the 71/2 habits/easiest and hardest

The easiest habit is # 2, accept responsibility for your own learning. I know that no one can do the work for me, I have to do it myself.
The hardest habit is # 6, use technology to your advantage. I have to learn the technology and the only way is to use the technology. To use the technology I have to see a purpose using the technology is fulfilling. So, since I want to complete the OCL Webthings Challenge, maybe that will be purpose enough.

scanning exercise


May I introduce to you my granddaughter Isabella Laurene Gentile, who turned 3 on 2/25/08. She lives in Ciampino, Rome, Italy.
Carly Coulter helped me scan the image and transfer it here and there and everywhere, wherever I was supposed to move it.
Isabella would say "Hats off to Carly!"

Flickr 1


I selected this photo from Flickr using the search phrase "Christian church buildings." When the photo of a building in China came up, I selected it because it reminds me that in every country there are people who believe in Christ.

getting started

Getting started is always a hard thing to do.
