Miss Now Mrs

Admittedly, I am not the best at the details—i.e. I have lived in Seattle for 3 years and still have a California driver’s license. Who has time to go to the DMV?! I have been married for over a year and have wanted to change my name but the steps to do so are daunting. Then I found http://www.missnowmrs.com/ where you can pay $29, answer a bunch of questions on their website and then all the filled out forms appear (as PDF's) complete with marching instructions.

Just what I needed to cross this BIG "to-do" off my list.

Be Worldly!

I love to travel. It fills my soul and reminds me that there is a world beyond my usual. There are so many people on this earth; all with incredible ideas, thoughts, opinions and passions. Which brings me to Kiva.org. While it is hardly a secret web site anymore (featured on Oprah and the Today Show) it is amazing. Kiva.org lets you lend money to budding entrepreneurs in the developing world. They have an incredible model that lets you lend money (in all increments), follow your sponsor’s progress, get paid back and then re-invest (if you want). How cool is that?! Here is to a diverse world full of ingenuity and lending a hand to our global family!

Picture this!

I no longer have photo albums but photo folders on my computer. That’s cool and all but what happens when you get that winning photo of you and your best pal?! This is where Pic Pad comes into the picture (sorry!). They take your best shot and put it onto blank or lined notepads. I just had one done and it looks fab! Now you can remember your awesome photo skills & your best pal while you are writing your to-do list!
