My Day at Kinder

Graphics Progam and Windows Vista

It has been (and still is) a journey with my new computer. Not only have I had to learn how to use a laptop and get used to those differences, I have also had to learn Windows Vista. On first glance, Vista looked like a system for people who just...

Robins Update

Some time ago, I blogged about robins making a nest in our front porch light. I thought would be good to sneak a peak inside the nest, as I figured eggs were there by now, and I’ve seen the robins sitting on it, (although, I don’t know how, with the...
