When the iPad first came out, I wanted one. Not because I knew I absolutely needed it, but I’m a geek. I like new technology. I have a laptop and a Nook, but I still wanted that iPad. But, I’m also one not to spend money on myself. I tried winning them in just about every place imaginable, but apparently everyone else was too because I never won!

See how I use my iPad for daily 'mom' things.

This lens on Squidoo is really just an introduction. I wanted to share who I was and what I am about with readers. I haven’t quite found a particular niche so I write about many things happening in our lives. I am a stay at home Nana who takes care of her grandchildren to help out my son and his family. I started creating lenses on Squidoo as a part of my efforts to work at home.. While staying at home.

Spare change can go a long way

With the growing econmoy proplems and my disability I've had to find alternative ways to make money. My personal favorite is Mechanical Turk. With jobs ranging from $10.00 to $.01 it is an easy way to make some quick money. I will admitt this is not a way to get rich by far, but witht hte rising cost of everything some spare change can go a long way
