Mommy's Homework

Well they finally came in. My husband ordered me computer books. That was nice of him wasn't it. Before he left he even took the time to circle the chapters in one of the books I am to read. Do I not sound excited...well that is because reading "how to books" are very difficult for me. I have never been a person who sit down and read the instruction manual of any new appliance. I just turned it on and fiddled with it until I got it working. I only opened the instruction manual if and only if I couldn't get the appliance to work. My approach to a instruction manual is very simple and straightforward. Look at the index and find the page that deals with whatever it is I want to do and read that page and only that page!

My husband on the other hand enjoys reading instructional manuals. He will take one to bed and read it from the first page all the way to the end. If I did that I would be asleep faster than you could say Chapter one!

So what are the books that my wonderful husband ordered for me (and expects me to read, I might add).
Windows 7 Simplified--starting with Chapters 2,3, 4, and 6. I can skip chapters 1 and 5 for now, wasn't that nice of him:)
AND
Google blogger for Dummies -- this one I wanted as I want to learn more about blogging and get my site up to the standards that I see others. I am envious of their sites but in a completely good way. My husband hopes this will motivate me to read my new books.

So I guess I need to get started: Chapter 2 How to start a program....ZZZZZ

  1. I would be like you and fall asleep while reading computer books or even a good novel! I can't keep my eyes open longer than 5 minutes just before bed while reading ANYTHING! Best wishes on your blog reading. I'm finding blogging is definitely a work in progress! Keep up the good work! I voted for you again on the Picket Fence! :)
    Hope you are having a blessed day!
