-04:00

Okay...gotta say it cuz it just is killing me not to... I have been raised groomed, and developed to be a Christian since Childhood... My Daddy also having done the same taught me well...He taught me not only to know about God but to love him...and guess what...he also taught me to study other religions so I wouldn't be deceived...and YES, Christianity is the truth...being Born again...Alright here goes the mind blowing... It cracks me up and frustrates me at the same time... People watch TV or the news or listen to some stupid comedian making fun of God and they get so brain-washed and can't think for themselves. They only go by what someone told them or saw on a movie... So when they talk to people like me it's like going to school and insisting that the world is made of jello or that arithmetic is a myth... you just sit there and say oh well, no point arguing with this guy. ... So why get on a soap box...Well because want to share the real story ... the real truth is Christianity is more than a little exciting...I got so pumped knowing who I am about to studying "A SPY" yes, God had them too..C'mon He is the SPY OF SPIES... He taught them... Here we see in Joshua chapter 1 the next level of his career as a master Spy. God told him exactly how to do it...and Joshua the Spy did it all and came back from his mission a success. Trust me ...we are talking peoples lives here...You can't be a wimpy guy and be a spy. I love spy novels...and this one is great because it is TRUE....The Ultimate SPOOK! So if you dare... read the Bible for yourself and remember these are real people living real lives. Don't put God in a box...you never know what he is calling you to do.

For all you students of the Bible

2010-08-22T06:12:00.000-04:00

Thumbs up to the Book of Eli

2010-08-20T09:51:00.001-04:00

Hurray to you Denzel Washington once again! A must see movie for all especially for those of faith. The movie is clearly a fiction, but the spiritual insights are strong. Living in a world "after the flash" and the violance that ensures...we see "THE BOOK OF ELI" being protected with divine power as it travels WEST along the road. Yes, this is the Book that changes history and lives. Would that the people in todays world take it as seriously and realize that the Book of Eli is the Book of Power and Strenth that moves the nations and that the Word became flesh and dwelt among us...John 1:14 in God Himself ...the Lord Jesus Christ. you can purchase the Book of Eli...The Holy Bible at any dollar store.

working on a show room floor and reading

2010-08-20T06:31:00.001-04:00

Along with having a busy life...
take the time to read...it gives you a nice mental vacation!

If you work on a showroom floor It is important to be the first one to work for many reasons-

To prepare yourself for the day

To contact any appoints you may have to do

To speak with the boss or owner for any updates

To make sure you look your best for customers

To prevent other sales reps from trashing you before work...sorry sometimes some early birds gripe about co-workers to the boss before work

To prepare the work area water plants, straighten cars, furniture, etc...

To prepare yourself for the day.

etc,,,

The Replacement

2010-08-20T06:16:00.000-04:00

Reading through the Bible...

The Book of Acts...

Here in Chapter 1 we see that Judas has killed himself and another takes his place as an apostle...

Matthias was now to be the replacement for Judas. ... God knew all along that Judas would need to be replaced. In fact God knew that Matthias would be his replacement.

Going into the book of Psalms we see 109:8 "Let his days be few; and let another take his office"

and Acts 1: 20b "...and his bishoprick let another take". (bishopric -the office of a bishop )

No surprises with God. He has a plan and He knew all along. We want to put him in a box. But even what we may think is his second plan...isn't at all but his plan all along as he knew what would happen... And let's just think about Matthias here for a second... While Judas was still alive...God was training and developing Matthias for the work he was to do... Knowing all along he would be the replacement.

Let's Play Tennis and Communicate!

2010-08-19T12:04:00.000-04:00

Play Tennis in Communication....

Learn the art of good communication. It is like playing tennis. Here is how this works. One person speaks tossing the ball so to speak to the other person then the other person tosses the ball back. Don't think about what you are going to say but really listen to what the other person is saying and actually at times repeat to the person what you just heard. So learn the art of communication...it's a game of Tennis.

