Nook Personalization

Thursday, July 22, 2010

On my Nook I added some pictures to the My Screensaver folder. I have a picture of Geo. Taylor (5x Great-Gpa), a profile of him looking to the right, with his sig. below. Looks awesome. A picture of my Grandpa that is very long, in WWI Army, I cropped it to show head down whatever [...]

It was my birthday on Sunday. My big present was a Nook (Barnes and Noble eReader) … the 3G+WiFi version. I also got a cover for it, went on Monday to see what else B&N had and stuck with the cover my husband had picked out. I wanted a stand to use it with and [...]

Just Read Twilight

Monday, October 5, 2009

I just read the book “Twilight”, finished it in the middle of the night, actually. I’ve had the books, all of the books currently in the series that are out, for quite some time, and just hadn’t picked them up to read. I actually have the movie on Blu-Ray, and haven’t watched it yet. What [...]

The Murdered Traveller

Monday, January 23, 2006

I made a bookmark for my Dh today, and this is what is on one side of it: I have an old edition of Bryant’s poems, dedicated to someone from someone as a gift on 1.1.1886. This poem begins on page 80 of that volume. It’s interesting to note the differences in travel today, how [...]

Another Narnia Quiz

Friday, December 16, 2005

As Jewel, you are slightly stubborn and a tad head-strong, but you are valiant brave and daring. Admired for your free spirit and adventurism, you are the subject of much respect. I’ve taken this quiz in the past, never posted it before today. Same results though.
