I again went to bed at 8:00AM, but this time I rose at noon. Much better than yesterday.
I managed to troubleshoot my problems with Corel Graphics Suite 12 and install the service pack which previously would not install.
Alex went off to school and Mom went out with a friend so I had the house to myself for quite a while. I started the lessons for FrontPage 2003 offered free by HP. I figure if I learn the program that it can help me with a web-site when and if I finally set a .com up. Someone offered me free space on a web server, so maybe I will do it, eventually.
I added some books to the list of what I read last year posted on here. It will take awhile to list all 129 books. Funny trying to remember all of them enough to make a comment on each one. Some are still in my memory, but a few have slipped completely out. This year I should write a little about the book when I note the pages in my reading journal. That is if I read this year, so far I am getting very little of it done. Having a well functioning computer keeps me busy and I do not read books so much. Having DSL makes surfing more enjoyable too.
If I get the sleeping thing under control I will probably volunteer at the library. That will keep me busy too. I already stay busy, but it will get me out of the house more.
Sometimes I wish human beings did not require sleep. I would accomplish so much more if I could just skip that part of life. The dreaming is nice though when it is not nightmares.
I really like the idea of this space on the web… The only complaint I have with MSN about it is the fact you cannot easily copy and paste text into the blog. I hate writing without a spellchecker. I mean is that not the main point of using a computer for text, so that you minimize your errors. I just discovered you can ctrl+v to paste here. That will make future entries better. I would like to be able to just right click copy and paste, but ctrl+v will work. Sometimes keystroke shortcuts are not obvious to me. I guess that comes with having mostly learned computers after the advent of Windows.
Well, I’m off… ![]()
Always,