Getting through to the decision maker

2010-08-19T10:56:00.001-04:00

How To Get Through To The Decision Maker

Okay, You are in sales and you need to get through to the owner of the biz, and you just can't break through here are a couple of tips that will help you get through the door.

When phoning ...be real casual ...do your homework find out what the owners first name is and when the receptionist or secretary answers the phone ask real casual but with authority and say Hi is Bob there ... it's all about voice tone , casual talk and authority. When the secretary picks up the phone she won't question and put you right through. Of course sometimes you may end up with a more savy person on the phone and they still may freeze you out but most of the time just the very tone of your voice will put you through so you can speak with the decision maker who you will be able to deliver your pitch to.

Another little trick you will be able to try is this... As a former business owner I used to hate it when people would phone me with a sales pitch in the middle of my busy day when I wanted to work...but I absolutely loved it when a savy salesperson would call me before my day started and I was drinking my coffee and I wasn't officially in work mode and I was actually in a great mood. A old business trick from way back when is to make 25 calls every single morning starting at 730 am to fill your calendar with appts for the week...remember you will never see a salesperson with a full calendar looking for money. So be smart approach if you want to meet the decision maker chances are they got there by being savy themselves and will love that you know this trick.

So this week try to make these to tricks as part of your routine and see what this does for your pocket book.

How to find a great job

2010-08-19T07:00:00.002-04:00

How to find a GOOD JOB

Unemployment is rampet in the USA ..but here is a fun way to get a great job. Years ago my parents, who own a printing company had a customer come in who ordered a thousand resumes. At the time my parents thought wow that is a lot of applications to fill out, especially since many times people would come in with their eyes bigger than their stomach and they would counsel the customer that they were ordering too many. The customer insisted that he was right and needed that many to get the dream job he wanted. The truth is he did. In the job market you are selling YOURSELF to the interviewer. What makes good sales..Lots of potential customers of course. This guy was no dummy he knew this and made the most of it. As the story goes this guy got the job he wanted. Do your homework while looking for a job after all you may end up there for the next 20 years if you find the right job. A nice thing in this day and age is with the internet and cutting and pasting you can copy ...cut...paste and perhaps even keep these on file on your computer and just send out random applications to potential people who may hire you. Be a little on the edge... Some companies never put up jobs "FOR SALE" on job sites. But you can still send your application to them via email, etc.. And then again some companies ...CONSTANTLY ...Keep their JOBS FOR SALE on the Job sites figuring in a sense THEY ARE BUYING TALENT and will ALWAYS FIND A JOB for those who are extremely talented even if they have to create a job title for them. Which brings me to this too, at times you may want to always have your resume available..YOU can constantly apply for jobs if you don't mind working 2-3 jobs at times as you wouldn't want to lose the great job you did find but still want to learn more skills. Okay, can't resist -- sometimes you may just want to work a job just to get the FREE education which will make your resume look great and hey learning new skills is great. I am not suggested multiple jobs and working 24/7 but for various reasons sometimes you have to and of course we aren't even discussing having your own biz on the side. So looking for a job....? First step send out 1,000 resumes or more..It is a Numbers game and out of 1,000 people or more you are bound to get a job and think of the mastering of doing those interviews just through the process of doing so many as you will become a professional interviewee...which hey..Now you have a new skill and should write a book. Begin your personal job campaign just like a sales campaign you never know where it may lead you.

My blog for Tuesday

2010-08-19T03:58:00.001-04:00

‎Tuesday, ‎August ‎17, ‎2010

Blogging outside at 2:19 am... been a busy summer. Met my love Mr. Sweet and moved out of my house on August 13 th for good. Life is definitely changing for me. I am sitting on the picket line with friends right now supporting their efforts against corporate greed and we all have our little techie geer here. Mini lap, iphone and ipod. Brought my dog along to picket haaa.. He's loving it....gets to meet all the new people.

