I can hear my husband saying, “I told you so.” I downloaded a bunch of iTunesU files this afternoon, and free space on my 16G iPad shrank to 9G. The Apple Store guy told me I have 14 days to return it as long as I keep the box. I’m … Continue reading →
We’re seeing “fairness” at it’s finest. Some of you have noticed the latest trend in airline travel is to charge for more and more things that used to be considered free.

I finally updated my Polar Bear on the Loose editing status bar. I’m using Holly’s HTRYN course to do the revision, and I wasn’t sure how to capture it on the status bar. Word Count isn’t going to work for this, so I finally decided to do it by lesson … Continue reading →
