Have you ever been in love?
Not puppy love. Not I-love-you-today-but-not-tomorrow love. And not I-love-you-because-we're-dating love.
But real, undying, overrated, painful, uplifting, magical love. The kind that makes your blood boil and your butterflies hit the ceiling and you can feel your heart beating through your entire body until your fingers go numb with pleasure. The kind that just at the mention of their name you go crazy.
Love is amazing and in my opinion the old saying of 'It's better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all.' holds true.
We would love to hear your opinions and stories on this very feathery log. :)

Bucket List
Are you prepared to die?
This may be a trivial question to some, but to others, it means the world. Like Josh here, he has terminal cancer and a year.
The minute he came out of that hospital and told us all the news, we all decided that no one was going to be sad. Why? Not because we don't love him, but because there wasn't enough time. After the year we would be sad, but until then we were going to celebrate his life and check off his bucket list.
What is a bucket list, you might be asking yourself. A bucket list is a list (duh) of what you want to accomplish before you.,.how do I put this lightly.,.kick the bucket.
And one that was on all of our lists was world adventure and travel. Which is what brought on the newest segment on Eszbonna's MnMs called the Gypsy Van.
But back to the point to which we strayed off from quite a bit; Write yourself a bucket list and just do it. You shouldn't have to wait until you are dieing to write it or to do it.
Just remember that the point is not to learn how to swim unless your going to do something special with that skill like swimming the St. Lawrence. And have fun with it! Its not a death sentence grocery list, it's just your dreams and aspirations and what you wanted to get out of life. :)

Making Money: Business Part One
Having your own business is an appealing ting to many because you ca be the boss, work when you want, and get paid how much you want. All very appealing, if you ask me. But what about all the negative? Well, we don't deal with that in this log. But if you wish to find that out a Business Troubleshooting log will be coming soon!
Here we are not going to talk about the business building blocks and fundamentals but rather the business in it's self.
Today's business is based on the oldest of entrepreneurial trades: A lemonade stand.
Now, before you stop reading this and continue on saying to yourself, 'who do they think I am, Shirley Temple', just open up your mind a little and think of all the possibilities that come with the simplicity of the lemonade stand. The Girl Guide cookie sales. And school funded chocolate bar sales. Those Girl Guides along must bank in on some pretty hefty cash!
All you need is a recipe, a cause and some motivation to get it going.
Since this log isn't exactly clear on all the details, you can comment or contact us for more information with specific questions you may have. :)

Gypsy Van: Starting Out
Hey there people!
So, for those of you who don't know, the administration here at Esbonna's MnMs is heading out! Were still going to keep you all up on the latest money making opportunities and general matters but now were adding this segment called Gypsy Van!
All of us - myself (Samantha-Lynn), Alex, Josh and Kaitlyn - are off on an adventure! We've packed our camping gear and enough food to last a week or two and crammed it all into my VW Camper Van.
Right now were passing through Toronto, and let me tell you something, traffic sucks @$$. We have been stuck on the same damn street for the past forty minutes and are not moving all that quicker.
Our first stop is to be downtown Toronto, if we can ever get there, and stay for the day.
We'll sleep in the van then move on tomorrow to whereever we feel. If you have any ideas as to where we should go, comment a location! Anywhere around the world!

Making Money: Donate Plasma
I have given out information before on selling your body (get that though out of your head, you nasty), but today I'm going to show you one that truly saves lives.
Sadly my drum roll will not suffice for this because of the stupid title that gives everything away. However, I do believe that this money making opportunity is in need for some sort of big bang; You know, fireworks.
For those of you who don't know what plasma is, it's the clear, yellowish fluid of the blood that transports water and nutrients to all the cells throughout the body. But how does it save lives? Well, medical teams use it for transfusions for people who have suffered shock, burns or trauma.
To do this you simple have to follow a few simple steps. Starting with finding a local plasma collection center and checking your eligibility (you must be eighteen years of age, at least one hundred and twenty pounds, and it must have been at least three to four months since your last donation).
Remember to eat and drink plenty of water before you go and to eat something with sugar when your done (most banks will give you a cookie or donut).
In my experience I earn about $280.oo a year on this.
Good luck and remember that its not just for money, your helping someone who cannot help themselves. :)
