  1. As for the last item: Ghostery is your friend. Seriously, download it immediately. And use DuckDuckGo instead of Google to search.

  2. I’m ever so curious about that delicious looking creation as well!! I’ve had that KonMari book sitting around for a while and will have to get back to reading it given all these rave reviews I’m hearing :)

  3. My partner has a standing desk in his office at home, and it’s amazing! It’s so simple and yet it makes a ton of difference. He is now looking into getting the treadmill desk actually, as standing still for too long can also be bad for joints, back, and muscles.

  4. Hope your move went well! I love the standing desk article (order me a swimming pool desk and a Pringle ball please!), and the ways to get through Monday were definitely needed today!

  5. The two things that caught my attention. One, eleven little way to get through Monday, that’s easy pretend it Friday. Now you really have my attention SLOT MACHINES which I truly love. Been to Vegas five times (does that tell you something) I always scan the place and when my eyes hit that first machine that draws me to it there I go. With slots its just being at the right place at the right time and as Clint Eastwood would say ” Do you feel lucky” if you do sit right down and play. Hey Joy I was lucky Feb. 6th for the tune of 1000 bucks. Was my day and for now I will stay away. LOL Have a good week and now back to making double, double chocolate chips. The recipe says the judges went crazy over it. Will see. Too bad I can’t eat them. Paulette

  6. you should totally konmarie while moving!!! it would be so great. after seeing it everywhere and the library wait list for the book hovered near 200 people for several months, I finally bought the book. I’m a total convert, it feels amazing ;)

  7. I hope you’re getting settled into your new kitchen :)

    And oh my gah no WebMD ever! I’ve basically googled all sorts of pregnancy ‘symptoms’ and I’m 99% certain I’m crazy. and my baby is going to be just like me. I think after page 1 it should have a pop-up that says ‘are you sure you want to keep reading? You’re probably just fine.’
