Today we talked about dates in Excel. My lecture for dates is uninspired. Dealing with dates is important, absolutely. And it is so boring. Half of the lecture is, "watch your formatting." Now, there are several important things you can do with dates and a few almost important functions, so they are worth talking about. But...they're still boring.
However, it did lead to several interesting conversations later on in the day as I complained about them!
We got another picture of Tornado in a Tornado picture. He has the same annoyed expression.
I got through a bunch of my chores today. Not only did I actually get through a lot of things, it looks like I got a lot of things done.
Hmm. I thought there was something interesting that happened today, but it isn't coming to mind. Oh! It was our first good snow. It was during the afternoon, so I was able to enjoy it. It's that lovely time when the snow sticks on the grass (and leaves) but not on the roads.
We played some more D&D today. Isaac changed it up quite a bit and a spider that I was controlling scouted out a big dungeon that we need to go enter. The best part was when a sentry saw the spider and proceeded to think to himself that he needed to call in the cleaning people because some of his bad guy group was scared of spiders.
I don't know what Isaac and Joshua were doing, but Ben and I found this hilarious.
The professional pictures from senderpics.com came through from the competition.
Not much of note has happened in the last few days. The kids didn't have school yesterday. Today they were back to school and I was back to work.
Oh! There was something I wanted to mention.
I realized that pop cans can go in the 12 pack box the "normal" way or perpendicular to the normal way. It's much easier to repack them for recycling if they're perpendicular. I can't believe it took me so long to realize that this was an option.
