where did this week go?

 

I can’t believe it is Friday already AND the end of January.  Next week is February!  No seriously it is, go check your calendar.  :o)  How is it that time goes by so fast?  I think I need off the life train for a while, put life on pause for a day or two and chillax.  Wouldn’t that be nice? 

Well onto morning coffee rabbit trails….  what will I find today?

2.  I think I am going to order a copy of this Bible.  It has no section headings, it is not broken down into chapter and verse.  I have been looking for a Bible like this for a long time.  http://www.biblicadirect.com/p-1408-the-books-of-the-bible-premium-edition.aspx

At this link (http://thebooksofthebible.info/sample.php) you can check out a few samples of what a book/letter in the Bible would look like without all the extras.

 

3.  Hi Lee, What if your 13 year old daughter  isn’t interested in anything….or so she says. Loves to read but says she’s not interested in reading anything “educational”. Seems uninterested in most things the last year or two. Help? -- http://www.thehomescholar.com/blog/help-my-child-isnt-interested-in-anything/1709/

 

4.  Dear Computer Lady,

We have thousands of photograph files saved as .jpg files. We regularly back up these family pictures on to DVD’s. However, in your opinion, will .jpg be a good format to save for 10 and 20 years down the road, or would it be smarter to start converting the pictures to another type with more of a stable future?

5.  Dear Computer lady.

Just wanted to let you know that the Carbonite Online Back up is worth it’s weight in gold. I have writing two novels and about a dozen short stories and always save them after every update or revision (I thought) After not working on any of my writing for a few weeks I was going to work on one of the novels and it was GONE! Some how I had deleted it when I last worked on it…

time to go…

Deanna and I need to go through pictures for her to print for her scrapbooking weekend…

                             she is pretty excited!

 

Later!

Sawyer Glasses

 

So we went to see our local optometrist yesterday.  Deanna had been complaining for a while that she should go and one day I noticed she holds a book really close to her face when she is reading, so it was time to go get her eyes checked (and Jordan’s too just for good measure).

Jordan has his father’s vision… he can see like a hawk.  He still has trouble with color hue distinction so the optometrist advised Jordan to never become an artist.  ;oP

Deanna on the other hand has inherited my vision.  She has astigmatism and near sightedness.  Her right eye is worse then her left eye.  So I joked with her that she will have to get a pair of “Sawyer glasses” (a character from the TV show LOST).

She didn’t seem to like this idea too much.  LOL!

 

While I was in with Jordan during his test, she picked out a pair of cute purple glasses.  Her glasses should be available for pick up in 7-10 days, so she should be seeing fine in no time.  She may even enjoy reading more if she isn’t struggling so much to see. 

She is very excited to get glasses.  I should have taken a picture of her in them but none of us thought about it till we were driving home.    Oh well.  :o)
