Home Again

My movie is made and I think it is what I have enjoyed the most in all my assignments for both classes, lesson plans almost finished, research paper almost there too, and I am feeling so much better. I can only imagine what it is going to feel like when I can say I am done. Hope everyone had a good time at the conference and got home okay. This has been a crazy last two weeks and I am so looking forward to five oclock Monday because I am going to be on my way to North Carolina to see my two grandsons. I will not miss the paper work and web designing at all. Just want some down time and get torelax and read a good book. Got to get back to work no curves right now. Luck me.

Going down hill

I am going down hill and there is a big curve up ahead and I really don't think I can slow down. But I did win a prize at the conference, a paper shreader, Amber won a electric pencil sharpner, and Dr. H won a sexy blue lamp. Sorry DeNae and Sheree that you didn't win a prize. The conference has been fun and it has been nice getting to spend some time talking. I know if I can just get the rest of my assignments finished I will feel like a different person, that is after I get caught up on all the sleep I have lost lately. Got to get back to work, and by the way I did make the curve even if it was on two wheels.

Technology fun

We are here in Rogers having so much fun, with learning about new technology and getting a chance to visit with each other. Several of us are trying to finish up work and time is running low, but we will get it done. I have met several teachers that I have worked with before and it was great seeing them again. We have visited many of the booths and still have lots of time left to go to other workshops. One that was very helpful to me was one on Powerpoints that I visited this morning. Got several new ideas to use in my powerpoint for web design class. Got to run but will catch you later.

Count Down

It is done!!! I have finished with my WebQuest Website. I didn't know how stress I was until I finished that project. I feel that I can breath again. I just have to complete my reflection. The funny thing was I finally had to go and buy the Dummies book for Dreamweaver CS4. Everyone said Dreamweaver was easy to use, but I have to say there were still some steps left out. I couldn't get it to let me chance colors on the page and the size if my font was not listening to me, but I really didn't care, I just was so happy to have gotten it together. Now, I can work on my other assignments. How many days are left. Not many. It is almost midnight and I have to be up early tomorrow got to go.

Life is crazy.

I agree with you Amber, life is crazy. Life is flashing by too fast and I have too much to do. I hope to get these two research papers out by midnight tonight. I keep thinking I can do this, and then I look at the clock and think yes, life is crazy. I have grandkids over trying to pull me away from the computer and you tell a two and three year old they have to wait. Wait???? What is that? Hope everyone is looking forward to our trip, I know I am. The "Movie" is going to be my last project you know what they say about saving the best till last. I hope to get some pictures at the meeting to include in my movie. I have played with it a little, but I will have to finish it up over the weekend. Well, I have to go so be sure to watch out for those curves.

Half way there ...

Hello everyone, did you think I got lost? I have been so busy with assignments and grandkids I couldn't get on for a few days. I have had another first, I created my first webpage site for an assignment in web design class. There is a lot of thought and knowledge that goes into that for sure. I spent most of my week working on the assignment and I got frustrated a lot but in the end I did get it together and feel I learned a whole lot. This week I am working on a WebQuest and am having fun researching and getting it together. I am still working on how to do my movie, hope all of you are having as much fun as I am. I don't have enough hours in the day. I don't know about you but I sure have seen a lot of sharp curves lately. Need to speed up again, see you in a day or two.

Picture this ...

Glad to see your responses to my first blog. I really think I am going to enjoy this. I thought I would comment on the picture I posted, it is of my grandson taken last summer at the beach. I love looking at him so carefree, full of life and energy. I have this picture on my desk and smile each time I look at it and remember our happy times at the beach. Life truly is good and we need to remember to take time to make memories that last a lifetime. Dr. H, I hope you are enjoying the wilderness and some down time and are making some good memories to share with us on your return. I am taking two classes this summer, so I have to get busy on another assignment for my other class. Take care and have a great day:)

This is my first time to blog and I am over a half century old:) I have heard about it on the news and have considered writing my opinion a time or two just never did. A lot of us are that way, we have strong opinions on things sometimes but for one reason or another never voice them. I am blogging for the first time for a media class that this is required for so I can finish up my masters. So imagine that, when you think life is slowing down, it is just slowing for the curve up ahead and then here we go again....have a nice day and look out for those curves.
