Week End Reading - 16 Nov 14

I haven't gotten Lollipop yet, but I have been spending a lot of time reading up on it. I did do a little other reading as well, and as I get used to writing every night, I'm hoping to get to even more.

Dear Good Samaritan: You Save Christmas Every Year

Enough Moments

The Evil of Pintrest

I feel like I've fallen down a rabbit hole. Pintrest has sucked me in, and now my time is not my own. I've been working on a few projects as an attempt at being a frugal gift giver (as the gift giving season is quickly approaching). I have to admit that some of these projects are coming out pretty well.

While I won't share specifics yet, I would hate to ruin the surprise, here are a few sites that I've been inspired by.

I've been reading a lot less this week, between posting every day (yay!), and getting an invitation to Google Inbox (be still my geeky heart), but here are two things that I read this week.

Dear Mom - Your Sacrifice Did Not Go Unnoticed

Week End Reading

A busy as I've been recently, I do spend some quality time with my Feedly app while nursing. Here are just two of the things that I've read this week.

This article by Baby Rabies very nearly made me cry. I am not quite as far along in the journey as she is, as Munchkin is only in preschool and her oldest is now in kindergarten, but I understand everything that she said. I cannot believe how quickly the past eight months have flown by, so much faster than three years ago. Her words are exactly how I feel.
Tell Me How Beautiful It Is To Watch Them Fly

The fact that this has to be explained is a shame, but How To Be A Dad's article is a great dad point of view.
