Thing #6 - accomplished in #5


Well, turns out I already accomplished #6 in doing #5. The picture of the amaryllis was previously taken with the branch camera and downloaded on my computer. I successfully created my Flickr account and uploaded it, but was not able to get Flickr to communicate with Google.
So this (to left) is what I get when I try to upload the image to my blog using blogger's upload feature. Huh? It links you to Flickr but it ain't very pretty.

Thing #5 I give up!

I uploaded this image to Flickr but no way I could get it to "Blog This" with Google. When I tried to upload it using my Blogger upload all I got was a broken graphic. So I just ended uploading it straight from my computer.

I will now meditate on it and it will calm my irritated nerves.....

Okay, so now I've got a blog...

Well here I am on Thing#3! I listened to the 7 1/2 Things... What does it say about me as a lifelong learner when I had a hard time listening to the 7 1/2 things -- it went so slow! Anyway, the easiest of the things is "Use technology to your advantage." I've never had trouble using technology to help in both my personal and work life -- word processing, graphic design, and the world (shopping!) at your fingertips via the internet!

The hardest -- viewing problems as challenges. I'd rather not have the challenges in the first place - but that's life!

Well I guess I've become a blogger...
