First, I am sorry that last Monday no blog from me showed up in your inbox. I was going nine rounds with my blog service, which wanted to charge me more because my subscriber list had grown so large I was exceeding my quota of monthly emails. But wait, my subscribers pay zero money to subscribe, and I have zero income from advertising or sponsorships, and you want to penalize me for being popular?
Sigh. I ultimately prevailed.
Anyway, thank you for subscribing. I will be sending new posts most weeks, and have some really cool stuff in the pipeline. So stay tuned!
Meanwhile, I think you'll enjoy this recent conversation with Shonda Belton, who hosts a popular podcast called CQP Moments. (CQP stands for Coupon Queen-Pin, which doesn't really clarify anything.) The Queen interviewed me for her podcast, and we covered the true meaning of rightsizing, took a deep dive into blending homes, and examined why we get emotional about our stuff. I think you'll enjoy listening in here.*

READERS: If you have a home design question, dilemma, or success story, send it to me along with relevant photos (if you have them) at marni@marnijameson.com. I will field what I can. Also send your downsizing and rightsizing stories, including lessons learned. This blog is our blog.
Escape Road 3 throws you straight into high-speed chaos, where every turn, drift, and decision can mean the difference between a clean getaway and total failure.
Yesterday evening while sitting comfortably at home after dinner, I decided to test Goa Games Register because many gaming apps online usually become frustrating during account setup sessions from mobile devices after some usage. I spent some free time exploring menus, checking navigation speed, and switching between different sections continuously from my phone. Surprisingly, the registration process stayed responsive throughout usage and there were fewer interruptions compared to several similar gaming platforms I have tried recently online during regular mobile browsing sessions.