Took a tour of the local town...considering working at a nice furniture store in the area. I love Interior Design and it looks like I found a place that may be right up my ally if I go back into furniture sales. Considering some other options of course as well, but just like to scope things out. My son is going to college this year and I will have quite a long drive to make sure he makes it on time every day. It looks like I will be driving 40 minutes one way everyday to make sure he gets there on time.

My cooking skills are increasing as I am dating Mr. Sweet and he went to school for cooking and even won a scholarship to a cooking school as well. He works in food..but not as a chef. Iam loving the opportunity to learn how to be a better cook.

I was so homesick for my Mom last year that God was very gracious to me and actually had mom move in with me for awhile. Now she has her own apartment, I have a feeling I will be seeing her a lot more often as when I drive my kid to school it will be easier to just stay all day rather than drive home so I will just go over and see my mom at her apartment or hang out at Barnes and Nobles which is right across the street from the college.

Getting tired here...thinking about taking a short cat nap in the car...It does get to be a long nap sitting on the strike zone. I don't work for the company I am striking with. This is the first time my son came ...along with my dog. Haa..

Well... want to start blogging a bit about my personal life...It is good to reflect back later on these. Everyone should blog it is good for the soul.

The secret- treat them like a dog

2010-08-19T03:14:00.000-04:00

Don't throw stones just yet...

but think about it...

When they come reward them,

pet them, tickle their tummy,

teach them the rules to behave.

It sounds funny but like your dog if you scold them they will
stop coming, if you reward them and give them a treat (make it a pleasant
experience to come to you!

This I learned from a funny old movie "If a man answers hang up!"

but it makes a lot of sense.

@RuthieAppleby the real deal blogging here

2010-08-19T03:04:00.000-04:00

Okay, been in front of the public for a long time with all of my little ventures...
For all of you that chase me around the net or in person wanting to learn my little secrets...Just want to let you know that I am pulling up from where I spot them some of my articles and helps for you and of course forever giving you the latest with me..personally, spiritually, and professionally all the new ideas that I come up with to help you be as successful as you can be! So keep reading the blog as I keep pulling up more and more to put into this. I gave up the idea of keeping things all separate...too much work ...and hey..it's more fun to just say this blog is about me... what I am up to and where I am headed. I am letting you get a close real look at me...and hey that is the spice of life right...not just business articles but my fun, crying, spiritual walk etc.. Having blogs everywhere I can to get my name out there too...but the truth is..this is my main blog and those who really want to be in the know ...Need to know that although I may blog to thousands at one spot...this blog here is the one that I baby and tell all on....the main blog for me. So spread the word if you like or keep it a secret. But if you were my closest friend these would be the conversations we would have...you would get to know the real me. Here is a fun story to think about...I heard this story and I loved it...A guy said he knew all these famous people but never met any of them...How? By reading all their books...Another one to go with this. I was talking to Todd Weiss and he told me that on Twitter one of the reasons people get so close is because they talk every single day to each other-- More than other people they know. This really stuck with me. So there again..you are welcome to talk directly to me too anytime I am on twitter @RuthieAppleby so enjoy the blog and the articles I pull here and there...bringing in new stuff along with old stuff out of my treasure chest of what God has brought into my life. Oh yeah...enjoy the Rooster...I am hearing the Roosters (more than one you know) crow in the morning here if I listen hard.

Up early...Up Late

2010-08-19T02:33:00.000-04:00

I have learned that when I wake up...just to get outta bed and get the day started... because once I wake up I usually don't fall back to sleep. So here I am up at 2:18 in the morning. Did my Bible Study, did some blogging, some dishes talked to my son...hey college students never sleep??? ..

Thinking about eatting a peach too. Walked the dog...who thinks I am his personal asst.

