I'm In Love With My iPad

It's 12:50 am and I am sick in bed, and on my 2nd attempt at blogging from my new iPad 2. I bought it about a week and a half ago and I am still a bit overwhelmed. I don't feel like I'm non-techy, but I am obviously not a computer genius.

Needless to say, I am in love with this magical machine. I take it everywhere...to the point where my friends make fun of me. I just tell myself they're jealous...(I've noticed that the ones who have an iPad, don't tease me. I rest my case).

So after hours of downloading apps with no real purpose, I decided to see what there was for blogging. I researched it. There were not too many choices, but after long consideration of which app was going to get my $2-5, I settled on blogsy. So this is my attempt at using my new app. It seems very cool, however, I started 45 min ago and lost my first post. Let's see if this one actually gets posted to my blog.

Fingers and toes crossed! :)

Happy New Year

The wind is howling outside, the rain beating against the house in a fury...a blustery end to the first day of 2011.  I made my family french toast and bacon for breakfast, had snacks and watched the new Karate Kid in the afternoon, and made ham, mashed potatoes and corn for dinner.  It was a lazy day, spent with the people I love...sans Madi; she spent the night with a friend.  

So I sit here now, contemplating the upcoming year.  I've got my list of resolutions in my head, one of them being  this daily journal; a task I almost failed to complete in time.  Rather than the usual resolutions, I've decided to keep it to these things:

1)  Be patient
2) Be kind
3) Open my mind to new possibilities
4) Embrace change
5) Give 110% of myself in all I do
6) Love without expectation

Happy New Year...to a wonderful 2011!
