Love it. . . Keep it. . .My iphone

This week I’m really lovin’ on my birthday present from the husband….an iphone! I’ve been wanting one for forever….and now I don’t know what I did without it! I’m obsessed. I waited patiently (sort of) for it to arrive on my birthday….and it didn’t. It came five days later….and then I my computer decided it hated the iphone and I couldn’t activate it. So I cried. Yes, I cried…I know it sounds lame but I was just so frustrated. Luckily I got it working the next day….and after 30 minutes on the phone with at&t I was good to go! Totally worth all the trouble.
So now, I need some apps! So far I’ve added Facebook, Words with Friends, Flixter, iBooks, and Photoshop Mobile. What apps do you love?

    I just got my first iphone in May for my birthday before the 4G came out (didn't realize it at the time). I'm still on 3G, but I'm obsessed too!

    Some apps you need to check out are Fandango, Errands, RedLaser, Groupon and Grocery IQ. Oh and my favorite game app Diner Dash! 🙂

    When I travel I get obsessed with Flight Control, Word Scramble, Sudoku, Paper Toss, and Parking Lot. Waterslide is fun for 15 minutes.

    How sad. I just summed up my 9 hour flights in two sentences.

    Have fun!

To manage stress, I try to take frequent breaks, remember to smile and laugh every day, carve out some alone time every morning, exercise daily, and turn to friends and other resources available to me if I need extra support.

Gentle. That’s the word I’ve chosen for 2021. Gentle. That’s the word I’ve chosen for 2021. Gentle with my children. Gentle with my family. Gentle with myself. Gentle with those who believe differently than I do. Couldn’t we all use a little more gentleness? After 8 years of raising babies and a crazy 2020 it’s what my mind, body, and soul needs. And my kids and family need it from me too. Have you chosen a word for 2021? If so, let me know what it is! (and thank you @bluegrassred for the word inspo! I heard her talk about it a few times on @pantsuitpolitics and I couldn’t get it out of my head. Exactly what I need for this year!)
