WHAT'S NEW AROUND HERE
I'm enjoying what I call my favorite "season," June! I love June here. Not too hot (usually) but the crazy chance of spring snow has also passed. I love the breezes, the flowers, and all the green!
The biggest thing that's new around here is that we got a new couch. It probably seems a dumb thing to announce on a blog, but this is not just any couch.
I have a bad back, so lumbar support and power recline are a must for me these days. We picked this couch (the Kinsey) from Living Spaces for those reasons, but before leaving the store, one of us said, "What do these other buttons do?"
You. Guys.
The other buttons are power headrest, HEAT, and MASSAGE!!
Massage. For real.
And that's what makes it blog-worthy. :)
One other great thing this week is that I got another taker who wants to talk with me about the difference between temporary and permanent cloud storage. WOOT! It was cute because she said, "This is great because I've been thinking about talking to you about this for a while."
I still have a summer goal of talking to 69 people, so please share this with anyone you know who loves taking pictures & videos and wants them to be preserved and accessible even after they pass on. I do most of these over Zoom! And it's just such life-changing information.
Now off to the spotlights from last time! I can't wait to see what you share (old posts or new) this time. Enjoy exploring!

Thanks for another great party, Jennifer! Wishing you a wonderful start to a new school year. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on Forever Cloud, too - I always learn so much about the digital world from you (which has definitely been an areaI continue to grow in). Have a wonderful getaway, too!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Laura! I love hearing this! :) And thanks for your well-wishes on the school year and getaway. So happy you're participating in the linkup. We love seeing the creative ideas you have to share.
Deletehi jennifer just shared the buckets and signed up for your newsletter, laura in Colorado
ReplyDeleteOh, that's fantastic, Laura. Thanks for sharing your darling post on decorating with buckets! I'm so happy to hear that. I hope you'll really enjoy the newsletter as well. (P.S. I'm in Colorado, too!) So happy to have you as part of the linkup!
DeleteThank you so much for the feature, I so appreciate it. I added your badge to my blog. Your trip looks amazing! I would love to go to London.
ReplyDeleteOf course--it was a well-loved post. :) Thanks for adding the badge to your blog--it's always nice to celebrate and it's also great to reach more bloggers. Thanks for being part of our linkup here! Yes, it was such a fun trip. I just love London. I was surprised at how enamored I am now with the Isle of Wight and Dover, too!
DeleteJennifer, as always, thank you for hosting this wonderful link-up. Happy 16th blog-versary! I love visiting your blog, and you always share great information. Have a great week.

ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Laura. :) I really appreciate that. I'm glad you (and Laurie) will look forward to my new series. It's pretty simple, but I'm excited to share. I'm so glad you are enjoying my ideas for preserving memories. Thank you so much for being a part of the party and everything you bring to Will Blog for Comments. :)
DeleteHappy New Year, Jennifer! I was thinking today that I also might need to stop collecting nativities although I love finding new ones when I travel. At some point I need to start downsizing! LOL! Happpy belated anniversary! As always, thanks for the party!
ReplyDeleteMe, too! I love finding new nativities when I travel also. For me, it might need to be more of a "give away the ones I don't love" rather than stop collecting them. ha :) You're welcome, and thank you for being a great part of our linkup!
DeleteYour book is lovely, Jennifer, what a great way to chronicle a year. thanks so much for hosting this party. I love to come here to share ideas. Have a wonderful week. So glad your foot is healing nicely.

DeleteYour 2025 yearbook is such a treasure, Jennifer! You are an inspiration for savoring memories! I'm so glad that your healing is going well, too! It must feel so good to be on this side of the surgery! Thanks, as always, for hosting this special link up! Happy February!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Laura! :) I appreciate that so much. Happy to have you joining our linkup!
DeleteJennifer, as always, thank you for hosting this wonderful link-up. It's appreciated. 😊 And thank you for featuring my upcycled glass Valentine's jars. Aw, that was such a fun project to work on. 💖✨ And a big thank you for giving my bloggers' dos and don'ts a shout-out! That was so kind of you. Wishing you the best during your foot surgery recovery. Take care and have an awesome week. 🌟
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome--and thank you for sharing your fun projects with us. I couldn't help myself sharing your "bloggers' dos and don'ts"--it really was one of my favorite reads from the last couple of weeks, and I think you said everything so well and gave us all such important reminders. Thanks for the well-wishes. I'm now walking without the boot and getting back into things, which is nice. My goal today is go for a 15-minute walk in the sunshine. :) Have a great week, too!
DeleteThanks so much, Jennifer, for the feature for the thrifted crafts. Learning a new skill is always fun and a little intimidating but fun wins out. Your new on-line course sounds really interesting. I really appreciate all the inspiration and information you have on your blog.
ReplyDeleteLynne, Thrifting Wonderland
I agree--sometimes it's a little intimidating (or downright scary) to learn a new skill, but the process is fun anyway. :) Thank you--yes, I'm hoping the online event at the end of April will be both helpful and fun! I'd love to have you join me. And thank you so much for your kind words about my blog. :) Thank you for joining us in our linkup, Lynne!
