New Toy Tuesday: Christmas Gifts

Remember yesterday when I said I was behind on posts? I wasn’t kidding.

Santa treated me pretty good this (last?) year. My first gift has been a major contributor to my lack of blogging over the last couple weeks.

My Kindle Touch. I luuuurve this thing. I’ve been reading non-stop since Christmas morning. So if you have any book recommendations, send them my way.

Gift two is kindof hard to take a picture of, but you’ve already “seen” it in my last couple posts. Hint:

It’s a macro lens. The AF-S Micro Nikkor 40mm 1:2.8G, to be exact. It’s tiny and cute and lightweight and perfect for taking close-up shots for the blog. It’s nice not to have to stand 8 feet away and zoom for all of my photos now.

And finally, the most exciting gift of all:

A TINY HOUSE! We actually closed a few days after Christmas, and we’re planning to move the last of our stuff by the 23rd (a whopping 4 days before Rita is due). This week will be spent cleaning and painting, and next week we’ll be organizing and decorating. So I probably won’t be too busy at all. Look for lots of blogging in the near future :o)

  1. Excellent blog! Do you have any helpful hints for aspiring writers? I’m planning to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything. Would you propose starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there that I’m completely overwhelmed .. Any suggestions? Thanks!

  2. Hi there! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering if you knew where I could get a captcha plugin for my comment form? I’m using the same blog platform as yours and I’m having difficulty finding one? Thanks a lot!

  3. Hello There. I found your blog using msn. This is an extremely well written article. I’ll be sure to bookmark it and come back to read more of your useful information. Thanks for the post. I’ll definitely comeback.

  4. Does your blog have a contact page? I’m having a tough time locating it but, I’d like to send you an e-mail. I’ve got some creative ideas for your blog you might be interested in hearing. Either way, great site and I look forward to seeing it develop over time.

  5. Hey this is kinda of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding skills so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!
