My Journals (3)

The ice has gone out on the river and ducks are back in the neighborhood.  It was 62 degrees today and will be in the high 50s for the next 5 days.  Sure beats freezing.  Snow is melting quickly now.

All my houseplants need re-potting very badly but my garage is too messy to find everything I need to do that so they'll have to wait.  I have a very big sorting job to do of many years worth of paper.  I have a bad procrastination problem fueled by my addiction to reading.  Maybe spring will help.

I have a lot of traveling to do for meetings next week.  I'd like to get my necessary work done at home before I leave.  sometimes a little pressure it what it takes to get me started.

Did I correct all the typos?  My granddaughter told me I was a terrible typist... as if I didn't know that!

I'm off to bed now.  Sweet dreams,everyone!

I still cannot read my messages.  Could someone tell me step-by-step how to read my messages.  When I click on "my messages" I get the menu listing who sent me messages.  But there is no option to open and read them.  I can save them, but I don't know where they go.  I'd appeciate an answer in either my journal or yours.

The calendar says "Spring," but it still feels like winter.  It’s difficult to believe that Easter Sunday is already over.  My thermometer reads 42 degrees F. but I still have a little ice hanging on my metal roof.  No St. Patrick’s Day storm for us this year.

I finally got around to filling out the blanks "about me."  I have a picture of myself on the desktop but don’t know how to put it on this page.  My computer skills are still somewhat primitive.

It’s a gray, gloomy day.  I can’t seem to motivate myself to get anything done.  Think I’ll do a couple logic problems and read for a while.
