The Big 5-0

Just got off the scale and I have lost 50 pounds. I wouldn't believe it if I didn't see it with my own 2 eyes.

Week 6, Thing 14

Just spent a bit of time on Technocrati and I have been officially claimed. I looked around some to the top favorite blogs and quite a few were blogs that I have or currently read. Though most of them are not what I would consider personal blogs. I added a couple blogs to my favorites and I am pretty sure my blog is not going to end up as one of the top favorite blogs, I only have one fan and sadly it is me.

Update and such

Just a quick update on a few things. I am still walking at least 5 times a week and I have lost a total of 45 pounds. Jacie and I have added tennis to our exercise regime, we have started getting up early and playing a few sets before we have to go to work. I hate getting up early, but after a good work out in the morning I have a lot of energy for the rest of the day. My tennis skills need a lot of work, the only good shot that I have is a backhand, but Jacie refuses hit tennis balls to my left so that I use it all the time, she insists on making me use my forehand shot which of course always goes long. What's up with that?

Week 6, Thing 13

I have used del.icio.us and it can be of great use to anyone who uses many different PCs from day to day and who want to have access to all of their favorites sites. The use of toolbar buttons makes it very easy to use as well. Tagging items was interesting, but I found that some of the tags chosen for some sites were not ones that I would have used to describe them. I probably won't use del.icio.us too much but I will keep my account up to date just in case.

Week 5, Thing 12

Did some playing around with Rollyo and found it to an interesting idea. I don't know that I would use it that much, we use many resources at the library when we are working on the desk and each of us have our own preferences as to what sources we like to use. I created a TV and Movie search for my blog, since I love both, check it out.

Week 5, Thing 11

Library thing is a lot of fun, now everyone can see all of the stuff that I read. I could spend hours on here adding books to my library. It is so easy to use and it's free, and registering is so simple. I wish other things online could be registered for just as easily. I will probably add more to it as I read, this is a great way to keep a reading list.

Week 5, Thing 10...Way too much fun

Went a little crazy having fun on the image generator:







And here is my Meez:



I loved the image generators but meez, not so much, doesn't really look like me.

Week 4, Thing 9

Merlin was interesting, especially the training calendar, it will come in handy when CEU deadlines are looming. I didn't care for the animated talking head on the main page, she was a little weird and kept staring at me.

I signed up for some rss feeds, though I am still not the impressed with bloglines, I guess it will have to grow on me. One that I like is "Tales from the Liberry", very funny, we've all had patrons like this.

I checked out the Yahoo! avatars and created one for me, if you have been reading my blog you will know why I am planning on wearing something very similar to the boardwalk when I go on vacation next year.

Home at last

Well I am back in Westminster and my vacation is almost over. It's back to work tomorrow. We have to finish unpacking and I have mountains of laundry to do. Vacation was a lot of fun but I glad to be back, it was heaven to sleep in my own bed after spending a week on a pull out sofa bed. Got to go, that laundry won't wash itself.
