Playing with Widgets - Updated

While investigating some Widgets for my 23 Things Ning (please join if you haven't already - spread the word!) I ran across some Harry Potter widgets that I just had to have.










Since I love Woot! so much I was thrilled to find a Woot widget so I can be updated on the Woot! deal of the day.

Rolling on down the line

"Let it roll, baby, roll. Let it roll, all night long." The Doors

So gave Rollyo a try. Not quite sold on it yet.

Not sure I did it right but I created a Rollyo for lighting. We are still renovating/expanding several rooms in our house (although the light is at the end of the tunnel - no pun intended). I don't know how many other folks will use my Rollyo but it is a bunch of sites that we've liked (good prices or good selections) and even ordered from. We were not impressed with Lowe's or Home Depot and places like Annapolis Lighting or Jones Lighting are nice but expensive. We have found that ordering off the Internet is cheaper and gives us the same quality product that you would have paid extra for in the showroom stores.

Not the most exciting Rollyo but it is something near and dear to my heart right now.

It's all 23 Things fault!

After getting about half way through 23 Things I've gotten slightly hooked on this blogging bit. Still not 100% sure about it but since I was on vacation I thought - hey, why not blog it. Unfortunately, due to not always having a WiFi connection and having to fight my computer junkie 16 yo and husband for time on the laptop, I gave up the idea.

But once I got home I thought what a great way to share some of my photos and thoughts/experiences with friends and family. Saving them a huge email that would have bored them to tears. Now they can go to Blogger and read or look at the pics if they want to.

So, if any of you are interested in my holiday blog - check it out here! And remember it is all 23 Things fault.

Avada Kedavra

MERLIN's beard! Order of Merlin, third class....

Every time I see the name MERLIN I think of Harry Potter if not then King Arthur. On some odd occassions I think of my home state (Yeah, I'm from Bawlmar, Merlin, Hon!).

Actually I was recently invited to be a site supporter for MERLIN. Trying to catch up on just what that entails but I hope to help make the MERLIN site even better.

Now remember...."it's Levosah not Levosar!"
