My View.

This was how my world looked for most of yesterday. I "took to my bed"  and ate lots of chocolate, downed some ibuprofen and watched some serious tv! YOW! I am also reading this great book "Fireworks Over Toccoa" and had fair trade chocolate from Trader Joe's. Thank you, Bradley W.! xo

My birthday is not until next week, but Brad surprised me with my gift last night. I must say, he's a great gift giver because he thinks of things I don't even KNOW that I want!  He bought me an iPhone! It's a 4S and is refurbished. Almost new (like I care, I've had the same droid for a few years now. With a TERRIBLE phone camera! You may have had the pleasure of seeing some of those phone pics on this very blog. Lucky you. blurry...bad...yep.) I LOVE it. I didn't even know I wanted a new phone until I received it. Everything is user friendly and easy. Thank you Apple peeps. I can send a text or an email without my keyboard adding 10 W's that I never touched. It's like that commercial for Healthy Choice meals (I think) "I had always thought I hated the sound of children's laughter all these years. Turns out, I was just hungry."  Me: "I had always thought I just hated phones for the past few years. Turns out, I just hated that particular phone I had!"


Still trying to load instagram on my new phone, but at least for now, the photos actually have a decent quality to them. Curtis this morning...

You may have also noticed I have a widget/"thing" at the top of my page for chipin. No pressure, I just love animals and it's for a dog that was saved by a shelter and needs help. He's got a foster home but has had mange, they've tried everything and can't get rid of it. The dog is seeing a specialist, but the bills aren't cheap.  Feel free to check it out and donate even $1 if you like. Easy and you can feel good after. I felt better after donating than I did while eating my candy bar. Go figure.



Finally...watch this viral Instagram video if you want a good laugh. It's to the tune of "Photograph" by Nickelback and is hilarious!!

TOT~

Thanks so much! I have found a cover that I love- it's chevron with yellow and gray. Do I really even need it? Not really.

Glad you like the widget! I just want to help!

Hope you're having a great weekend! Let me know your fave apps...I've got a few but they're pretty basic. What am I missing out on?!
