The Box of Happiness and Why You Should Learn VoiceOver

Apple Watch Series 5 and the Phone Call of Sadness™

Lately, Steve and I have started upgrading our phones and watches every single year. I’m starting to seriously question this strategy.

Bluetooth Dropout FIXED!

I’ve been feeling like the unluckiest Apple fangirl of all time with all the problems I’ve had with my Apple gear in the last year. Most recently you might remember the saga back in August of my 2016 MacBook Pro going belly up (wouldn’t charge). It would only stand out in your memory because my […]
