Today is St. Patrick’s Day. Usually we don’t go all out with the green so much, but this year the Shamrock Run is on Sunday and we’re getting ourselves all “greened up” for that anyway. And, we don’t want to waste a chance to celebrate something, so we’re going out in our green today. We’ve … Continue reading

App of the Week: Fast Camera
I’ve been trying out a new app this week called, Fast Camera. The app name pretty much sums it up. It’s a camera and it’s fast. Like another app I reviewed (Capture), Fast Camera begins doing its thing as soon as you open the app. It immediately begins click, click, clicking. What that means for you is … Continue reading
Yarn along: Come on, Spring!
This week’s Yarn along is kind of fragmented for me. I have a number of things that I am finishing. All that stuff from last week… it had tails. Yep, I hid the tails and pretended they were totally done. Now I need to weave them in. Maybe I’ll finish that tonight while I watch … Continue reading
Selection Sunday & March Madness apps
I love pools. I like the swimming kind and I like the betting kind. In a little over a week I will be enjoying the swimming kind and I’m very excited about that… especially because it’s currently snowing here. Blech. Nice in December. Cruddy in March. But this post isn’t about swimming pools. It’s about … Continue reading
The Motherhood Manual: Who’s the grown up here? or How to discipline your child.
I am fortunate to have two boys who largely do the right thing. Up to this point, we haven’t had any major behavior issues (meaning the authorities haven’t been involved… well, I guess they were once, but that’s a different story for later). They’re mostly nice to each other and to their parents and I’m … Continue reading
App of the Week: Pocket Bracket
I didn’t intend to have this one post today, so consider it a teaser… Selection Sunday is tomorrow and I’ll be telling you about why you need the app Pocket Bracket. Until then, get back to enjoying your weekend!
What really matters and why are we doing this to ourselves?
It’s 3:30 in the morning. Actually it was 3:30 in the morning. Now it’s 4:30. I’ve been lying in bed (laying? in bed- I can never keep those straight… I’m not a chicken, so I’m going with lying) with my thoughts going in circles for an hour now. I’ve mentioned before that when I can’t … Continue reading
iPad new or iPad 2- what’s the difference?
Thursday is usually my “App of the Week” review day, but with Apple just announcing the “new iPad” yesterday, I felt I should throw that in the mix today instead of my typical app post. My app review can wait. So, the new iPad, is it worth it? I would never call myself an Apple “fanboy” … Continue reading
Yarn along: Hats & Cowls
Here I am again with the weekly Yarn along. This last week I finished a bunch of projects, so I’m pretty pleased with myself. First, I told you about my plan for a Shamrock Run hat and showed you the start to my green hat. Well, I finished that… I’m really happy with how it turned … Continue reading
Spring knitting
Start knitting yourself a little spring! As I write this, there’s new snow today, so I’m needing to create a little color and optimism… maybe you are too? Here are some easy little bits of cheeriness for you. Enjoy! Felted Bunny by Claire Garland | Free and Simple Knitting Patterns Bunny Nuggets by Rebecca Danger … Continue reading
