Too True not to Post
The Spiral
I function best when all the plates are spinning. There are many plates at any given time in my world, and it’s all cool so long as there’s enough time to get to each one every so often and give it that little tap that keeps it rotating.
But sometimes the world tilts and there happens a teeter that threatens to bring the whole shebang down in a clatter of breaking ceramic.
I think I’m there at the moment…
Consequently I’ve arranged to be out of the office for a couple of days to attend to the spinning of the degree. Hopefully when Monday rolls around I’ll be able to say the biggest of my last two assignments are done. Then there are 3 weeks I’ll have in which to complete the next one.
Here’s hoping that taking my hands off the other plates for that long doesn’t bring them crashing down around my ears.
My Desktop Free View
I should be doing background reading for my research project but I have the mother of all headaches so I’ve been snoozing in a darkened room and reading blogs. It was over at Gabrielle’s that I came across this meme… how was I to resist?? Apparently it was started here.. so link back if you’re getting on this bandwagon too…
Here’s how it works…
A. Upon receiving this tag, immediately perform a screen capture of your desktop. It is best that no icons be deleted before the screen capture so as to add to the element of fun. You can do a screen capture by going to your desktop and pressing the Print Scrn key (located on the right side of the F12 key). For Macs, press shift-option-3 then look for the .png file on your desktop. Open a graphics program (like Picture Manager, Paint, or Photoshop) and do a Paste (CTRL + V).
If you wish, you can “edit” the image, before saving it.
B. Post the picture in your blog. You can also give a short explanation on the look of your desktop just below it if you want. You can explain why you preferred such look or why is it full of icons. Things like that.
C. Tag five of your friends and ask them to give you a Free View of their desktop as well.
D. Add your name to the list of Free Viewers below with a link pointing directly to your Desktop Free View post to promote it to succeeding participants.
The list of Free Viewers so far is:
