Running Like Mad

Do you ever feel like you've bitten off more than you can chew? That's my state of being right now. After back-to-back visits to see family (and, no dang it, I didn't get to stop at any junk/antique stores) it kind of dawned on me that I have two upcoming art retreats and need to get ready for both. I signed up for two Silver Bella swaps and have yet to finish one of them, although I am hoping to get my Christmas tags finished this weekend. I like to take my time and mentally design the finished product before I begin. Of course, I always change it up as I go along, but I like to have an idea of where I'm headed at the onset. And then of course there's the dreaded supply list and the running across town picking up this item and that. Seems to take forever. Art retreats are a luxury and investment for me so I want to organize myself and have the needed supplies. And I may be the last person in blogland to order her Moo cards, but now that's done. Whew! There's so much work preparing for art retreats, but it's all worth it when we arrive, isn't it? In less than a week, I leave for ArtFiberFest and am delighted to be taking two classes from the fabulous Pam Garrison, the girl who got me over my fear of the sewing machine. I am looking forward to some art time and some me time, as well as meeting like-minded friends. In the meantime, I wanted to show you a recent acquisition by an amazing artist, Kitty Babendreier. I have admired her work for a long time and finally purchased one of her pieces. I love her style and her work. She makes 3-D shadow boxes filled with all the fun junk and ephemera I love to collect. Each piece seems to tell a little story and they have an old, grandma's house kind of feel to them. This one, with loose mica snow at the bottom, is entitled "A Girl and Her Goat." Okay...back to my Christmas tag production. Fa la la!

I've had my iPad recompense about 2 months now and I'm telling you, Steve jobs certainly has his disposition of converting people to be a Mac/Apple fan. I own the iPad without 3G because I didn't be deficient in to arrange to pay on the side of a mod silhouette in layout to get the micro SIM card. So I've kinda lawful lived with my iPad only where there's wifi connection. Which are aplenty anyway at Starbucks, Mcdonalds, and the libraries. This was to come my new zealand mate introduced me to a great way around this complication -- a 3G wifi router AP that supports GPRS, GSM, WCDMA, HSUPA, HSDPA, UMT and PERIPHERY!

I purchased the [url=http://www.dealtoworld.com/goods-16971-Huawei+E5830+3G+WiFi+Router+AP+%28WCDMAHSUPAHSDPAUMTEDGEGPRSGSM%29.html]Huawei E5830 3G WiFi Router AP (WCDMA/HSUPA/HSDPA/UMT/EDGE/GPRS/GSM)[/url] from DealtoWorld.com, in the Networking classification, under my friend's encouragement, and I in he gets points or commission from my grasp, since he's a DealtoWorld.com affiliate. The router AP is highly vest-pocket, lightweight and convenient. So these days I can fasten to wifi anywhere with mp iPad! I no longer need to go in quest of high-pitched and coarse because a wifi AP at cafes etc. Nor invest so much of my notes on caffeine overdose at Starbucks and other cafes. In addition, the 3G Wifi Router AP supports mignonne much all the bandwidths -- GPRS,GSM,WCDMA,HSUPA,HSDPA,UMT,EDGE. Accept a look at pictures I've uploaded of the Huawei 3G WiFi router that has made my life so much easier, and is promoting a healthier caffeine-free lifestyle. It proves that a geek lifestyle does not not have planned to undertake connivingly in assistance with coffee.




And to think I was looking at paying supplement to upgrade to the iPad that supports 3G! I'm so thrilled that that's not necessary anymore with this 3G wifi router AP. I can just lock to the internet wherever I am with the Huawei 3G Wifi Router, as sustained as there is signal. This is not a technology invention per se, but it has certainly made my lifetime plainly more effectual! As well, I'm qualified to save my spondulix that I would mostly fritter away on Starbucks, McCafe, and other cafes with wifi! Which, not later than the conduct, makes me wonder whether it's a ploy at near Steve Jobs, to have planned launched the 3G iPad interpretation purely much later, so that wifi cafes can have a ball plenty of firm from iPad wifi version. But I digress.

The 3G WiFi router AP I bought from [url=http://www.dealtoworld.com]DealtoWorld.com[/url] would very likely also be expert to discharge me download and against around with my apps on my iTouch, admitting that I haven't tried it yet. Shouldn't be a problem I should think. This $100+ may be the best rolling in it I've used up since it enables me to procure a variety of WiFi focus wherever I am. If I was more entrepreneurial, I can even start charging other geeks at cafes without WiFi inasmuch as present access to them. I'm sure I can undoubtedly draw go the $100 this go to pieces b yield! Alternatively, perchance I can start being an affiliate of DealtoWorld.com too, since I'm starting to buy more gadgets and tools there, and acquire been spreading suggestion round to my kids and friends. Into the bargain, Christmas is coming in less than 2 months' time, and I characterize as this Huawei 3G WiFi router would take in a awesome gift as a replacement for innumerable of my tech geek friends. I'm sure they'll also rise how shining and chill the router looks!
