The third oldest of 17 children, Mildred J. Mills, 73, was raised on a farm in Alabama. At a young age, she began to imagine that she would be going places, even though she had no idea how or where she might go. In high school one of her teachers recognized her talent in mathematics and suggested she think about a technical college for data processing. Her Daddy surprised her by helping make that a reality. Life was full of surprises from that moment forward. “Sometimes in life we know it's time to let go, and that, my friends, is a cotton patch moment.” - Mildred J. MillsWhat followed was a highly successful career in IT Management, two college degrees - a Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts in creative writing/nonfiction, and a very fulfilling life, not without its challenges, some major. It was when she left her job, at 60, that she began to think about writing a book.

Jennifer Fink created the "Fading Memories" podcast after struggling to find support for Alzheimer's caregiving.   Jennifer's family history with Alzheimer's motivated her to share information and connect with others facing similar challenges.   She highlights the overwhelming search for support and information that led her to realize she was not alone—there are over 16 million unpaid family caregivers in the U.S.   Jennifer explains the emotional toll of caregiving, referring to it as a "death by a thousand cuts," as the gradual decline of a loved one is particularly hard to cope with.   She emphasizes the need for humor and positivity in the face of these challenges - finding laughter is crucial for maintaining mental health.   She discusses the importance of being relatable and sharing personal stories to connect with her audience.   Furthermore, Jennifer highlights the importance of finding happiness in one's work through balance and flexibility.

This special episode is a rebroadcast of the Fading Memories: Alzheimer's/Dementia Support podcast hosted by Jennifer Fink. I had a wonderful conversation with Jen Fink, the producer and host of Fading Memories podcast. It's a great show that listens, hears, and offers hope, advice, and wisdom from caregivers who have lived the experience and thrived. Think of her podcast as your caregiver best friend. Before meeting Jen, I did not know that there is a podcast like Fading Memories that helps caregivers across the globe in varying circumstances and cultures. I sure learned a lot about Alzheimer's and dementia by listening to her many episodes that she posted since 2020. There's a lot to learn from Jen. Most notable is the fact that she herself was a caregiver of her mom. In this episode, Jen and I talked about Using Mindfulness To Reduce Frustrations. If you're a caregiver or know of caregivers who are going through the same situation, this can help ease the many challenges that many of us face. Truth be told, I did not only have fun chatting with Jen. I also was educated about the many facts about Alzheimer's and dementia. To know more about Jen's amazing podcast, here are the details including a YouTube recording of this episode. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fading-memories-alzheimers-dementia-support/id1372194620https://open.spotify.com/show/3deSSZyYhuvND3XQtbBE0Whttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRbzP9ROIMQEnjoy this rebroadcast episode with Jennifer Fink of Fading Memories Alzheimer and Dementia support podcast. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/find-your-daily-calm/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In part three of my conversation with author of Building Boys, Jennifer Fink, we talk about the mind trip that is beginning to envision retirement. I have to point out that this is the third interview in a row where my guest mentions that they have a phrase written on a Post-It note hanging above their computer monitor.

In this episode I'm talking with Jennifer about the squishier side of creativity–the thoughts, ideas, and attitudes that affect your work, even if you're not fully conscious of it, including: Finding the inspiration to write about controversial subjects in today's age of nasty comments and trolling Jennifer's trick for keeping herself accountable and not avoiding writing about the hard stuff The power of talking to other writers The things her inner critic says, and how it gets louder when she's doing the work that's closest to her heart The trick for getting things down on the page–and how that seeming blather transforms into ‘readable chapters' The beauties and drawbacks of living in a rural area The dichotomy of having a virtual job with a big network while living in a small, somewhat isolated town Becoming a cliche as you grow older: “I started aqua aerobics recently” Continuing to work when your body may have other plans The caregiving sandwich Dealing with the claustrophobia of being in a transitional period, or what Jennifer calls a hallway Her list of three collective illusions Jennifer wishes we'd wake up from For full show notes with links to everything we discuss, plus bonus photos!, visit katehanley.substack.com.

