What Do You Do? Part 2
In my last blog, I was about to break down, because after months of job hunting and not even being able to gain employment at the Dollar General, I was at wit’s end. As I said in my last post, I was about to go to work 12 hours a week […] http://dlvr.it/1DhX26

What Do You Do?
One thing I dread about going to the Social Media Alliance of Chattanooga meetings is the inevitable question: “What do you do?” It’s one of those questions that, as a Jane of All Trades, starts to send me into a panic attack. No one has time to listen […] http://dlvr.it/17gmG4

My Year in Review
One thing I’ve learned about myself in the last few tumultuous weeks is that I love making lists. So, with the year drawing a close, I thought I would make a list of this year’s highlights (and low lights) in my life. And maybe afterward, I will be able to come up with a few […] http://dlvr.it/1303Lb
Long Story Short….
I used to be engaged and was planning a wedding; now I’m not.
There is no The Boyfriend anymore.
Wow. That has taken me over two months to write.
But never fear–after Christmas I am back with a lot of new stories photos, and facets to this site! Assuming the world doesn’t end, 2012 is […] http://dlvr.it/11lbhG

The Ups and Downs of Downloading from Nintendo
Ten years ago, the idea of being able to get multimedia content legally without physically going to buy it was only just getting going. The music download business was on the up, but alternative methods for purchasing other types of media were pretty much non-existent. However, things then started to turn a few years later […] http://dlvr.it/r3dGK
Sunday, Sunday, Sunday!
Since working on our future new home, we have been looking for a “vicious guard dog” to protect us from any future copper wire thieves. We were hoping to find a rescue dog, a German Shepherd mix, or some other breed mix that gets a bad rep, like a Rottweiler or a Doberman. I may […] http://dlvr.it/qhQpp

Adventures in Cake Pops
The other day, I read a story on BlogHer about a disastrous experience with cake pops. It seems like I have been seeing cake pops everywhere these days, and I could never decide if I thought they were a good or terrible idea. I mean, cake on a stick. What won’t we […] http://dlvr.it/qNYLX

Remodeling, Repairing, Restoring
It looks like I am almost a homeowner! My grandfather has given me one of his old properties, a duplex in town. This duplex has a lot of sentimental value for me: I was apparently made there (eww), I lived there when I was born, and even weirder, it is where the Pre-Hub lived when […] http://dlvr.it/mHcsn

Moving
Today our last day at our apartment, so we will be spending the next few days (weeks? months?) moving from here and hopefully fixing up a new place. Until then, I’m not sure where we’re going.

Apple Sucks
I have never understood the appeal of Apple products. They just seem like such a pain in the bum. The Boyfriend has been fiddling around with The BFF’s old iPhone, and do you know how he has to get it to do anything? By blowing in it. 1980s Nintendo-style. However, I […] http://dlvr.it/ZTrLK

Using the Samsung Galaxy Tab for Work and Business
The Samsung Galaxy Tab is a great way to quickly manage all of your business needs. In one small device, you can surf the web, make notes, listen to music, manage your finances, bargain shop, keep up with your calories…there is pretty much nothing it can’t do. I thought people were being over-dramatic when they […] http://dlvr.it/Z1nzt
