The Public Library: The Monday Review
Pony up the library card and crack one open, my friends! When we first moved to this area, one of the first places I visited was the public library. And you may recall when I lost my wallet last fall, I sobbed pretty hard over my missing library card. If you are a hardcore reading addict […]
A Day Out With Thomas: The Monday Review
Source Thomas is rolling into the station!

Swagger Wagon: The Monday Review
I’m over two years late on the draw here, but I still need to give my beloved Swagger Wagon a shout-out. When Toyota first started rolling out the commercials featuring the very hip Sienna Family, I giggled out loud. The mother especially is just so spot-on with her incredible coolness. Obviously, guys check her out […]
My Favorite Someecards: The Monday Review
Someecards are so very funny. If I had the time, I could spend hours trolling around the site, giggling out loud and snorting. Would be a delightful way to blow the afternoon. Someecards’ tagline “When you care enough to hit send” is a treat in itself. The site generates their own cards, but also has […]
Early Holiday Bargain Shopping: A Monday Review
Labor Day. Ahh…a break from our jobs and work. A chance to cook-out, hang out with family and friends. A final, sweet goodbye to Summer and a welcoming in of Fall. It’s a great day; I love the potential to just relax a little (though you know it doesn’t always happen when you’re running after […]
Photo-Canvas.Com: The Monday Review
My inbox is always filled with offers and deals for photo canvases, and while I love, love pictures and think the canvases seem so cool, I have held out.
