Certainly by now, we are all aware of QR codes. I've fiddled with them, because I know they make sense, but other than a code on my blog I really haven't used them, until now. I've just had new cards printed, and I placed this one the back. I have a new "brand" I'm developing, and I had it creat

Ah, sleeping in until 8:30... when's the last time you did that? Today is the last week day of our stay-vacation, and I finally managed to sleep like I am on vacation. We've had a great week, and I'm hoping the rain holds off a little longer. I've spent the week cleaning and preparing and plan
