Henry Cavill & Kaley Cuoco Together... Inevitable

There's no doubt that Kaley Cuoco is attracted to Henry Cavill and vice a versa ... she was Wonder Woman after all. 

Here's hoping they both have some laughs together.

Perk #3 of Working From Home: Getting the Funk Out!

Today, January 27th, in Kansas City it is 70 degrees at noon and dare I say downright HOT if you're in the sun. 

 I'm throwing all the windows open and airing out the house. Getting the winter funk out of here before the temps drop to the teens by the 29th again.

Confession #4: I WANT to Live In a Glass House

I dream about houses.

Quite frequently.

All kinds of houses from contemporary to colonial, California ranch to stone and gigantic castle like houses.

There are 6 that seem to make the rotation in my head at night but the one I like the most is an all glass house.  It sits high in huge Sycamore or maybe it's an Oak tree, in the woods....

The house is all glass: floor, sides and ceiling.  Like a greenhouse or solarium.

 

 

Despite being run down...

It has beautiful bones.

 Several beautiful crystal chandeliers hang throughout to light up the night and add sparkle during the day.

The trim around each window is dark, so it really sinks into the dark night woodsy setting and it's like I'm hovering in the air, in my amazing tree house

The windows are mostly old but in good shape to keep out the rain and cold.

Thanks to Pintrest.com  for helping me define it in photos.

I would look most forward to watching the squirrels chase each other around the tree, from up close.

How To Avoid the $1 Spam Messages on Facebook

Unless the idea of getting spammy messages from people who don't know you on Facebook is appealing, prepare to change your settings.

When people you don't know have sent you a message on Facebook before, it may have gone into your "other" message box as opposed to your regular inbox.  Now however, Facebook is experimenting with a low percentage of users who will pay $1 to send messages to strangers.  It's bad enough Facebook now allows users to pay $7 to promote their own post to reach people they don't know.  It's like Facebook is trying every back door to create revenue and forgetting what this social network's popularity was based off: Friends connecting.

We suggest you switch to the "strict filtering".  At least it's an option for now. Stay with "basic filtering" and see how it goes.  It'll be a social experiment.

A NEW Facebook Feature You'll Like

While social networking for a client, I saw this nifty new "reply" feature in regards to comments left on a status update for fan pages.  

In this case, it was visible on the Lawrence Public Library but I couldn't find it on any of the other Facebook pages I administer or ones I checked from my personal account. I think it's a good idea for a feature so you can directly respond to a specific comment to a post. It will most certainly help organize the thread visually.  

Have you seen this option yet?

Social Networking for Large Brands Feels Like This...

This is what it feels like working/consulting with international large corporate brands regarding social networking.  They are so stifled only by themselves. Meh.

(I've interacted with some lovely large brands that do a fantastic job through social networks. I also find they are have a history of bravery and creativity online. Bravo to them!)

The Busiest Time on Pinterest Is...

Did you know the busiest day and time for pinning, repinning and perusing Pinterest is... Saturday morning?  Yeppers.

Happy Pinning.

Election Day LIKES

I saw these guys in line today at our voting site, a sweet little church in Prairie Village, KS.  A gentleman with a walker and behind him, a young man who rode over on his skateboard. Both in line to vote.  Wonderful.

I found some cool graphics today as well.

and a favorite

Here's a cool sidewalk chalk drawing

I hope you voted.  I did.

What are Your Favorite Photo Editing Apps & Sites?

If you blog, social network, do marketing, merchandise through photos, are a photographer, or promote anything or anyone using photos you took...  which photo editing app or site do you rely upon?   

This was taken and uploaded to PicMonkey which is my favorite website photo editing page.  Great options and right now it has very clever Halloween ideas for your photographs.  Hats off to my husband, Matt Ceule, who let me vampire up his handsomeness.

This gourd photo was taken with my Droid phone app, Instagram.  It's strictly a phone app and not a website to manipulate photos, unfortunately, for I really like the options.

What do you use?
