Friday: meals

Today I had some great meals with friends. Jess and Hugh came over for lunch. It was nice. It's wonderful to have such a great friend. Dusty, Laura, and I went out for Mexican tonight. It was fun...even when Dusty stole the best part of Laura's cheese quesadilla.

Thursday: Office 2007

Today I feel as though I have several things to write about. Luckily for you, I choose the most light-hearted one. The rest seem to be on-going thoughts, so you might get them at a later time.

I was going to be away from my computer for a while today, so I took the plunge and installed Office 2007. (Huh, I just realized it's now 2010...that's a while). (Note that they were going to force us to install Office 2007 next week, so it really isn't that much of a plunge.) I mainly was using power point and outlook. Outlook was pretty similar, so not a big deal there. Power point...well, I like how they preview colors when you're changing colors, and I like how the dumb clipboard is gone (HIP-HIP-HOORAY!!), and how you can change objects while they were still grouped. However, I was having some serious problems with the slide master when slides were being imported from Office 2003. I also could not copy and paste a set of grouped items. I tended to get one of the items along with some extra stuff that just showed up. I had to ungroup them to have them copy.

Here's what I'm still waiting for Windows to put in...keyboard shortcuts to copy/paste two items and a way to undo something two "do-s" ago while keeping the last thing that was done.

Tuesday: Frolf

Today we had a sandwich-luck following by some team Frisbee golf. It was a great night. The sandwich-luck worked well, although we were almost short on cheese and had a lot of tomatoes. Ah, but that's part of the fun of potlucks, right? Sometimes you end up with a lot of one thing and not enough of something important.

Then we played team Frisbee golf, which tends to work pretty well because it evens out the good and not-so-good throwers. I think I would have had a blast as a photographer, because we were having so much fun...faces when the Frisbee rolls under four rows of picnic benches, Rebekah arching over a creek to get a Frisbee, Clay showing his son the "carnivorous" plants, Luke hanging like a monkey, and the confusion as to why there is confusion about which gate we were aiming for. Ah, fun times with great friends.

Monday: Trauma

I got the WoW weapon I've been wanting for awhile. It's name is Trauma...it is the fire work looking thing circled in yellow.

I know it's called Trauma, but it is really an anti-trauma weapon. It just did 10% of my healing on a fight, which is a huge amount.

Sunday

The quilt is progressing

We opened up the extra bedroom so that I would remember to vacuum it, and Flurry then started hanging out in the room constantly. Here she is during one of the few times she joined us in the computer room though.

Saturday: productive

Today was a beautiful and productive day. I recycled some old (and big) computer parts, did some yard work, did some inside work, and took a nap. I had a picnic with friends and we played team Frisbee golf. My favorite hole by far was the bird house high up in the tree, but there were several fun holes. And it was lovely to just be outside for a while.

Friday: annoyed

Today I am annoyed. At least we got to have a picnic dinner with Dusty and Laura. The weather was beautiful.
