Photo A Day July-17 (#PhotoADayJuly)--My addiction

It was kind of a toss-up, but I would have to say my computer, with all its social media options, would be a major addiction (my husband would undoubtedly agree). Facebook, Twitter, blogs on Google...

E & F are for Enjoy some Finer things (#AtoZChallenge)

It seems that often, as our lives have become so busy, we don’t stop to enjoy the finer things (or the not-as-finer things). We need to stop and smell the roses more. A few things I enjoy, in no...

C is for Comb-Over (#AtoZChallenge)

Poof! Google Friend Connect is Gone!

Poof! Google Friend Connect is gone! Well, not exactly “poof.” They gave us fair warning. And by “us” I mean those of us who don’t use Blogger. Several days ago on Twitter I made a comment about...
