Reflections on life from 40-something

Nothing for me today

June6

I over slept today. I found out last night that I had somehow caused my webcam to quit working, so I was up until 3am trying to convince it that I really did want it to function. I won, I think. When I first got the computer, I could take stills with it, but could not capture video. Somehow the new driver enables video (with sound, w00t), but not stills. Well, I can live with that, since I do have a camera. I think the video is more important, because I would like to make some tutorial type vids, and I don’t always have someone to hold the camera for me. Nonetheless, since this computer was definately not in teh category of discount office supplies, it would be nice if I could take vids and stills. But maybe I just want to much.

So anyway, no extra cleaning, no extra goodies, and I’m pouting.

    I hate it when my techo devices don’t work like I want. My girlfriend and I are going to go to two different colleges for graduate school, so I’m thinking about getting a webcam so we can see each other. I hope it works, or I’ll be very unhappy!

    Do you have your webcam pics on the web? I want to see. :) Have a webcam on tiptail.com, it watches my dogs when I am at work. What kind do you use? I have an old PC hooked up to it, it takes shots every 30 seconds. But I’d like one that acts on its own instead of needing a PC, but I haven’t looked into them so am behind on the technology.

I'm Cass. I am a full-time mom to eight great children, a Christian and a blogger. I'm also a knitter, a reader and a movie watcher. And a collector of eclectic oddities.

For the first time in 18 and a half years, I have my own little corner again. Somewhere along the way, I seem to have lost myself, and now that I realize I'm missing, I'm on the look out for me. You maybe don't know what that means, but then again, maybe you do. Regardless, this is where I'll be when I'm not being a mother or a knitter. This is where I'll be just me. And if no one ever reads it, that's ok. I'll know it's here.
