It was very helpful that Dr. Tomer placed a tutorial, in the 2600 site, of how to do our Koha project. I am just having a problem cause I can't see any of my postes except the first one....so I don't want to go any farther in case I am doing something wrong. Hopefully I will hear something soon. Vacation is nice and the weather is beautiful. It is working out pretty well that I am working early in the morning and at night to get everything done!!!

What a crazy week. I am glad my computer finally let me type in eprints. I realize now that I should have restarted and maybe the problem would have been fixed.

We I feel very fortunate. I am on vacation with my sister and her family, my mom and dad, my brother and his two kids and my husband and 3 kids!! I am so blessed with a big family and I llove that my classes are online. They were very flexible with the house we rented so I could get wireless and still get my work done.

We are in Deep Creek Lake in western Maryland. I will let everyone know about our adventures this week!!

I posted last that my son had the swine flu. Thanks to Tamiflu and large amounts of steroids he is doing much better. My daughter although just came down and said she didn't feel well. Lets hope she is just tired.

Well I was happy to finish the ePrints project this am. I reported that I had to cut and paste everything and then about midnight last night it wouldn't even let me do that and I had only 2 download left. So I shut down my laptop and went to bed. Got up at 6 to finish and it was like I was using a different program . It allowed me to type and do everything I couldn't last night. I guess I need to learn next to re start my computer and start over.

Leaving on vacation tomorrow...yes the house has wireless so I can continue to work!!!!
Viewed the schedule for our week in Pittsburgh! Monday the 13th is my Birthday!

Swine Flu in the house

Working hard with ePrints and so glad to see Tim's directions. Hoping to finish it today. My 12 year old son was diagnosed with the Swine Flu yesterday. He feels horrible. He is an Asthmatic so they are watching him closely as am I. I have bleached everything and have him in his room. The round the clock Neb's are killing. He was eligible for Tamiflu since he is Asthmatic. I guess they are not giving it to everyone cause they are worried about running out. I am very worried about him and trying to get my work for this week and next done since I am in the house for awhile and hoping I won't get it..... Time will tell!!

What a week!!! It seems as though everything is in high speed!!!!! Well I finished work today. Our schools let out half a day so I am offically off for the summer!!! So now I can just concentrate on my classes and 3 children. A little confused about the eprints project but I haven't looked into it too much so tomorrow I will start! Just submited my paper for 2000 which I am very happy about. Lots of reading for this one!

Have a GREAT weekend!!

Hi everyone,

Well this was cooool!! I recorded how to download the firefox extensions to Zotero and recorded it with Jing. Screencast captured it and I wondered how I would find my presentation. I wnet to help and Jing and it explained where the link was...almost in a private memory on my computer. It explained that all I had to do was decided where I wanted to paste the link and open the document and right click and paste and here it is!!!!!

Well just finished with our DimDim chat. It is pretty cool. I was frustrated at first that I could not access the chat due to Safari. I have also had problems submitting papers for 2000 and had to use another computer. Well I just took Safari off and went back to IE and the Chat worked and I was able to submit my post and response for the week. So I am much happier. I know a lot of people hate the sun that is on their computer from Jing but I love it...it makes me happy when I see it. This is my last week of work and then I hope the 4 classes I am taking will be a little easier to manage!!!

Yeah it is Friday!!! I am home taking a mental health day and trying to catch up on reading and work on projects for the next week. Relieved to see that our assignment for this week was moved til next Sat. I know have Sunday to work on it. I have 5 books to read this week so I am trying to spend the day in the sun reading and taking notes for a paper that is due next Sunday for 2000. My Multicultural class also has a lot of reading. I have really enjoyed those books so far and am starting Kite runner which I heard was amazing. Working on understanding Jing and how to download the firefox extensions.

Have a great weekend!

What a week. Lots of reading and tons of writing but thankfully everything is relivant and informative. Double Fold presented lots of questions of how to preserve some of our materials in our library. I am so thankful for the Thursday night Chats because they are so informative. I just started reading An American Childhood and THe Absolutely True Diary of a Part Time Indian for my multicultural class. Exactley 7 1/2 days of work left til summer vacation and I cant wait!!!!

Down 1 post

I just realized that I am down a post this week and not sure why so I am posting again tonight and will do better next week. Trying to finish my paper for 2000 that is due tonight and I am almost done...hoping to submit after my 2 chats. I found it interesting to hear that Safarie and Firefox were better with Blackboard cause ever since I downloaded them their has been problems but maybe it is a coincidence.

Kristi

Accounts set up!

Glad to hear that the problems are fixed concerning our 2 classes..it is funny cause I haven't had any trouble with the other 2 classes that I have been taking. Set up my eprints and koha accounts. Nervous to get back my grades for the first 2 projects. Busy weekend with 4 baseball games and my daughters Confirmation but lots of fun. I am getting ready for chat that will now be on blackboard the I have chat for my Information Literacy class at 9.

Well project three has posted a few problems and I feel that I am still not right about what I have saved. Once I imported into google it still is in a straight line just like in excel. I am going to continue to watch the technical post to see if more info is given before I post. I extremely busy with 4 classes but will be finished with work in 2 weeks so it should get easier.