Raising Decent Human Beings with Brad Kraay and Jennifer Fink Jennifer L.W. Fink is a mother of four sons, an award-winning freelance journalist, author, and co-host of the podcast On Boys: Real Talk about Parenting, Teaching, and Reaching Tomorrow's Men. She is also the founder and creator of BuildingBoys.net, a website and global community for parents of boys. Brad Kraay is a father of three, the founder and senior partner of Thunderbird Advisors Group, and has spent years doing the work on himself to be the best co-parent he can be. In this episode, Mathew, Brad, and Jennifer discuss the challenges of raising children while still trying to figure out how to navigate our own lives. Mathew says, “Most people think they are fine until they have children”, to kick off a conversation about the ways our children reflect our insecurities and faults back at us and how we can deal with that in a realistic and constructive way. They may not always listen, but they do always watch. You can say all the right things, but if you don't live them, it probably won't make an impact. The most powerful and effective thing a parent can do is work on their own emotional regulation, normalize the challenges of being a human, and work to overcome them. Jennifer says, “Modeling is the single most powerful parenting tool we have.” Bring them along on your journey of self-improvement, and communicate your feelings and thoughts with them in the way you want them to communicate with you. Getting comfortable with uncomfortable situations will benefit both of you and your kids in the long run and make it easier to navigate the inevitable shifts your relationship will go through. When they are young, children often idolize their parents. In the teen years, they can grow to resent you (and sometimes the feeling is mutual). However, if you keep the deceptively simple goal in mind of raising decent humans, focusing on what really matters, and being your best, they'll eventually come around again. “Your genes might reveal where you come from, but your choices determine where you're going to go.” In this episode, you'll hear: The societal shift away from imposing stereotypes on boys and why we aren't completely past it How do children reflect and magnify our faults and insecurities, and how should we deal with that?

New Podcast on the Whole Care Network: Fading Memories with host Jennifer Fink. In this episode, Jennifer visits with Steph Jagger who found herself faced with the heartbreaking reality of losing her mother twice. Her mother, afflicted by an insidious ailment that gradually erodes her memories and identity, struggles to recall even the simplest aspects of her life—her favorite beverage, her cherished melody, and Steph herself. Witnessing her mother's gradual descent into oblivion without the chance to share her own narrative, Steph makes a solemn vow: she will undertake the journey her mother can no longer undertake and immortalize it in writing. Keenly aware of her mother's fading recollections, Steph proposes a camping expedition to Montana—an idea her mother reluctantly agrees to, urged on by Steph's father. What begins as an adventure replete with horseback riding, hiking, and nights spent "tenting" in the Western wilderness swiftly transforms into a profound exploration of Steph's own childhood, her experiences as a mother, her sense of self, and the complexities of loving someone who can no longer remember the person she has become. Everything Left to Remember is a profoundly moving and visually stunning contemplation of how stories are passed down from generation to generation, both through familial lineage and the vast tapestry of nature itself. Against the backdrop of Montana's expansive sky, under the watchful gaze of constellations, this extraordinary journey imparts the wisdom of how our memories shape us into the individuals we are. During the course of our conversation, Steph and I embarked on an introspective journey that uncovers a profound truth: the discovery of emotional wellness as an indispensable tool for caregivers was unveiled in the most unexpected of places—beneath the vast expanse of celestial wonders that adorned the night sky. As we exchange thoughts, we find ourselves immersed in the remarkable realization that gazing up at those distant stars was a catalyst for understanding the intricacies of tending to others with empathy and compassion. The awe-inspiring cosmic backdrop seemed to bestow upon us a newfound wisdom, allowing us to recognize the importance of nurturing our own emotional well-being as caregivers so that we may better support and uplift those in our care. In this luminous setting, surrounded by the infinite beauty of the universe, we appreciate the interconnectedness of our emotional journey with the boundless love and care we provide to others. Learn more about Steph Here.

Jennifer Fink created the Fading Memories podcast after finding that balancing everything that a caregiver needs to attend to, doing more research about what she needs to be doing, as well as her own life was too much. She speaks the honest truth about her journey with her mother and grandmother who both had dementia. Some of these things that have been taboo to talk about your loved one has been taboo for years and is now starting to change to make way for a more honest look into the life of caring for someone with dementia, and the factors that drove people like Jennifer to choose senior living over home care. Find out how she arrived at the decision she made for a community and what she's learned in the 20 years of dementia care that she saw with her mother.

As parents we can probably all agree that we want to raise well-rounded, emotionally intelligent, kind human beings. But in the culture and the climate that we live in that can be tough, especially when we're raising boys in a world that often rewards stereotypical masculinity.

