While I'm not the most technologically minded person, I'm still trying. I just finished an InDesign class, now taking a Photoshop class, trying to learn html, and improve my blogging.
I'm now working on understanding Technorati. It's a blog about blogs? Or a site about blogs? It lets you organize all the blogs you read. http://dotcomfamily.blogspot.com
Can anyone explain why it's so important?
Thanks,
Dot Com Mom
I also didn't get a chance to express my gratitude, so here's my thanks:
First, my husband-- a man I am blessed to have in my life. My children-- I am so lucky to have both of them. As the circle widens: I am thankful for my parents and siblings. I miss them all the time. And, I'm grateful for our old and new friends, and our growing community.
On a global level, I thank the courageous people who work for peace and social justice, those who work to protect our civil rights and liberties, and those who help the powerless.
I'm thanful for the simple pleasures of life. I stop and smell the roses now.
I am thankful for those of you who read Dot Com Family and provide comments and encouragement. So, thank you. Thank you very much.
This blog is becoming too much of a chore. I'm not posting enough. I'm no longer finding it a priority. I'm thinking of dropping it. I keep a knitting blog, and help my daughter with her blog. I'm getting a bit fed up with all of the blogs. Maybe I need to take a break.
I originally started it to keep our out-of-town family updated on us and our kids. That doesn't seem to truly serve the purpose. I don't know...it's sort of like writing on bathroom walls.
Yesterday was Kalil's birthday party. We had a wonderful time. The weather was amazing, and the party was perfect.
There was a Pokemon theme to the party. The kids all had a great time. I brought Owen who played beautifully with Kalil's baby sister.
After the party, we took Kalil home for a playdate. That gave his family some time to tidy up and hopefully kick back for a few minutes.
Our friend Dave came to visit for a week. He and Bob go back over 30 years. He was a great house guest. He helped with the kids, and even painted the kitchen.
The kids spent some time today painting in the kitchen. Owen is a very interested in drawing and painting. He loves to color and paint. Zoe is picking up the vocabulary of an artist at the ArtsCenter afterschool program.
