I Love this App!!!!
Turning 40 is kind of a strange thing. You feel smarter and have a better sense of who you are and how you want to spend your days ....... and then you realize time is short and you'd better get at it. Just as I had this realization my body started hurting and I started feeling older. Enter...1.CPAP getting more sleep 2. more exercise 3. Eating healthy 4. Drinking less alcohol. WOW! I have been having a tough time on it all. It boils down to changing lifelong habits and education on what is good and what is not. Noom is an app that I discovered to give me a big boost. There are lots of tools to monitor your caloric intake and exercise. What I love about this app is that it provides meaningful pointed education on nutrition, exercise and all of those crazy question that go rattling through your head as you are trying to make a change like this. I'm sure in the next 30 days I'll be upgrading to the pro version. check it out!

Microsoft Office 2013----Best Office yet!
I love the new MS Office 2013. Why? The best way to describe it is ease of use. everything just works better. The product interface is intuitive and the controls are where you think they should be. When you click on file you get a full page of options that represent all the things you would want to do with the document- Print, convert to PDF, Share, Export. On the same page they've nicely integrated Skydrive (this is the Microsoft storage cloud). Everything just fits. I'm kind of a car junkie so the best way I can describe it is like when you get in a car and all the controls are in the right place at the right time. Then you turn the key and the gears shift at the right time. The engine has the right amount of power. The seats hold you just right and the car holds the road.
What else? The flat interface and ribbon make it easy to discover new features. The product seems like it is more fun to explore. Of course, as usual, there are many more features than most people will ever use. However, when you know they will be easier to find you are more likely to try them out.

Onenote. This is part of office that I've experimented with in the past and not had much luck. This has now revolutionized the way I work. It is fully integrated with Skydrive. This means that I create a notepad on my computer that I have access to no matter where I am. Big Deal? The cool part is that it is a shared note book that I work off of cooperatively with others. We all have access to it. again Big Deal? The kicker? It is part of my Microsoft Server infrastructure completely secure and controlled by the Microsoft domain security model.
