Update

Once again, Nat, love your cute blog reminders!

I know...I know...I promised you guys before I left that when I got back from W.V. I'd actually have pictures & I do...they just happen to be on dad's computer and try as I might, I can't seem to be able to E-mail them to myself so I can get them on mom's laptop, which is in my room, so I can blog about them. I'd just do everything from dad's computer, except that he's picky about his stuff and lately he's been on it a lot because he's hooked on Solitaire. Seriously you guys, I am peeved about this. I was on his computer for what seemed like forever just trying to attach the folder with the pictures in it. I sign into hotmail/msn, click on new message, click attach, and hit a road block. So I try it again a different way. I move the folder to the desktop and try the click/drag move. Doesn't work. I get a message that tells me, "Windows wants to open these images in a new web page." I DON'T WANT TO OPEN A WEB PAGE!!! I just want to attach files to my E-mail. That's it. So hard? Shouldn't be, yet I try again. I go back to the desk top. right click the folder with the files, click on send to mail recipient, and the computer starts to read the files so I think ok, finally this stupid thing is working with me. But my relief didn't last. A minute later, I got a message that basically said, "Sorry, our program doesn't support your E-mail address because you haven't upgraded to the new Windows Live Messenger" and then at the bottom of that, "To make a new passport click here." WHAT?!?!? WHAT?!?!? Are they nuts? My mailbox was upgraded to Windows Live, whatever the heck that means. The only difference is a new look when you sign in and a tiny bit more storage. And, if you don't agree to upgrade, they just do it for you. One day I just signed in and it was different. Oh, and I guess it offers more ways to interact with people but what do I need that for? I have a messenger already that IS Windows Live and the only person I talk to on it is my friend Mel. I don't even do that much. So after trying and failing several times I lost it. I knew if I didn't just get away from the computer, I was going to cry. Mom wants to put the pictures on a CD. She tried, it came out blank. So I guess it's my turn to try next. Other than that I don't know what to do. Sorry about my rant guys, but as soon as my dad's jacked computer decides to give me a break, I'll make good on my promise and you'll get pics.

In happier news, after FHE last Monday, I was taken aside and given a calling in the Relief Society presidency as the secretary. I already love the other counselors I'll be working with. A lot of the sisters are spanish speaking so I'll get to use my talent in that. It'll be interesting because sometimes I feel like I'm starting all over again, I kinda am though because I let my spanish get really rusty. I get by but I understand it now better than I speak it. Oh well...=)
