I have a hard time focusing on work most of the time so tasks that can be done in three hours get extended the whole day. These days I really don’t have much time to go online so what I do now is list all the things I want to get done that day and not open social networking sites – Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

I need to practice – not checking my e-mails every five minutes and do productive procastination (like do some jumping jacks or stretching exercises when I need to take a break and not switch to my iPhone!).

Before you start planning and going crazy for Thanksgiving and even Christmas (the holidays), there is Halloween to prepare for. I have friends who think that Halloween is the best celebration for the year. Dressing up is their favorite thing to do! If you need more Halloween decorations, click here for more inspiration. My kids are also excited for Halloween.

Let’s all say – TRICK OR TREAT!

Of course, nothing beats being healthy and wearing yoga pants to exercise. I guess the misconception of so many women that they should be a certain size. Size is subjective. I can be tall and be a size 12 and be as sexy as a petite woman who is size 0. And you might just be surprised to know that my thinnest weight is at 140-150. That can be a whale for other people’s frame.

Be healthy. But have your own beauty standard. Dont confine yourself in sizes and waistlines.

Keepsy: Make You Instagram Books

I have always been looking for cheaper alternatives to printing like, cheap flyer printing, album printing and loose prints printing. And now that I am hooked with Instagra.am, an iPhone app I have blogged about, I am looking for ways to be able to print them too.

Enter Keepsy!

Photo album and scrapbook maker Keepsy is releasing Instant Album, a photo book for Instagram photos.

The Instant Album product pre-selects 30 to 35 of the user’s best filtered Instagram photos, as determined by “likes,” and auto-generates an album with pages of photos grouped by time in an experience that strips out the complexities normally involved in the photo book creation process.

Those with a penchant for detail can lose themselves in the Instant Album-making processing if they so choose. Users can edit the album’s layout, drag-and-drop photos onto the same page, edit backgrounds, add artwork, customize text and font and transform each album page as they see fit.

The final result is an 11-by-8.5 inch hardback album that retails for $29.95 for 30 pages, with each additional page costing $0.99.

The price is a bit high, for me who is accustomed with free books. But it is one of the the things I will most definitely try.

I have been reading up on office decorating ideas, mainly organization and developing your own filing system for a week now. I am determined to be able to develop my own organization system. My workstation is a little mess, but I seriously need to organize my shelves and throw away my files.

I tend to buy a lot of office organization stuff, yet I do not know how to efficiently use them.

Here are some tips for you:

I somehow need to get this decal for my iPhone. It as a similar need like the atv winches my uncle wants for his ATV – a pure want classified as need.

The decal mimics the front of a classic Polaroid camera and turns the back of your iPhone into something (that looks like) much more fun. You can pick up one of the decals at PhotoJojo (love them!) for $6. Perfect as a little “just because” gift for the shutterbug in your life.
