Wanda, the Stylishly Organized Helper

Wanda, the Stylishly Organized Helper

Christmas day as I was exchanging Merry Christmas texts with everyone, my sister texted me a picture of her newest Christmas present.  Wanda, the Rumba vacuum cleaner, is the newest member of her family.

Wanda waisted little time getting to work in her new home.  If you look closely at the picture, you’ll see it is an action shot.  She doesn’t like to sit still for long.  Her mission is to keep your home or office free of dirt while freeing your time as well.

My sister, Sarah, marveled at how much dirt Wanda managed to collect.  Having just vacuumed her floors Christmas Eve with her much loved Dyson—which I’ll point out never received a name—Sarah expected Wanda’s task to ...

Shopping on iTunes is so much fun!  All those pretty little apps are so enticing.  You don’t just buy music there anymore or even just music & books.  There are games, trivia, navigation, education, catalogues, finance, food, movies, social media and more.  iTunes currently has 23 different categories from which to choose an app!

Each app can be extremely helpful.  They give you access to information on the spot, tell you what to do next, track what you wear, remind you of the wine you’ve been wanting to try, tell you if a storm is approaching and so much more.

And when you’re feeling like the women in the picture above, you turn to the productivity apps because they ensure your life will be easier if you ...

Technology Woes

Technology Woes

I was reading a book about famous Texas homes the other day.  The pictures were really the reason I purchased the book, but it turned out to be extremely interesting.  Beautiful homes, the architects that designed each home, their background, how they came to use the design aesthetic chosen for each project, the people whom the homes were intended and what they were looking for in a new home.
