Decluttering and Vlogging about it

Has anyone been keeping their New Year's resolution?  Did you complete it? My resolution was to de-clutter my home.  I've been reading about it, but learned so much more by doing it.  For instance, I'm in the process of de-cluttering my family room.  It is more of a challenge …

The agony of making a twitter lists how-to video.

I spent the morning looking for a microphone.  Mine is getting old.  I found great reviews to Blue Microphone Snowball Mic.  I brought it home and alas, it was awful.  I found out it was an old verison of the now popular mic.  So now I gotta drive back and return it.  Sorely disappointed.…

Review: Do it Tomorrow App

So I've been using this Do It Tomorrow app on and off for about a year.  What it comes down to is a basic to-do list. It's not my daily to-do list, that's handwritten however I use it as a list of things I would like to get accomplished at some point.  I use it as a reminder.…

Nearing the end of the holiday season usually means last minute shopping, baking, and celebrating.  Then, around the corner, is the New Year.  In the back of my mind, my new year's resolutions are forming, like a de-cluttered house, a larger inventory and my very own website. Proc…
