Online Class

I was eager to get to my email this morning because I had signed up for an online class called Type+Writer, at http://www.jessicasprague.com/   The description said " it'll be one that fulfills two sides of you: the side that loves to tell stories, and the side that loves to see things visually laid out".  That was what I wanted to get better at.  I have never had confidence in my writing & hope this will help.  English and grammar were not my strong suits in school. I dreaded it.

Scrapbooking needs journaling or no one will know the story behind the pictures.

Our assignment today: Think of your last adventure & make a list   Write for 15 minutes non-stop.  This was my list.

Also got my workout done this morning, Zandra got the house clean, Don wanted to do some trip planning for spring 2011 ( I wasn't in the mood to plan that far ahead).  We did get some of the planning done. Sorry Don I wasn't very helpful.  

Went to Weight Watchers and weighed 146.6.  I need to get back to my 140. I have lots of excuses but the truth is I need to keep track of my points and not snack.  This is my third day without a coke.  

Put a pork roast in the slow cooker with a recipe that Melissa McCoy gave me.  She was a former tennis player at Grant.  It was delicious & spicy. 

Didn't get anymore magazines done today. Maybe tomorrow.
