Praises of a Wife and Mommy

Sun and warm weather please stay!  We like walking, biking, wagon rides, and park playing!  

I personally have never thought much about the apps on my phone and how they could be collecting information like this.  A good read for sure!  Thanks for letting me repost this article.  Most mobile users know that apps frequently collect private information. While it’s  true some people aren’t aware of it, most who are aware tend to be indifferent to the idea. But, don’t we deserve a little more info about what app makers actually do with the data they extract from our mobile devices? An article by  NBC’s Bob Sullivan   describes a flashlight app that tracks a smartphone user’s location. It was surprising to many folks to find out that such a handy, seemingly harmless app would be tracking their physical whereabouts, and you have to wonder why an app as simple as a flashlight would need to know that. What’s more distressing is many apps collect device IDs, photos, contacts and even our gender. Jason Hong  at Carnegie Mellon Unive...

The other night the hubby and I went on a date.  We went on a trail walk and had a great time enjoying the warm and sunshine.  We came to this neat bridge and railroad crossing so I knew I had to get a picture.   When was the last date you've had with your husband/wife?  

Let’s help April raise some funds for her Light the Night Walk with a Thirty-one Fundraiser! I, Lisa, will donate 20% of all of the sales from the fundraiser to Light the Night Walk. If you are not familiar with Thirty-one here is a great video that our Founder is going to tell you who we are. Not only are 20% of the proceeds being donated but everyone who makes a purchase is entered into a  drawing to be the mystery hostess.  Want to earn extra entries for the mystery hostess? If you agree to host a party you will get a second  entry into the drawing. You can host an in home party if your near Wausau, WI, catalog/online party, or  even a Facebook party! Ready to shop, here’s the link! http://tinyurl.com/lightthenight31 Great May special, just in time for summer! Spend $31 and get any of the thermals for ½ price! Check out the brand new Fresh Market Thermal; it’s big enough to fit a 9” by 13” pan plus more. Great for potlucks!...

I am praising God for the warm sunshine the last few days.  Soaking up all this Vitamin D has put a smile on my face and my children.   Last night we made some amazing stuffed pork chops and corn on the cob and all I can say is YUMMY in my TUMMY!  :)

Thank-you Quiet Mischief and Company for sending me these matching mother/daughter bracelets to review.  All opinions are 100% mine and I was not paid for this review.   My  daughter will smile with happiness for anything pink.  Pink mixed with purple in a wearable form and she was thrilled.  Then on top of all that fun knowing mom has the matching one and she was ecstatic!  I loved sharing the moment with my daughter when I said I had something special for her and for me.  It has been 4 days since I gave the bracelet to her and neither her nor I have taken it off.   The neat thing about Quiet Mischief is they will custom make any order with any color.  :)  They also take the time to ask your wrist length so our bracelets fit perfect!  No fear of them falling off or cutting the blood supply off.   So Mother's Day is fast approaching so get your orders in today!  Order your Mother/Daughter Bracele...
