App of the Week: Clear- is it a better “to do” app?
I’m trying out a new app called “Clear,” that I thought I’d share with you. As you may remember from one of my previous posts, I’m kind of a list maker. I even add things to my list after the fact just so I can cross it off. So, an app that’s for us list making … Continue reading

Donuts explain everything
I love this. iPhone Savior: Social Media Explained — With Donuts.
Ha ha ha! …no, really, they’re that funny
A few weeks ago I made up my own little award to give out to people who crack me up. I gave out five of those awards and immediately found three more blogs that I wanted to recognize as LOL worthy. So, even though it hasn’t been very long since my last “awarding,” I’m going … Continue reading