At the new place since August 13th..which is also my Dad's Birthday. Divorce you know...hopefully it will be over very soon. Did go to the house to pick up the rest of my things and noticed the wine glasses in the cupboard. Yep, Already planning on bringing the girlfriends there. I also debated but took my share of tools, etc..that I felt I may need as well. Kinda sucks in away...You get done dirty and then you end up paying for the divorce and really you don't leave with much...but who knows it isn't final and maybe the Lord has a plan even there. So I am keeping the faith on this one. The main thing is that my son will be able to function well, and I think he is. He has been such a man about this whole thing. In the beginning he kept telling me how beautiful I was and how he loved me. This meant a whole lot to me. Eatting the peach now, with a fork may I add. Life moves forward and I am happy to have met Mr. Clay Sweet who is changing my life. I am learning a lot about God and about myself these days. I remember writing in the divorce papers that I want to live a normal life. I mean...without all the temper tantrums...etc.. sometime I may write about the stuff with the ex-rex but these days I prefer to just close the door and forget it. Tommorrow I am going to see my hair dresser Cindy and I am still unpacking. I do have a rooster. Now for a city girl this is going to be some fun...but the truth is I love animals and I am excited about this new adventure. My house is located between a ton of cities and I have the best of all worlds. Although a 40 minute commute every few days is going to keep me in the loop. I am either going to Syracuse or Rochester a lot these days...well, in those areas. I love to travel and drive around so this is no biggy to me..I actually enjoy it. Well better get to those dishes and think about going back to sleep. The peach was perfect and thank goodness Mr. Sweet bought them because it seems that everytime I buy a peach it is too hard or rots before I can eat it. He knows a lot and I am ready and willing to learn. God has been faithful to me and knew what I needed.

How I met Mr. Sweet

2010-08-19T01:58:00.002-04:00

How I met Mr. Sweet...

Okay here is how I met Mr. Sweet...

I don't know why...but for some reason I just couldn't date the guys I knew. It was like God just made me not want to date anyone. So I decided to do the online dating thing. I got to the point where I was having so many offers it was actually a bit annoying...

So I went to check out my dating site and pop up comes Mr. Sweet... He wanted to talk. At first I felt a little annoyed as I wasn't in the mood to talk right at that moment. But did anyway. It was like BOOM LOVE AT FIRST SITE... He had already put me on his favorites in his pics. We immediately started to talk...and talked that first day for like 12 hours. The next few days we talked almost constantly. Mr. Sweet would go to work and as soon as he got home he would get on the computer and start to talk to me. Now, I had been praying about meeting someone and felt like the Lord spoke to me and said that I would meet someone that I would have intimate conversations with. We talked about everything you can imagine. Later we talked on the phone and I just loved the sound of his voice a very nice tenor voice and he made me laugh so hard he was really funny. For about 4 days. We actually feel in love during these conversations. Now we were in big trouble...Why? WE had NEVER MET! These conversations were unbelieveable...the very depth of romance and discussions. I said to Mr. Sweet when we first meet we should Kiss right then as soon as we meet! A pretty bold statement for the little church girl who was pretty stict about my personal life.

The day arrived. Mr.Sweet wanted to take me to the zoo but my family had a fit and didn't want me to ride alone in the car with him...now this is funny and stupid...haa..I said Can we please meet and go to the park? So Mr. Sweet told me he was going to text me when he got to the parking lot at the local grocery store and we would each drive our own cars to the park. I got the message which was I am here and got in my car and drove to meet him. There he was all sweet and cute and he put his arms out as we both knew we were going to have our first kiss. He gave me flowers and we had our first kiss which was sweet. Both a little shy about it. Then we drove to the park. We had a great day and Mr. Sweet had me laughing all day with his jokes. He talked real southern to me and we walked and talked and occasionally he would kiss me. Then he would go home and talk to me all nite on the internet. Yesterday Mr. Sweet and I talked about how shy I was he said on our first date I put my head down a lot and in the second date ...very rarely do people see me like this...means I must have been totally smitten...I was so so shy it was hard for me to communicate at least on our I know I struggled with that! I am so outgoing it is hard to imagine this. Didn't notice this on first date...but Mr. Sweet did....So that is how we met and it is just beautiful.
