Not Much New, But Some Things Changed

I' m happy to say that our friends Candy and Scott solved several of my computer problems. Am now doing email via the little icon with the clock on it instead of the one with the stamp. And I can now click on an address in an email and be taken to the web-site. What a relief from copying and pasting which is what the Bell South man in India told me to do.

It's neat because information is easier to find plus having a pertetual calendar at my fingertip.

They also burned my pictures to a CD which I had not been able to do, but now I think I can. I'm not sure we figured out why I can't download Microsoft updates, but we ran out of time (and I forgot).

Lola spent the weekend here while Chuck, Lisa and Kara were in Nashville for Cheering competition. She loves the yard and wanted me to play outside with her, but it was just too cold for me ... and I can't run anyway.

Any research that I'm doing is on hold ... one project is closely reading Acts of the Apostles to see what was being preached ... and so far I've found that they preached "Christ." Nothing about what to wear or not wear, nothing about what songs to sing, and very little if anything about the traditions we follow in worship service. I think it all boils down to "Christ and him crucified" but I'll let you know when it's finished. Am ready for the 17th chapter.

As soon as I finished altering pants for Brother I hope to get back to Acts before beginning cooking for Christmas.

I know this is dull as dish water, but have hope.

Am reading Jeffrey Archer's "False Impression" about a Van Gogh painting. So far it's a mystery readers mystery instead of a novel that seems to make fiction into fact.

Peace
