    5 August 2013 / 0 Comments

    Raise your hand if you’re ready for the Android phone to get some love… raises hands and jumps around wildly I was one of those people who waited with baited breath for Instagram to come to Android. In fact, I like to think that I was one of the first to download the app. My kids were all “We have a hipster mom; snapping pics of her food and filtering it to death.” Whatevs, kids… Instagram is all about sharing stories with pictures, connecting with friends, and making memories. I use Instagram to share morning coffee with my friends and offer words of encouragement. But over time, I got tired…

    Instagram Love {This or That Thursday}

    16 August 2012 / 0 Comments

    I’m one of those people who begged and pleaded for Instagram to come to Android. So when it finally became available, I downloaded it almost immediately and then proceeded to forget about it. I know, right? How much sense does that make? I’m not exactly how long I went without using it but one day, I was playing around with my cell phone camera and I decided to try Instagram. Oh. My. Gosh. What had I been waiting for? I was absolutely smitten. And from that moment on, I’ve had to stop myself from snapping every moment of my life. It really is quite addicting. Here are a few of…

    Things That Leave Me Scratchin’ My Head {Coffee Talk}

    19 July 2012 / 5 Comments

    1. I don’t know about you but when Apple introduced Siri, I was totally jealous. I also had the same flood of envy when Instagram photos started popping up all over Twitter. But now Android user an have their own talking assistant on their phones too. Thanks to my friend, Cathy, at Minister of Style, I found out about Assistant for Android and I’ve been all over it. All you have to do is click here, download and start talking. You can customize the avatar as well as the vocals. So. Much. Fun. 2. Did you see George Zimmerman’s interview with Sean Hannity on Fox?

    Are You a Better Mom Because You Have a Smartphone?

    15 April 2011 / 8 Comments

    I think so.  Dori, my Droid, is like an electronic appendage.  It’s on my desk when I’m at work.    It’s on my hip when I’m cooking dinner.  I sleep with it by my bed.  This from a girl who initially resisted the cell phone out of fear of black helicopters, government tracking and way too much access for everyone.  Yeah, I know, I’m a little paranoid but that just adds to my charm.  But ever since my husband talked me in to getting my first cell about 12 years ago I’ve been hopelessly addicted.  I’m one of those people who uses my family members’ upgrades so that I can get…