Jennifer Fink has a family history of Alzheimer's disease. After her father died she & her sister became responsible for their Mother who has advanced Alzheimer's Looking for support, answers and more Jennifer did deep internet research dives but came up short.

It's our 5th Anniversary this month. As part of the celebration, we will post flashback episodes all month long to celebrate and say thank you. If it were not for you, our Runcation Nation community, we would not have had this show for the last five years, had some of the most amazing experiences, and created lasting friendships in this community. Next up is an inspiring speech given by a great inspiration in the world of running and a world-record holder in the marathon distance for double amputees, Marko Cheseto!   SHOUT OUTS  Thanks to all our patrons and everyone in the Runcation Nation for your support and encouragement.  Because of you, we have been able to keep the show going over the last 18 months, and now that the races are returning, we look forward to meeting up with you, too!

RUN While we were at the Anchorage RunFest, we met up with two inspirational figures in the running community: Marko Cheseto and Bart Yasso.  We heard Marko talk at the pasta feed on Saturday of the race weekend.  We think the lessons he spoke about are worth sharing, and we do so from a bit of audio we captured at the luncheon.  We discuss these lessons and what they mean to us in running and life.  (Please forgive the audio.  A fire alarm was going off for much of Marko's speech.  His message is worth hearing, and hopefully, you can get past that to listen to the meaningful message.  Thank you for hanging in there, if you can.) EAT Grizzly Dogs Food Truck was outside King Street Brewing while we were in Anchorage for the Anchorage RunFest.  When we saw their menu, we couldn't help but try their signature item, "The Grizzly Dog" for 10.00.  They chop a reindeer sausage and smother it with sautéed onions, peppers, and cheese sauce. Yum!  Other items on their menu piqued our interest, so… of course, we want to get back to it when we are in Anchorage again.   DRINK King Street Brewing is a huge space with tasty beer on the menu and a beautiful view of the mountains in Anchorage.  You can sample their beer from any three stories while you look over into the brewing facility or take a seat by a window and admire the beautiful Mountain View while having a cold one.  They have a wide variety of styles on their menu.  We talked about what we had while we were there.  We hope to get back to this neat space with many friendly beer tenders.   If you choose to indulge, please drink responsibly by having a designated driver or taking a rideshare service. Stay safe, Runcation Nation! THAT'S A WRAP! Thank you for listening! We are looking forward to YEAR NUMBER 5 of the podcast because of your support!

Caregiving for someone with Alzheimer's or dementia holds its special challenges. Jennifer Fink of the Fading Memories Podcast is with us to share her caregiving experience.  Jennifer became the caregiver for her mom after the death of her dad.  Experiencing all the frustration and challenges, Jennifer looked for podcasts that could help.  After not finding what she needed, Jennifer launched the Fading Memories podcast.  The podcast content is designed to help anyone who is providing care for someone with Alzheimer's or dementia.  According to the Fading Memories Podcast website, “Jennifer is the daughter, granddaughter & great-granddaughter of women who suffered from Alzheimer's or other cognitive impairment. Looking for answers on how not to become the fourth generation with this problem while also seeking ways to connect better with her Mom has led her on this interesting journey with her new passion, podcasting”.  The website provides support through the podcast, articles, recipes, and resources.  You can connect with Jennifer at fadingmemoriespodcast.com and on her Facebook page.  Find the podcast on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.  Don't miss this great resource for Alzheimer's and dementia caregivers!

After helping care for her grandmother who had vascular dementia, Jennifer realized her Mother was showing signs of early onset Alzheimer's. After the death of her father in 2017 Jennifer went searching for answers to many of the common questions and Alzheimer's caregiver faces. Being a busy entrepreneur Jennifer realized that a podcast would be the easiest way to learn more about caregiving while completing other tasks. Sadly, in late 2017 she only found one and it didn't quite address what she was looking for, so she did the next best thing, and started her own. The Fading Memories podcast is now in it's fourth year and despite the death of her Mom in March 2020, Jennifer is still talking to caregivers and still learning how to be an excellent caregiver. On the podcast she discusses caregiving, brain health, self care and how to age well.

