Just Tidying Up

It's one of those days when I feel like blogging, I just don't know what to blog about. I guess it's random blog night.

• I really like reading my friend's blogs. I even read blogs of people that I almost got to know. There are some really inspirational blogs out there. One blog I read is always teaching me something about the human race that is positive. I like to read the blogs of the homeschool moms because I get really great ideas. Thanks for the bullet points, Tiffany. I also get a little sympathy and can give sympathy. Safety in numbers, maybe?

• I have really been enjoying downloading pictures into the computer. We have an older camera and software. I didn't really like using it for awhile because I coudn't figure it out. I am not a read the directions kind of girl. I like to think I'm smart enough to figure it out on my own. It took me awhile, but between Facebook and my blogs, I've gotten more comfortable with it. It's alot of fun, too. I can scrapbook with it. With an internet connection, I cna do all kinds of things.

• I am not as computer savvy as I'd like to be. I know alot, but I would like to know more about PowerPoint and Excel. Those are two programs that I never had to use in my professional life, and haven't used in my personal life. One of our co-op moms does a PowerPoint presentation with her lessons. It puts us all to shame.

• Today is hubby's birthday. He didn't want me to tell anybody, so I told everyone at our 10 o'clock service that I could. We usually let the bday person pick the dinner meal, whether eat out or cook at home. Hubby chose to stay home. We bought some crab legs and two beautiful steaks. The steaks got marinated and grilled, the crab legs got boiled. It was so good.

• I made an ice cream cake that was FABULOUS! I got the recipe from a friend of mine. Thank you, D. Everybody loved it. Go to the Homeschoolshus blog for the recipe. It is easy and simple and you can change anything and everything and have a different cake every time.

I guess that's all for now. If something Earth shattering happens, you know I'll be back. I'm looking at the top choices for the Supreme Court. I may blog about that. But I will be back with Part 5 of Tyler and Lydia's story. They are dancing around my brain, but haven't quite decided where they were going. I will update as soon as I know. Thanks for helping me clear out a little room.
