Words With Friends

Lesson: Expanding your vocabulary can get you more points!

I've been playing a lot of Words With Friends recently (thanks to having a new smartphone!) which has actually expanded my vocabulary. Here are just 10 of the new words I've learned recently:

1. Alee - upon or toward the lee side of a vessel; away from the wind
2. Dag - one of a series of decorative scallops or foliations along the edge of a garment, cloth, etc / an amusing, unusual person
3. Dither - a trembling; vibration / to act irresolutely; vacillate / a state of confusion

The Wonderful Array of Apps

Lesson: They have apps for everything! 

Okay, I know this isn't mind blowing or anything, but there's something to be said for realizing something first-hand.

Although we had smartphones a couple of years ago, we decided to go back to ordinary 'dumb' phones for a while in an effort to save money. Well, after receiving a raise about a month ago, we decided we could jump back into the world of modern technology and upgraded to iPhones. They really do have apps for everything!
