Ooops!

I forgot that I changed my PC contact e-mail to my new g-mail account (which I am not used to yet and have not been checking at all)...anyways, there was an e-mail from like 8 days ago from the Zambia desk requesting a copy of my college diplomas. Supposedly, the country of Zambia requires a copy of each person's diploma in order to allow them to volunteer. No big deal, I just gotta scan it in and e-mail it back. And then I need to make sure that I check my g-mail account more regularly from now on!

So, I posted my broken car on Craigslist...so far the best offer I have is for $325 (I'm gonna try to get him up to $400)...so I'll have to call and deal with that tomorrow. Chad is coming into town tonight and we are going to the Outback Bowl- Gators vs. ??? (you can tell how much I keep up on my football lol) on Saturday :-)

I was bored tonight and felt that I needed to reinspire myself about this blog, so I spent some time playing around with my template and backgrounds and stuff. Any opinions? Good? Bad? Try again? lol

  2. lol I don't know, I haven't tried yet...but that's what it said to do in the e-mail.....I'm gonna go try to find mine right now and see what I can do. I might have to go to Kinko's or something like that?

  3. I just sent mine into the country desk today. My diploma was too big for my home scanner as well so I just took a picture of it and sent him that, which was fine.

    also, I like your new background, but I've noticed that I prefer pictures as backgrounds so I may be biased.

  4. Thanks Ambrosia! Yeah, when I looked back at the e-mail, I realized it said it could be .jpeg, so I took pictures of mine & just sent it :-) I can't wait for our staging e-mail to come- should be any day now!

  5. You should set your email to get forwarded to the email account you use most often!

  8. hmmmm Meredith, I'm not sure... I did notice that there were a ton of car postings on there, so I feel like your post could easily be lost or overlooked in the jumble. I got at least 10 replies to mine...but I was basically selling mine for junk b/c it was dead (I ended up only getting $300 for it). So, the only thing I can think of for you is maybe lowering whatever price you put in order to attract more attention?