This special episode is a rebroadcast of the Fading Memories: Alzheimer's/Dementia Support podcast hosted by Jennifer Fink. I had a wonderful conversation with Jen Fink, the producer and host of Fading Memories podcast. It's a great show that listens, hears, and offers hope, advice, and wisdom from caregivers who have lived the experience and thrived. Think of her podcast as your caregiver best friend. Before meeting Jen, I did not know that there is a podcast like Fading Memories that helps caregivers across the globe in varying circumstances and cultures. I sure learned a lot about Alzheimer's and dementia by listening to her many episodes that she posted since 2020. There's a lot to learn from Jen. Most notable is the fact that she herself was a caregiver of her mom. In this episode, Jen and I talked about Using Mindfulness To Reduce Frustrations. If you're a caregiver or know of caregivers who are going through the same situation, this can help ease the many challenges that many of us face. Truth be told, I did not only have fun chatting with Jen. I also was educated about the many facts about Alzheimer's and dementia. To know more about Jen's amazing podcast, here are the details including a YouTube recording of this episode. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fading-memories-alzheimers-dementia-support/id1372194620https://open.spotify.com/show/3deSSZyYhuvND3XQtbBE0Whttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRbzP9ROIMQEnjoy this rebroadcast episode with Jennifer Fink of Fading Memories Alzheimer and Dementia support podcast. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/find-your-daily-calm/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Jennifer Fink is the daughter, granddaughter, and great granddaughter of three women who have succumbed to Alzheimer's or other cognitive impairments. Her quest to discover how not to become the fourth generation in her family with this condition, while also seeking ways to better connect with her mother, led her to her new passion, podcasting. She is the producer and host of Fading Memories, a podcast that listens, hears, and offers wisdom and hope from caregivers who have lived the experience. Jennifer discovered long ago that podcasts are an easily accessible way to learn new things. She could walk the dog or do housework while learning about a variety of topics. But when she searched for shows that might help her find answers to her many questions about Alzheimer's, she did not find what she was looking for, so she decided to create one herself. In its fourth season, Fading Memories focuses on conversations with people who offer resources and ideas for whatever stage of dementia your loved one is in. It's part helpful information and part true stories from caregivers like you and is for anyone caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's or dementia. In this episode, we discuss the importance of estate planning sooner rather than later, dealing with a difficult sibling in caregiving, and how cycling kept her sane.  You can also “read” the podcast on her blog, which is available on the FadingMemories.com website.

In Episode 44,  Don and I had a candid conversation with Jennifer Fink -   Founder and Host of Fading Memories Podcast - about a topic that doesn't  seem to get as much attention as it should. Personal hygiene and our loved ones. As Alzheimer's progresses, poor hygiene can become an issue: people living with dementia (PLWD) often refuse to bathe and even change their clothes.  It can even lead to medical problem such as urinary tract infections. Because Alzheimer's causes a slow decline of cognitive functions, a PLWD will begin to get confused about seemingly simple things, like how to wash their hair.  A PLWD may be overwhelmed and confused by all the products on the bathroom counter, perhaps mistaking a tube of lotion for toothpaste. Sometimes they don't recognize their loved ones or even themselves, so the images they see in the mirror may be confused as strangers!Sensory perception, especially vision, touch and smell, also changes. This can make a tub of water seem scary as depth perception changes.  The water spray from the shower can feel like sharp needles.  A smelly shirt may be more comforting than a freshly laundered – but unfamiliar – replacement. Room or water temperature may feel different to the PLWD than it does to us. Jennifer shares some of the best tips for overcoming the challenges associated with PLWD's and their personal hygiene.  Jennifer spent the first half of her adult life as a portrait photographer, retired from in early 2020. Listening to podcasts became a favorite way to learn new things while walking the dogsor doing household chores. After the death of her father in March 2017, dealing with and caring for her Mother became a much bigger part of her life. Looking to her favorite media in search of answers and not finding what she was looking for, Jennifer decided she would create a supportive podcast that caregivers of Alzheimer's patients need and deserve. Jennifer is the daughter, grand daughter & great grand daughter of women who suffered from Alzheimer's or other cognitive impairment. Looking for answers on how not to become the fourth generation with this problem  has led her on this interesting journey with her new passion, podcasting.Connect with Jennifer: FACEBOOK TWITTER INSTAGRAM LINKEDIN APPLE PODCAST SPOTIFYSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/preview/3feccac8decf451cbee818066461f7c1)

