Books on My Nightstand

08/24/2011 by Sandra Leave a Comment

I am listening to a audio book now “Lightning Thief Percy Jackson and the Olympians” I have not listen to an audio book in a bit and now getting back into them. I rented it from my library as a download and place it on my iphone. They allow you to do that and I have 14 days to listen to it. I love it and have 2 more on my list to download once I am done with these. What’s on your reading list? I need some good suggestions for future reading titles, thanks.

Pen Friend

A nice love story, will begin reading it soon.

 

Sweet Gratitude

Awesome recipes to bake for those special people in your life.

 

I got these at my library, which I use often.  Every once in a while I will want a book for my own and I order it through Amazon or where I can find it at a reasonable price.

What have you lost recently?

Share what you have lost recently?

What have you lost recently? And what are you doing to try to get it back? Or are you now surprised to be glad you lost it?

Recently I lost my iphone when I got on a plan after a lay over at Dallas Lovefield.  I sat down on my seat and the plane was getting ready to take off.  I search for my phone to turn it off and couldn’t find it.  I searched all my bags over and over finally giving in to the fact that I must have dropped it somewhere.  I feel asleep on the flight and dreamed about what could have happened to my phone.  When I woke up I was all okay with the fact that it was lost and all I could do was replace it when I got the opportunity.

I got up to use the ladies room and was walking back and what did I see but my phone under my seat.  Oh wow if I would have had more room I would have jumped for joy, I felt such a relief not to have to do all the leg work to replace it.  Also the fact that it was going to keep me connected to people in case I needed to over the course of the next week.

What Tech Can You Not Live Without?

I have not had my i Phone for too long, and always wondered what all the hoopla was about, why everyone was so into this tech thingy.

When we were getting out of huge debt I canceled our cell phone plans.  I just didn’t want anything with a contract tying up our money.  Took a bit but finally convinced my husband that was the way to go for that time.  We used some minute phone for emergencies only.  Once we got out of debt last January we were finally ready to jump into the tech of the i Phone.

Let me tell you at first I resented the expense the first month it hurt me the second month same feeling.  As I learned how to use it more and more it blew my mind how useful this tech was for us.  I was suddenly hooked  at how much my new little device could do.

Now I feel that this tech is one I can’t live without, well if we ever needed to for the sake of staying out of debt I would.  Yet for the time being this mommy is enjoying it and using it on a daily basis.

As a mommy there is one app for my kids allowance that has been a life saver, no more having to use a paper notebook.  I can add and subtract allowance given and used.  This way my son knows how much he has left to spend at the click of a button.

What one piece of  technology  can’t you  without?

Also, what tech do you wish would disappear from the world?
