Well my last class was tonight, and I was so lucky to do my class from my sons field in Cooperstown!!! One of the parents had a verizon card so I could do my class and cheer for my son!! THis is what online is all about. This made up for all the late nights I did this semester.

So Tim is wonderful. He has been so patient working with me to get my portfolio readable. I loved Dr. Tomer's example and I followed it exaclty and hopefully now my project is readable.

My son has done great this week in Cooperstown. He is batting 650 but unfortunatley his team is 1-5. Oh well they are having fun and this place is amazing. It is such a wonderful place and so clean....it is like Disneyland for Baseball.

I will keep you updated with my portfolio and my son's Cooperstown progress.

Thank Heavens for Tim

Well Tim has been very patient with me with my final projects. He has tried so many things and now I just renamed my folders so I hope he can now access my files.

Cooperstown Dream Fields is wonderful. It is like a Disneyland for Baseball...My son has played pretty well...hitting about 350. He has played a lot of 2nd base and loves it!!! What a wonderful experience for all of us. I am so proud of him. I am so blessed because my parents and my in laws are here with us. Well the count down is on........

Good Luck everyone.

Well I just finished the final project. I think I did it right. Hopefully we will have a DIMDIM session. We leave for Cooperstown on Friday with my 13 yr. son, who is really excited!!! I am trying to get most of my work done, just incase I don't have internet. They say the house has wireless but after my week in Pitt and the trouble I had with my hotels internet. So I really want everything to be handed in if I can possibly handle it. I get to go pick my daughter up tomorrow from field hockey camp. This was her first away camp and I think it went really well. Well of to start my paper for 2000.

Well it is Friday and in about an hour I will start the rest of my FT weekend. 3 presentations so I am a little stressed. So thankful for the computer lab in the Information and Library Science building. My internet went out out the hotel where I was staying yesterday morning...that is a very stressful thing when you are an online student. I wasn't aware of how much time I spend on the computer working or just checking in. I am on my way down to see if someone can help me pronounce the names of the Indian tribes that we are presenting on this afternoon. I am excited for the tour tomorrow and really ready to go home...I miss my family terribly!!!!!! I hope it doesn't rain!!

Fast Track Week 1/2 over

What a great few days. I learned so much and now have a better understanding of so many things. I wish I could have had some of the info when I started but it is good to have it now. I am so glad the I met so many nice people and hope that some of us will be friends and stay in touch!!Well now on to phase 2 Fri and Sat. I have 3 group projects that I am working on and will be glad when they are over. It will be nice to see some of the friends that I met last March. I was so thankful to sit with Dr. Tomer at dinner and have a much better understanding of the project. Tim was so helpful and posted how to do the second part, CSS. It was easy after that! I was lucky enough to go and visit my 90 yr old great Aunt that lives in Butler Pa. She was so glad to see my mom and I. Oh, yes my Mom came to see me so I wouldn't be alone for these 2 days til school starts again on Friday. I am really looking forward to spending some time with her.

Thanks agian for a great 4 days!!!!