RUN While we were at the Anchorage RunFest, we had the pleasure of meeting up with two inspirational figures in the running community: Marko Cheseto and Bart Yasso.  We heard Marko give a talk at the pasta feed on Saturday of the race weekend.  We think the lessons he talked about are worth sharing and we do so from a bit of audio we captured at the luncheon.  We discuss these lessons and what they mean to us in running and life as well.  (Please forgive the audio.  A fire alarm was going off for much of Marko's speech.  His message is worth hearing and hopefully you can get past that to hear the meaningful message.  Thank you for hanging in there, if you can.) EAT Grizzly Dogs Food Truck was outside of King Street Brewing while we were in Anchorage for the Anchorage RunFest.  When we saw their menu, we couldn't help but try their signature item, "The Grizzly Dog" for 10.00.  They chop a reindeer sausage and smother it with sautéed onions, peppers and cheese sauce. Yum!  There are other items on their menu that piqued our interest, so… of course we definitely want to get back to it when we are in Anchorage again.   DRINK King Street Brewing is a big space with tasty beer on the menu and a beautiful view of the mountains in Anchorage.  You can sample their beer from any of the three stories while you look over into the brewing facility or you take a seat by a window and admire the beautiful Mountain View while having a cold one.  They have a wide variety of styles on their menu.  We talk about what we had while we were there.  We hope to get back to this neat space with so many friendly beer tenders.   THAT'S A WRAP!

Caregiving is certainly not an easy job. Often, caregiving responsibilities are given to family members who are learning as they go—especially with the case of dementia. While caregiving for someone struggling with dementia is no easy task, Jennifer Fink understands and has created many resources to help. After experiencing the difficulties behind being a caregiver for her mother dealing with Alzheimer's, Jennifer struggled to find a podcast that catered toward her needs as an Alzheimer's Caregiver. Thus, the ambitious Jennifer decided to create her podcast, Fading Memories, to provide support, advice, and resources for those dealing with a similar situation. On Jennifer's website www.fadingmemoriespodcast.com, you have not only access to her wonderful podcasts, but also an array of other helpful resources—such as blog articles and recipes. And yes, they're all completely FREE! Jennifer's podcast and website offer many significant and valuable techniques, even if you are just a general caregiver. In this episode, Kirsten and Jennifer go over the challenging emotions and difficulties that Alzheimer's caregivers face. If you are a caregiver or have a loved one dealing with memory loss, this is an episode you don't want to miss. Together, Kirsten and Jennifer cover a variety of techniques, tools, and support available for those dealing with a loved one suffering from memory loss. Listen now to hear the episodes that listeners—and even Jennifer herself—found the most helpful in their care-taking journey. Big Three from Episode #073: As a caregiver, even having just ten minutes of your own free time can feel like gold. To properly care for someone else, make sure you are taking care of yourself first! If you are a caregiver for someone dealing with dementia and want to access a completely FREE resource for helpful caregiving techniques, support and advice SPECIFICALLY targeted toward Alzheimer's and dementia, you have to visit www.fadingmemoriespodcast.com!

RUN This week we ran our  We Love Truckers (Rob Nadeau Memorial) Virtual Race.  It is a virtual race of a variety of distances honoring the life of one of our own lost too soon, Rob Nadeau.  It supports organizations that he wanted to highlight and help, St. Christopher's Trucker Relief Fund and Koch Trucking.   These organizations work to support and show appreciation for many Truck Drivers across the United States.  We ran our miles at the beautiful Laurel Falls Trail in Tennessee during Truck Driver Appreciation Week (September 12 - September 18).  This week culminated in Rob's birthday on the 18th.  This was our first ever trail walk or hike.  We saw so many beautiful sights that Rob would have loved and learned some important life lessons along the way.  We recap them on this episode. Find out more about St. Christoper's Trucker Relief Fund at: https://truckersfund.org  Find out more about Koch Trucking: https://kochtrucking.us  We love and miss Rob with all our hearts.  He was one of the earliest and biggest supporters of our show.  We are so glad to honor him this week.  EAT Bennett's Pit BBQ was right around the corner from our hotel in Gatlinburg.  Sam was a great host and server in the last hour they were open because we were rather late getting there after our race.  This place has amazing BBQ and we got to sample it fresh off the smoker the same day plus have a unique appetizer we have never seen before!  We break it all down on this episode.  If you are in Gatlinburg, give them a visit!  They also have a location in Pigeon Forge, too! DRINK Bennett's Pit BBQ also highlights local moonshine on its cocktail menu.  We had watermelon and sweet tea cocktails featuring Ole Smoky Moonshine.  They were so flavorful and potent!  We highly recommend these from their menu!   THAT'S A WRAP!

