Holy, Icicle Batman!

oh, where would I be without....

Each time I go to the Apple Store, I gain knowledge, meet a pretty neat person, and/or have a problem solved. I got a MacBook Pro back in December and bought a one-to-one membership, thinking that for $99/year, i would sure get my money's worth taking a class each week. I wasn't sure how much I could or would learn, but to me it was worth the abyss of possibility.

I love Mac.

I love my iPhone.

I love downloading Apps.

I love iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie....

The list goes on and on.

So, this weekend I signed up for a 3 hour project window to focus on a professional portfolio that I am working on. Within 10 minutes - I met that cool person of the week - Brian, and had a few problems solved. They opened me up to "Pages" a program that has finally closed the door to any need of a PC for me.

I made the big switch from PC to Mac in 2006. There has been one program that I have not found a replacement for and that is Microsoft Publisher. I had spent years learning this software and it was my go to for quick, crafty, publishing.... with options that Word did not have. I had no idea that Pages existed and that it functioned so much like the other Mac programs that I know very well and love. Very, very, exciting!

After 3 hours in the Apple Store, I had laid out the 38 page outline for the portfolio I needed.

A stop at the Genius Bar on the way out and they helped solve the problem of the CD stuck in Doug's computer - for free..... it is always free.

Yes Macs are more expensive. But, yes, they are worth it.

I have a family at the Mac Store. A community that is there for me in my technological need. This may read sarcastic, but is very heartfelt.

Once you go Mac, you never go back.

happiness is...

Happiness is a warm, fat, cat.... even if she cuddles up while I'm trying to write. This is my friend Annie, who only comes out while the boys are asleep.

well, hi.

Another Blog? Really?

Yeah, that is what I have been asking myself. Do I REALLY need another thing in my life that I have to keep up with. I have come to the answer. NO, I definitely do not. That is why this Blog is purely for fun. No rules. It will share the things I love and the times that are convenient. I have tried many times in my life to scrapbook, but I just never finish. This is like my digital scrapbook I guess...

So here it is. I am excited to have a creative outlet with no boundaries.

Thanks for coming along in my ingretable life.
