I put a new (rather older) video card into the graphics production machine and was able to reboot it. If I can get the driver working with it once again I can do design work with that machine. I think to celebrate I will take an hour break to cut the grass in the lower lot in preparation for assembling Noah’s soccer goal. Milestones and babysteps!

Google has lots of advanced functionality but it doesn’t jump off the page. I’ve known for a long time how to use google to search content within one of my own domains but that’s not something the common searcher may realize. Soople comes to the rescue! With an easy to use interface, the advanced functionality of Google is now laid at your feet. Enjoy!

No luck. Appears I’ve lost a decent video card. Hopefully one of my standbys will work.

Amy woke before the other kids left (6:50) but I left her to play in the room she and Sarah are sharing. I returned just before Tommy’s bus came and I buried the chipmunk that the outdoor cat killed just as the bus arrived. That chipmunk was large. I hope that it wasn’t the only one. I know I’ve regularly seen a chipmunk the entire time I’ve lived here. I much prefer the chipmunks, birds and snakes to the cat.
I got Amy dressed and she was eager to throw those clothes on. She told me “snap!” for each button. Noah had escaped to school forgetting his backpack and lunch so we took those to him and coincidentally got to see him in the hallway as we left the office.
Next she and I went to Kinko’s where she helped me by watching for the copy to come out then handing it to me.
We then went to the post office and she handed the rebates that needed to be mailed to the post master then handed him the money for the stamps. She waved bye to everyone and kept large smiles the whole time.
After the post office she read me a story from her book as we drove to the Boy Scout store for day camp paperwork for Noah.
Then we shot over to Walmart and sent picture messages to Mom while we shopped for ant poison and canned air.
Overall a fantastic run of errands! The rest of the morning was spent detailing one of the computers whose video card may have gone bad. I got all the dust out (completely took it apart) and it almost looks new!

Conversation this morning so far.
Amy seeing pictures on the wall identifies all the family members.
Since I am holding her and need to put her down I say “I am going to go get you some cloths, ok?” She nods her head with each syllable and slowly says “O….K…” with perfect enunciation.

This Morning
This is one of those mornings I really would have preferred to stay in bed. I was up at 5am and with almost no motivation I could have gotten up but I drifted back into a deep sleep with strange dreams. I dreamed of being in a lighting store (I think my friends owned) with really tall ceilings and all their displays too high to appreciate. They were giving me directions with road names that apparently I should have known but didn’t. A 6 pack of coke played some kind of importance as it was forgotten at first and then I ran back in to recover half of it.
This morning I woke with soreness and a desire to do my stretching exercises but not on the hardwood floor. I am stressed over my inability to put dents into the insurmountable tasks in front of me. Albeit I had a great day yesterday with accomplishes and having worked all day in my office. I even made decisions on how to proceed with some marketing of myself to rapidly bring in some income but that all depends on my ability to revive the art computer.
