School, half way mark, & wikis

We are more than halfway through this semester of classes ... where has the time gone?? I look back over the four years I was in Ohio and my son was in classes --- why wasn't I taking them at the time as well? Even if it had only been just for fun??? *shakes her head* I must be... well, lets just say that I'm glad I know better now!

One of my class assignments is to choose a library magazine and write a 'wiki entry' all about it. Check it out, my very own "wiki" type page here about Computers in Libraries . As you can see, I've only just begun to get the hang of it, but now I can go gung ho! and get some more data. Gathering the data is harder than making the entry!!

I'm amazed at the different things to be learned, always something new every day. As always, in reading quotes, I find things that touch me. "If you've never failed, you've never lived." Don't know who said it, but it says a lot. Failure is never a bad thing, it means you tried. (and probably learned something!) Its nearly the same as what I tell people who want to know if its ok to ask a dumb question: "The only dumb question is the question that never gets asked or answered."

(And forgive me if this blog isn't as well thought out as ones previous. My mind is having a hard time staying focused, as I am anxiously awaiting word on acceptance of an offer on a house!)
crossed-finger *HUGS* to everyone!
