Card Swap

Do you know "Card Swap"? They are a company in Toronto who buy and sell gift cards for a discounted price. I know the name, but I had never used them before.

We won a gift card at my husband's company's Christmas Party. It's worth $50, but I can only use it at this clothing store that sells cheap, not so good quality products! Plus, we can only buy items on line and pay extra shipping cost as there are no retail stores near by.. the closest store in 2 hours away!

Anyway, I was looking on line for something, but I just couldn't decided what I wanted. In fact, there was nothing I wanted!

I checked out the "Card Swap" website and I found out they would offer me $43 cash for the $50 gift card. The cheque came in the mail today and it was a very easy process. Any unwanted gift cards sitting in your house somewhere?

It was a stormy rainy day here. Snoop is getting tire of this winter weather! 

I'm dreaming of nice warm spring...zzz...zzz

First Step

Today I decided to start writing a Blog. Not sure if I can continue to keep writing, but I thought I would try it anyway to see what happens. It's 2012, the new year! I need to try something new and challenging. Hope this is no so challenging though...

The title of my blog is "One Step Forward Every Day". Hoping to move forward little by little, every day.

I live on beautiful Vancouver Island, Canada, with my husband and our furry white dog Snoop. This blog will be the journal of our daily life, including hobbies such as baking, cooking and sewing. I will also talk about our beloved dog Snoop and post pictures and stories from Vancouver Island. 

Here is my family :) minus me... I am taking a picture!

Yay! I took the first step today!
