I love to look back and read my journals from when I was younger. I kept a pretty steady journal all through high school and the first part of college. I have several. I love reading through them and laughing about how dramatic I was, or just downright crazy. Whenever I pick up one of my journals from high school/college I get a little bit sad that I didn’t keep a better journal after I moved to California when I [...]
Ever go into a public restroom, and hold your hand under the sink for about 5 minutes until you figure out that you actually have to turn the water on manually, or start walking away from the toilet only to realize it’s not actually flushing by itself? Yeah, me neither, nope, never happens. It’s so common for public restrooms to have automatic sinks and toilets that when we encounter ones that aren’t, it kinda throws us for a loop. Once [...]
It was a proud day for me. I was dropping my son (who is 3 years old) off at preschool one day. My daughter also used to attend the same preschool when she was that age. The teacher stopped me and said “Sarah! I’ve been meaning to ask you, WHAT DO YOU DO WITH YOUR KIDS???” I gave her a quizzical look, and she responded “they are freaky smart” She admitted that they were smarter than her own kids, and [...]
Overview: If you are seeking an all around laser device for your home office or for your small business, the Dell 2155CDN will do everything that you are seeking. Compared to all of the other options in its class, this laser device offers more bang for the buck. The small business or home user seeking a multifunction device that will handle a great deal of printing might want to look past the Dell 2155CDN. It just isn’t built to handle [...]
At the beginning of January I had a gift card burning a hole in my pocket. I was at the register of the AT&T store and saw the fitbit One. I picked it up, and compared/contrasted it to the fitbit Zip. I thought to myself, “would I really need/use a sleep tracker? Was it worth the extra expense to go with the One? I decided to go for it and purchased the One. I could not be happier with my [...]
As many of you know, Sarah and I are based out of Utah. What you may not know, is that it has been an insanely cold winter this year. And although I have worn through or lost many gloves this winter, I wanted to share a pair that I really have loved and managed to hold onto. These are the NuTouch Gloves by NewerTechnology. They retail for just $19.99, and have held up so well this winter. Unlike a [...]
Last month I was invited to go to simplehuman headquarters to learn more about their company, and their products. With January knocking on the door right now, you definitely want to learn more about what I found out about a company that is producing products for your home with technology to make your life more efficient! Some companies are all about style, some are all about function, what I found to be great about simplehuman products is that they take [...]
Alright ladies. Let’s talk hardware. Sometimes with our laptops, and netbooks, and notebooks we fill up our hard drives and need a little extra room, am I right? Here’s where Kingston comes in. Kingston makes multiple products that give your tech devices more space. Some are installed internally (which means they go inside your computer or laptop), and some externally (which means they just plug in via a USB cable to the outside of your computer or laptop). The thing [...]
I’ve gotten this question so many times in the last little while, that I finally just decided to write a post about it. ”What kind of laptop should I buy?” The problem with the question is that it will be different for everyone. So here are the questions you need to ask yourself when picking out a brand new laptop for yourself! 1. What is the screen size I’m most comfortable with? In this case size really does matter. If [...]

Thank you to LeapFrog for sponsoring this review. For more information about LeapFrog Tag Get Ready for Kindergarten, please visit their website #LeapFrogTag #spon I have a confession to make. I’ve been kind of against the whole Tag Reading system for a long time. I never tried it, but for some reason it bothered me. How dare we decide that a little pen could replace actually sitting with your kids and reading with them. I’m a big proponent of spending [...]
I have made the joke often that there are more computers in the house than people. It’s kinda easy to do when there are only 4 people in the house, and I personally use 3 computers. I have my work desktop, because I work from home full time, and I have my main personal laptop where I do all my personal work, and last I have my XPS 13 Ultrabook, that I use when I travel or when I’m downstairs [...]
