I had to giggle... I did post pics of my bearded dragons, too ~ I may know your DIL if she's a member of a message board for dragon owners haa haa :)

I check with my facebook daily. I like to see the pics of family as well as check the sewing/quilting links. I have several I see regularly, such as Designs by Sick, Ricky Timms, Joann's, my LQSs, several blogs from other quilters, and more. Some post daily and others maybe once a week. I do limit my time to maybe 15 minutes. I also have to limit the time spent on QB because with that, I loose track of time. I don't play the games no matter how many times I am invited, or asked for farm supplies.

oh do you have a biz page there? I'll look for it! :-)

I don't Facebook or Twitter either. I don't have the time - But most importantly I don't trust Facebook - or I guess that fact that when you send something out you never seem to know where it will end up
