The Singing Christmas Tree show

Great music!

Tech no?

I had to chuckle at the guy who has an iPhone and iPad plus his laptop at his desk but reads the paper newspaper at lunch.

Riding in the back.

Debunking all the complaints about riding in the back of the van.

Meeting an author was cool.

Book Talk and Signing with Marissa Meyer

Wow!

The Olympic Mountains

Email Screaming

Who decided that using all caps equaled yelling?

Thinking of summer

I had thoughts about summer amidst all the snow and ice.

Tech Savvy?

Wait, am I more tech savvy than my children? I find myself explaining a lot of things.
Shouldn't it be reversed?

Winter Storm Casualty

Our butterfly bush was a casualty of snow and ice.

Getting Out

It was good to get out today and do some errands.  Being cooped up at home for 3 days can take it's toll.

Evernote:Social Moving

From Evernote:

Social Moving

This year I moving from Facebook to Google+.   I like it better because you can send messages to specific groups instead of everyone.
My goal is to get others to also make the move.

Housebound

For the past two days I have not left home as I normally do for work because of snow and now ice.  Fortunately, I was able to participate in all of my scheduled conference calls and perform my PM functions that I would normally do at my desk in Bellevue.

This has helped me not go completely mad.  Hopefully that will continue into a potential day three because temperatures are still at freezing.

Hiatus

I took a hiatus on this blog for a year apparently.  My niece's blog has inspired me to start again.  The purpose for me is to record some of my thoughts that come to the top of my mind.

I may not know why they surface but you are welcome to comment and attempt to answer my leading question, What does it all mean?
