P52 Photo Blog : Week # 21

This photo for Week #21 was taken at Ponce Inlet near New Smyrna Beach, Florida.  I love the way a lengthy boardwalk takes you into oblivion in photos.  It was a lovely, sunny and windy morning when my husband and I took a drive over for breakfast. You can hear the ocean waves crashing against the shoreline from this spot so it gives you  a sense of anticipation as you walk.  :)

Ceiva Internet Digital Frame Share Photos Without a Computer

Have you heard of Ceiva?  I think it's the coolest thing for people who do not use computers, particularly grandparents and older relatives.

My 91-year-old aunt has a frame like this that sets next to her favorite chair in the family room.  Others can upload photos via the internet directly to her frame so that she has a new stream of pictures of her favorite people.  She absolutely loves it!  There is a reasonable monthly fee, but what a great gift for a special person in your life to keep in touch through photos.

Losing Weight with Weight Watchers

I'm putting it out here to keep me accountable.   I'll be posting my meals and some tips on this blog for the
next 3 months. (Trial period)  Time to admit I needed some help to lose 10 lbs--20 would be great!  I joined the online version last Wednesday, May 15, so no meetings.

I weigh in each Wednesday and use the eTools.  So far, I've lost 3 lbs the first week.

Week 18 P52 Sweet Shot Tuesday

Here is my photo submission for P52's Week 18.

I am so nervous around high bridges and on our recent trip we had to drive on several of them.  It was very foggy, almost twilight, while on one and boy, my hands were sweating!!!  Thankfully, my husband was driving and I could just close my eyes and grip the handle on the door (like that would help anything)... :)

Back on level ground again!  :)

Ebay Store Reopened : Mrs T's TidBits and Treasures

After four months of weeding through inventory and reorganizing, I reopened my Ebay store this morning.  Yes, Mrs. T.'s TidBits and Treasures is back in business.  :)     With Ebay's new fee schedule which takes effect today, it's a better deal now for store subscribers than it used to be.  I've reduced my inventory from 600+ items to hopefully hover around 150 as I streamline even more.  Check it out at THIS LINK.   For more information, click on the EBAY & AMAZON tab above.
