Tagging--Easy as ABC???

Tagging--a new way to share your ideas about books, photos and websites, right? Well, not if your computer is acting wacky, or if you have to sign up for bunches of more sites and remember even MORE passwords and user names. I've tried 3 times to add tags on the Ann Arbor library site for books I've read, and haven't been able to so far. Both LibraryThing and Amazon want me to sign up for an account, and I haven't done that yet. the CPL catalog is down, so I can't try to tag there. So, I'll tag this post and maybe that will count, right?

Holiday Fun

The July 4 Twin Sizzler in Medina, Ohio. We just did the 5K walk--we keep thinking that one day we will do the run, but as time goes on, the walk seems to be the perfect way to start the holiday!

The hat I'm wearing is the one I made while our son was deployed in Iraq. The crown is decorated with buttons, one per day that he was gone.

Busy, busy!

It's finally starting to feel like summer. School is out--in fact, we've had a prom and a graduation since my last post.

We have several graduations in the family this year, so we're planning a big family party early in August to celebrate. It's interesting that the same year my oldest granddaughter graduates from preschool, my youngest daughter graduates from high school.

Hey, this is fun!

I've been playing and adding things to my blog. I can see how this could become addictive. I'm looking forward to working with photos soon, so check back--those adorable granddaughters may be making appearances here before long.

One Down, Seven to Go

Here's my first blog post! Why is it when you're faced with a big empty box to write in, you can find absolutely nothing worthwhile to say. Hopefully things will get better. I'm looking forward to the rest of the 8N08 challenges. Who knows, maybe I'll actually keep this blog going for more than a few months.
