Pretty Orchid Video

Hello! Here is my try at an Orchid Video. I did get to view it. Very relaxing.
In order to view it though, I had to wait for a public computer to be free. Dont know why the one at the Childrens Desk and here in my office would not allow the video. I also tried it on the public computer in the Childrens Room, where I often see patrons watching a video. And I was told it had Flash Player on it. But it would tell me Page Not Available. Just some of the trials and tribulations I had.

Now I see that it will not link to the video!
I tried to copy and paste the "address". I also tried to e-mail it to myself. I got a message from them but that was about it. But all in all I did have a good time with it. I went home from work feeling pretty happy. And I know that some of the cobwebs we get were cleared out from my YouTube Experience. It is fun to learn.
Will try again soon...

The trials of me and YouTube

Have been attempting to see what I can do with YouTube. I worked with the Help but cannot get by installing Flash Player. I keep going around in circles. And I dont understand about my JavaScript being turned off. Called my computer savy sister. I will check with her again. Did find a video on orchids that I would like to work with. Would have been nice to view it. Well this is what I did with my lessons today. Will try again soon....And if all else fails...Guess I'll go visit my sister and work on her computer. Pamela did invite me to 4cl. Could do that too.
-Must say that old dogs has made me want to get a better computer at home. Maybe I will stimulate the economy with my govt check and see what Dell has for me.
Signing off for today...

Audiobook and an ebook from NYPL

Tried this selection for Browse Children's as my ebook. Am waiting for an e-mail to tell me when it will be available. Always liked Gail Carson Levine's books and have not had a chance to read this one yet. Will let you know how the e-mail turns out.

Also chose from NYPL's Always Available Audiobooks, Thomas Hardy's Return of the native. I read this book over 30 years ago in high school for Novel class in my senior year. I remember the teacher Mr Capp was THE BEST Teacher ever. He got me through a lot of books that year. And he always made them enjoyable with his special ways of teaching.

-I downloaded it to a CD. Something I had never done before. Tonight I will spend some time seeing if I can bring it up to read...

Well I wasnt able to go into what I thought I had downloaded. It kept copying and copying all the while I was having supper. Like Gene said - its out in cyberspace somewhere. Guess I'll have to go downstairs and get "Return of" out of the storeroom here at the Library if I want to read about Eustasia again. This Native is returning to work...

Northern Lights at Yellowknife Canada

My sister sent me this cool picture of the Northern Lights.

We do go camping and I would love to stay in one of these teepees.

And also these photos of frozen waves. Would love to see them myself.

Did also try to have more than one photo posted on my blog like Gene did. I still remembered how to take them off my e-mail. But I had a little trouble getting them arranged just right. Will have to practice this again sometime.

Trying scolling...Again...

Vegas!

Ah!! Las Vegas!!

This weekend it is my 6 month anniversary of being married at the Little White Chapel. At it drive up window.

Happy Anniversary to Me!

Found the picture on Flickr. And was able to transfer it to my blog with no problems.

Happy Blogging to Me too!

Heart Generator

Oh Wow! I did an Image Generator! I saw the really Nice one that Violet made with a Jumbotron Generator. And I thought let's give it a try. Have been eating a lot of these candy hearts from Valentine's Day. I may have to go back and try another image generator. Pamela said they can be addictive. BW

New York Public Library Card

It is quite exciting having a NYPL card. The only Library card I have ever had was for our local Library and I work there. So I don't even pull it out to take a book out. Tomorrow I am going to listen to the tutorial - if I can find how to plug in the earphones! I just tried and the tower in my office is almost impossible to get to the back of it. And here at work I plug in the e.phones in our Children's room at least once a day when we set up in the morning. But I WILL get them to work up here in MY office. Maybe it's the headset. I will have to borrow a pair from our J room.

8:00 have to go help lock up the Library...

Tomorrow is another day for us "Old Dogs"...

All Right!! I got help from our young college student Rebecca who works here at the Library parttime. She showed me that there is also a plug area in the FRONT of the tower! She is so good to me. I gave her a hug. Will tell more about my adventures soon.

CLIP ART!!!

YEAH!! I was able to take a picture off of the Microsoft site with their Clip Art and put it on my Blog! The only thing I am a little disappointed about is that the picture MOVED on the website. And the little child is not playing with the Teddy Bear. Oh well. It was cute on the site.
