Everyone told me that when you move to NYC you will get sick a total of 3 times within the first year. Really sick. Not just a cold or the regular flu. And a lot of things could factor in, I suppose. Change in weather (from California to NYC...huge difference whether I like snow or not....), more smog(? - come on LA is BAD!) and/or new flora & fauna. Whatever "IT" is, this is my third time! (Chris's too BTW.) It's the sick were you can 'keep going' but eventually end up flat on your back. Being a woman, I push and push until I HAVE to stay in bed. The last time I remember LIKING to stay in bed all day was grade school! I have found small beacons of hope sans antibiotics. It's Mushrooms! Shrooms Baby!! :P And Xylitol. Yes, the sweetener. First Xylitol , which I have used for a long time, but only to help with dryness. I read a little article that suggested (dont-cha love that) that Xylitol does not allow "germies" (my term) to attach to...

I quit watching American Idol when Grammy award winning and Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson was kicked off back in 2004-05. I should not EVER have to explain that statement. I’ve consequently NOT encouraged my students to try-out. It (American Idol) isn’t about talent. Honestly….it’s NOT! So, I’m sitting here watching the female finalist of American Idol this season on Hulu. (No, we don’t have cable.) Well, if you follow my Facebook Page or Twitter , you KNOW that I teach Rachel Hale, the young artist who was voted off idol last week. Now, I do understand that there are some FABULOUS female vocalists, BUT 70% of America thought that she (Rachel) should have continued on the show. I have nothing against the little girl she was (apparently) up against. She (Janelle Arthur) just happened to have a bad night, but she IS talented! BUT…as I mentioned before, American Idol is ALL about a story. (NOT talent!) So, let’s talk Zoanette. Now, personality and story she has! An...

And yes, I've fallen down on the job of Vlogging, but I'm being too hard on myself! Right? This was the trap I got into with my Podcast! (eek!) So no, I didn't vlog when I was in Texarkana. :( BUT, When I got back, and found myself in the middle of beautiful Central Park with my husband, I asked if he could help! :) It was loud so I ended up having to "subtitle" it! And Sony Vegas was GREAT in editing mode, but poopy in the rendering phase! Ah well! C'est la vie ! (anyone remember that song?) Just in case, I FOUND THE VIDEO !! Spotifiers click here! Enjoy the video!

2013 Vlog #2  So my lighting is better...as well as my hair! :) Class is getting harder, but more exciting!!  

Okay! it's been a LONG time since a vlog, BUT wet hair and glasses...couldn't make me procrastinate any more! 

Okay THIS is crazy, but COOL! NOW, I can see a watch-type phone with a pullout screen to call a number.   Gadget Watch: Samsung shows bendable phone screen By Peter Svensson Associated Press - ‎Thursday‎, ‎January‎ ‎10‎, ‎2013 LAS VEGAS — By showing off a phone with a flexible screen, Samsung is hinting at a day when we migh...

Yeah.....It's been a long time! I went into a hole....(giggle)....it wasn't dark it was just a life readjustment! As to the KarmynKast...I'm listening to the last one. Hmmm... So many life changes...for the better...but some is personal and not sharable! Heck, I don't even remember my Mevio account! UStream has to be the way to go! Have gotten a LOT of new technology. Using my Mac for teaching and recording students....not myself....I know, I know!!! ...any interest?
