Snowing again in Northern Arizona

Been snowing all morning...actually it's been more of a 'snizzle'.
Now it's large snowflakes. Sooo Pretty...(as long as you don't have to drive in it!)

My Son Justin...First video slideshow with Photodex Gold

I had purchased a standard, basic version of ProShow by Photodex in 2007.  When I bought new computer with Windows 7 on it, I had to upgrade to the ProGold as they do not carry the standard anymore.  Upgrade cost was $49.95.  I like it a lot, but their is a learning curve.  ProGold is for 'Enthusiast'...ProProducer is for professionals...maybe I'll get to upgrade to it later in the year.  :-)

Testing with Windows Live Writer

I had no choice on the above title with the font.  It was Tribuchet or nothing.  This body of text fonts was all on my computer..I guess…there were many.  I’ve chosen Andy, but I only had a choice of about 5 or 6 fonts on Blogger, so I don’t know if this will show up as Andy or the Courier font I had chosen when designed the A 2 Z in AZ blog.

Now I'm doing an edit from inside Blogger dashboard.  It appears my Andy font is still the font...weird.

Overwhelmed

Normally, I go about my day with focus and finish each chore as planned or multitask when possible.  The past week seems like a blur with nothing 'noticeably' accomplished.  I have so many interest and things I want to write about...I can't seem to focus on any one thing!  Well, I got that off my chest, so back to my state of confusion...signing off for now...Hope to see you real soon with a whole, new perspective on things.
It has been said that everlasting friends can go long periods of time without speaking and never question the friendship. These types of friends pick up like they just spoke yesterday, regardless of how long it has been or how faraway they live, and they don't hold grudges. They ......understand that life is busy...but you will ALWAYS love them!




 

My Daughter's 'Beach Themed' Decorated Garage

My daughter who lives in Florida sent me this pic in a text message tonight. Both she and her sweetie are smokers, but not inside their house (or car), so this is their smoking lounge....and it is so darn Saaaweeet!!

Catch Up

I have more than a year's worth of blog post to 'catch up' !!!  I should be posting everyday....at least once a week...at the very minimum of once a month....Can I do it?  Nah, probably not, but I'm gonna try to record some 'memories' that I want to live here on my blog.



I'm Bad

Geez....I haven't posted on here in about a year. I created this blog with the intention of posting things of interest for my two granddaughters...Alissa and Zoe (A 2 Z), but realized they seldom visited ...and they are growing up and I don't think they care for the 'childish' stuff I was choosing. So I'll make this more about my interest, opinions, projects and life!!  Although, I do have a new great granddaughter (born March 25, 2010), so I might be tempted to post more 'childish' stuff.  Gotta show off the new addition....Alexis (Lexi) Lynne Harmon.
