This is a compensated review by BlogHer and Intel.
Let’s face it, life is busy. We, or maybe I should say “I” feel like I am always running around with my family just hoping to get everything I need to get done every single day. As a mom of 2 busy little boys, a wife, a recipe developer, website author and new cookbook writer, it is so very important for me to multi-task and use wise time management otherwise I am in big trouble.
I find it helpful to write down my responsibilities each week on paper so I can see them along with having family meetings so we are all on the same page then try to multi-task every chance I get.
When I come across things that make my life easier….and faster I am all ears.
I was selected by BlogHer and Intel to review a new computer powered by the Intel® Core™ i5 processor with Turbo Boost Technology that allows me to get more done in less time. Talk about excitement when I heard those words! The laptop is beautiful. I quickly opened the box and set it up all by myself. For someone who knows the bare minimum about running computers, I must say I was relieved how easy it was to get started.
An Intel® wireless display (akaWiDi) adaptor was also sent that allows me to use my HDTV a monitor. How cool is that? I can work on my blog or type recipes on the big screen in my living room. I can NOT wait to get playing on this new computer. Stay tuned to hear more about my experience!

When I’m on the computer, I spend 60% researching different topics and reading interesting blogs. Then I spend 30% finding resources for and marketing my graphic design business. The last 10% is spent catching up with friends and family via Facebook and Twitter.
The vast majority of my computer time is spent working, so a new laptop would be wonderful!
I mostly watch movies and tv shows. And I use my email, ALOT.
I work for eBay so I’m on the computer for 8 hours and then when i’m not at work I do enjoy some surfing 🙂
