H is for How To.

When it comes to learning “how to” on our new Mac, I am grateful that my husband purchased the One to One sessions. Now I can set up times to go in and learn whatever I need or want to about my new Mac. I can also sign up to attend free workshops on a variety of Mac topics. This have already proved useful in my learning “how to“.

G is for Guilty.

Which is what I feel a slight twinge of as I get ready for a trip. I am leaving. Just for fun. And am leaving my husband and son here. I know I am going to have fun. And I know they will be fine. Like I said, it’s only a small twinge of guilty-ness that I feel!

F is for Free Kids’ Tickets

What a great way to introduce your kids to the theater. According to a recent Theater Under the Stars eBlast:

“TUTS encourages you to expose your children to the arts by making a
family trip easy and affordable through the Kids Night on Broadway
program at South Pacific and Little House on the Prairie. With the
purchase of one adult ticket to the first Wednesday evening performance
of the run (Wed. March 10 for South Pacific and Wed. April 28 for Little
House On The Prairie), TUTS offers you one free ticket for a child under
the age of 18. Your Kids Night experience includes interactive games
for the children in the grand lobby, a souvenir Playbill and other fun
treats. For tickets visit TUTS.com and use promo code KNOB.”

What a treat! Free tickets for the kids to great live theater productions!

E is for Easy Dinners.

These days I am looking more and more for easy dinners. I love recipes that are simple, use few ingredients and are easy on the pocketbook. I rely regularly on my crock pot, which is basically the dinner cooking itself! I love nutritious, filling and easy dinners!

D is for Drained.

I was sick for two days this past week. And even after laying in bed for two days and doing nothing significant today, I still feel drained. Call it lazy, call it worn out, maybe it’s being out of my vitamins, whatever, my body just feels drained. My husband says that it’s all the working out and that my body finally forced me to take a rest. Maybe so. Whatever the fact, I’ve got to get over this drained feeling!

C is for Computer.

So far I am enjoying my new computer. There is a lot to learn switching from a PC to a Mac, but it’s all good. I think it will be fun when I am able to learn all I need to on the new computer. I will be able to do so much with all the special package features that come with it. I am going to attend as many classes and workshops as possible to learn how to be a great user on this new computer.

B is for Back to Business.

It seems hard to get back to business after the holidays. Back to getting up early. Back to a routine. Back to school work and other regular chores. I admit I sure got lazy over the holidays. I know it was high time for my family and me to get back to business as usual!

A is for A New Year.

It seems as if every new year brings hopes of goodness and happiness ahead. After going through a rough year, our family is ready for some change this year. The prospects a new year bring are always bright and hopeful. Here’s to hoping for the best in this upcoming new year!

Z is for Zillions of gift ideas.

It seems everywhere I turn this season, there are zillions of ideas for gifts. But the best gifts are the ones that fit the recipient. As for my family, they don’t want much. Actually, my daughter and husband both asked for something simple! They asked for iTunes online gifts. This makes it easy for me and them both! I can simply get them a gift card to access the iTunes Store and then they can go in and make the selections they want!

I also found an offer on the Facebook iTunes Fan Page. I am going to send it to my husband. If you sign up to become a fan, then you can download 20 free songs!! This is better than sifting through the zillions of gift ideas out there to find the perfect one!

Y is for Year End.

I can’t believe another year is nearly over. This year has been pretty hard for our family but it has gone by pretty quickly in a way too. Hopefully this new year will bring more peace, happiness and new things for our family. The Year End is a time to look ahead and hope for a better tomorrow.
