In my last post, I shared that we're looking to move somewhere within the continental United States... So far, we have at least narrowed down to the state of Virginia. My sister-in-law lives there and she likes it. She lives in...

Hi everyone! My husband & I are both Army veterans and we're used to moving all over the world. Now that we're both out of the military, we couldn't decide where to make our permanent home. We moved to California because his dad...

aneekebeth @aneekebeth (45) • Lodi, California 3 May 18

Fast Lane/ Passing Lane Safety

aneekebeth @aneekebeth (45) • Lodi, California 3 May 18

We moved from Texas to California and I deeply HATE that the far-left lane isn't used for its intended purpose. In Texas, the "fast lane" is used only to pass. In California, it's where slow people chose to drive the entire time....

I have no coding skills... So, I have been looking for a website builder and found a few: PortfolioBox, Weebly, Squarespace, etc. They basically all do the same thing. They differ in being "user-friendly" and price. After looking...

aneekebeth @aneekebeth (45) • Lodi, California 23 Apr 18

You know... I've been using Swagbucks for a loooong time. Just recently I was able to get a $25 PayPal gift card so that's great. The problem is that I found a bunch of spam in my inbox from my email that I use for Swagbucks. I...

aneekebeth @aneekebeth (45) • Lodi, California 22 Apr 18

When I was younger, I used to visit my family in Mexico every summer. It helped me put things in perspective by getting away from my everyday life and to appreciate the little things. I've been away for YEARS and now I have a trip...

I have recently started using sanguine pencils, the red pencils used by some artists to sketch. More specifically, the Carbothello #645. Before then, I mostly used charcoal pencils, vine, willow, and compressed charcoals. I do...
