“Adjust Your Sails” Bowtiful Wallpaper – July ’14
We all experience days that just don't go our way. Maybe you woke up on the wrong side of the bed, or someone said something rude to you that kept replaying in your head all day, or the traffic on your way to work was horrendous, or you're stretched thin and stressed, etc, etc, etc. On days like these, we are given a choice: 1. allow your day to be ruined and write it off as a bad day or 2. "adjust your sails." Though the phrase may immediately come across as strictly relating to sailing, …
Apps I’m Loving – Part II
This is my second app post to date (check out Part I here). I'm constantly trying out new apps for my phone and these are a few of my current favorites.Yahoo WeatheriPhones are automatically loaded with a basic weather app, but I loooove the Yahoo weather app so much more! You can have multiple locations set, which you can swipe between, and each location features pictures from that area that have been recently uploaded to Flickr. This app is also really reliable with forecasting. It even …
“Lilly Love” Bowtiful Wallpaper – June ’14
On June 21st it's National Wear Your Lilly Day! (If you don't believe me, Google it. It's a real thing!) So for this month's wallpaper I decided I'd do an all Lilly theme.

“Embrace The Journey” Bowtiful Wallpaper
It's kind of crazy to think that Valentine's Day is already this Friday. 2014 has been flying by! This month's bowtiful wallpaper has plenty of pink and red to fit with the upcoming holiday and I think it's kind of adorable. I chose to place the quote "embrace the journey" in the center because I think that it's very valid when discussing relationships, especially with it being the week of Valentine's Day. (Now get ready for just a teeny tiny bit of uninvited relationship advice.) So many people …
“Icy Light” Bowtiful Wallpaper
This month's screensaver was inspired by the super chilly weather that the Midwest has been experiencing recently. There's been quite a lot of ice and snow within the month of December, hence the cool and icy blue tones. Also, as some of you know, Oscar Wilde is the author of many of my favorite quotes, so I thought I'd put this quote in for just a little bit of extra inspiration whenever you turn on your computer.