Welcome to Episode 18 of The Write Start. I'm Lisa Iannucci, and this podcast is all about becoming a successful full-time freelance writer. I've had a very long career where I've written for many national magazines and newspapers and written more than 20 books. It's my career, not my hobby and, on this podcast, you'll learn everything you need to know about writing --from finding ideas to landing assignments and, most importantly, making money. This week on The Write Start my guest is successful full time freelance writer Jennifer L.W. Fink, RN, BSN, a Registered Nurse-turned-writer. She's the creator of BuildingBoys.net, co-host of the ON BOYS parenting podcast, and author of The First –Time Mom's Guide to Raising Boys. Jennifer has been published by The New York Times, U.S. News & World Report, The Washington Post, FOX News, Parents, Cancer Today and Medscape.  Today she's here to talk about her career and her book, one I wish I had when I was raising my son. But let's get into this and find out how she's been so successful in her full-time freelance writing career. Also, I have created a course that will launch at the end of August. No fancy title… It's simply called Become a Successful Freelance Writer but it includes so much. I dig deep into finding ideas, pitching editors and using one article or idea to create multiple assignments. The course is intensive and you will get several resources from me, but most of all you'll finish the course with a clear path of your writing goals and how to get there. If you sign up, you will have access to me at any time while you're taking the course. The outline will be put up on the website shortly, but the course is open for enrollment as of now. Just go to https://the-writer-start.teachable.com/ to sign up. I know there are so many of these courses out there, but I've lived what I'm going to teach you and I've been teaching courses like this for years. I hope I can help you to finally become the successful full-time freelance writer that you've always wanted to be. https://the-writer-start.teachable.com/Well, that's it for this week's edition of The Write Start podcast.

So many of our grandchildren have an overpowering connection to their handheld computing and gaming devices. They steal focus from the time we spend together, but it's the "new normal" in many households. How can a grandparent accept the reality without encouraging the intrusion? Emily talks with three guests who bring their personal and professional expertise to the challenge. SHOW NOTES Guest Emily Cherkin can answer your questions through her service and website, The Screen Time Consultant. Emily's second guest, Jennifer Fink, runs the parenting site Building Boys. She mentions the book "Moral Combat: Why The War On Violent Video Games is Wrong" by Christopher J. Ferguson. Jennifer's podcast, On Boys, recently had Emily as a guest to discuss the grandparenting of boys. Here's a video teaser on YouTube. Rhonda Moskowitz provides coaching through her business and website, Practical Solutions Parent Coaching. She is active with (and mentioned) the Childrens' Screentime Action Network, a great resource for parents and educators. And here's our personal history of personal computers. How does this compare to your own? 1983 Apple II Plus with 48 kilobytes of memory, a green screen monitor, and two floppy disk drives. And a joystick to play a helicopter game. 1987 IBM PC XT with 128 kilobytes of memory, a 10 megabyte hard drive, and an external 1200-baud telephone modem for CompuServe. 1990 generic PC clone we bought at Montgomery Ward with a 20 megabyte hard drive and color monitor, and a faster modem for America Online to tell us "You've got mail!" 1992 Compaq Elite mini notebook with a built in trackball for word processing without a mouse. 1995, the first of a succession of IBM PC clones Mike built out of separate components, upgrading parts that would fail or become obsolete, as if we were in some science fiction movie. (Continues to this day) 2003 Toshiba laptop for the oldest to take to college, which gave us our first hard drive crash. 2006 First MacBook (for #3 to take to college) 2013 my first real laptop, an Acer Ultrabook with Windows 7 2014 my first iPhone (iPhone 4) 2015 our first iPad (iPad 2) Today, we're on our 2nd Mac, 6th homebuilt PC, 4th laptop, 2nd iPad, and Emily is on her 3rd iPhone.
