Free Mobile App – Vonage Mobile

I remember 14 years ago when we first moved to the U.S., researching Vonage services because we needed a second phone line for my husband’s job.  Fast forward to this past month when I now was researching it again, but this time it was for their app, Vonage Mobile.

DVDs Are Not Fire Kindling

Moving into a new home is so exciting.  When we were looking for a house here in Texas we had certain features that we were looking for, surprisingly enough the very first house we looked at had them all, and was in the end the one we bought.  The house is 840 sq ft larger than the condo we had in South Dakota, but interestingly we had quite a bit more storage in the condo then we do here in this home now.

Case in point -> this is where our DVD collection is right now.

Product Review – TravelWise Packing Cube System

We do quite a bit of traveling around here.  I’m kind of proud to consider myself an “expert” packer, which is a handy skill to have especially with airlines charging premium fees to check luggage. 

I was intrigued when I was asked to review EatSmart’s TravelWise 3 Piece Packing Cube Set, a product that would make packing even more convenient is right up my alley.
