I did it!  I not only remembered the camera, but I took pictures and even 2 videos.  I am a proud mom.  Nick tried his best and has decided he would like to play even better so he is going to practice much more then he did before.  Nick is just so adorable playing his clarinet.

I'm learning to use the microsoft live writer for my blog. So this is my first lesson using this program and I luv how easy it is to add picture to my blog. I can even do complex picture creations like this where I stagger the pictures.

So here is an example of a staggered picture. You can see that this second picture is on the other side of the screen.

I can now have pictures inline with the text associated with that picture. Another nice feature that I can see immediate is that if I copy text from the Web, for example, this editor will normalize the text to match the default text for my blog.

So I hope to get more sophisticated with this tool and maybe even post to multiple blogs using the same editor rather than having to use a different set of tools for every site. It doesn't work for some sites like Blogger and my other site at MySpace.
