I hope everyone who participated in NaNoWriMo finished and got your certificate and all the cool discounts. I'd love to give away my 50% off code for Scrivener so if you're interested, let me know in the comments. I have the application and use it every so often, but my go-to is Word. I believe...

A week late but here they are: Husband replaced his first MacBook with the MacBook Air. He's had his first one since 2006 and it's still running great. The kids have it now. Mail from my penpal in the U.K. We've been penpals since I was a sophomore in high school. The weird thing is,... Continue Reading →
