It keeps happening. My feed reader gets away from me. I try to purge feeds, but I keep adding more and more new ones. I can’t help it. The lists of unread blog posts grows faster than I can keep up. They multiply exponentially, I’m certain, because it takes no time at all to have [...]

Now that Christmas is over, it is time to put away all the toys and goodies that have made their way into our homes. It’s times like these when we realize that maybe we had too much stuff to begin with! I believe that everything should have it’s place. That’s why we make room before [...]
