#PhotoaDayMay: Technology

So far this month, I have shared pictures of my workspace, which consists of my laptop, mouse, headphones, and a mug of coffee, as well as my Nook. I think we have already sufficiently covered the topic of technology. Damn you, Photo a Day May prompt! So with nothing else to turn to, here is a picture of my laptop’s keyboard.

This picture came out a lot better than I thought it was going to. I like how the keys blur out and look as if they go on for miles, and there isn’t a whole lot of cat hair or dust trapped between the keys. Today’s picture is a surprising success!

Book Review: “Pinterest For Dummies” by Kelby Carr and Giveaway

Pinterest has, seemingly overnight, become the hottest new social media website. I have been an avid pinner for the past several months and I absolutely love it. I can, and have on many occasions, spent several hours on Pinterest, and whenever I introduce the website to someone, I always warn them of its amazing ability to lure you in and keep you entertained until you realize that there was something you were supposed to be doing. It’s hard to believe that Pinterest was initially launched in 2010, only because it is just now becoming so popular, but it just goes to show you that in the internet world. it may take years for what you are doing to catch on, but it could very well have the ability to catch on in a big, …

#PhotoaDayMay: What You’re Reading

I am currently reading the novel Sister by Rosamund Lupton, for the second time. I got this novel on a whim for my Nook, pictured above, after seeing it appear on Oprah’s Summer Reading List last year and reading some absolutely glowing reviews of it. It is a thrilling and intense read; I was actually surprised with how much I really enjoyed it because I didn’t expect it to be as good and as captivating as it is. Even though I obviously know how it ends, since I have already read it once before, I am enjoying it just as much the second time around, which is pretty impressive in itself.

#PhotoaDayMay: Something You Do Everyday

Computer, coffee, and headphones at the kitchen table, also known as my workspace, and of course my blog dashboard is up on the computer screen. This is pretty much what my daily workday looks like. Sometimes I move to the couch if I’m having more of a relaxing day and can watch some television between blog posts and emails, but most of the time this is it. It’s a rather nice thing to call “work.” Sometimes I forget how fortunate I am to have taken this hope of mine of writing for a living and running a website and to have successfully turned it into my reality. Fortunate indeed.
