Flickr Fun

Took a while to find a free photo that I really liked. I'd like to try making stuff with the photo -- like notecards, etc.

Technology

I've been impressed with some of the blogs I've found through the carrollparticipants.blogspot.com site. The thing that most catches my eye and interests me as I've played with Flickr some more, is the ability to insert photos. I'd like to play around with that more than I have.

Hope

Perfect
Perfect,

What is it about this amazing plant that makes me feel hopeful? When it fills an entire corner of one of my shady gardens early each spring, I'm thrilled that a new gardening season has arrived. Maybe seeing this image on my blog will give me hope that I'll gradually overcome my struggle with the technology challenges being sent my way.

It's Friday

Well, end of the day on Friday and I haven't posted a darned thing this week. On Monday I intend to get the Flicker image in place -- I've done some preliminary noodling around and I hope I can pull it off.

Test post 2

As I look over the 7-1/2 lifelong learning habits, I think the hardest one for me is viewing problems as challenges -- at least initially. My inclination is to see problems as frustrations and I think that is primarily a time issue. Because we don't have a computer at home, I've never had the sense that I could just play around until I taught myself something. On the other hand, when I do solve a problem I love the sense of conquering something or figuring something out on my own.

Test post 1

It took me way longer than it should have to figure out how to change a draft into a real post.

Actually, I never really did get it -- I had to delete the draft and begin a new post.

Let's get this off the ground

Well, I just did the initial setup and it didn't seem too painful.
