I gulped and bought Things for iPad. I have Things for Mac and love it, but my Mac Mini stays here in Central Texas, so I can’t take it with me to update my tasks or next actions (in keeping with the Getting Things Done terminology). At $19.99, that’s the … Continue reading →
I’ve decided to stick with the 16G model iPad. I refocused on my main reason for buying it as well as learned to use some features of iTunes I didn’t understand before. What are those features, you’re asking? Ummmmm, how to upload content from the iPad to iTunes, for instance. … Continue reading →

My case has been decided, and I have a baseline percentage of disability. I’m entitled to VA healthcare. The VA makes no bones that this care is provided contingent upon federal funding. They encourage me to maintain any other health insurance I have in addition to VA coverage. I do … Continue reading →
It’s not a jacket, but it is lightweight, vented, and has long sleeves. It’s a Magellan Lake Fork Fishing Shirt, and I found it at Academy for $19.99. It should serve to protect my arms from foliage as we work to clean up the overgrowth behind the shop. We’ll see. … Continue reading →
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 →
