Working on the Moo

On Thursday after work I headed over to SCSU to work on my slides. Luckily for me, I had a word document with what I wanted on my slides. After settling in at the library and finally locating mudwalker (not on my desktop), I pulled out the notes I had taken in our session. I couldn't believe how much I had forgotten!

I was very happy that Dr. Kilborn had emailed me our log; it was a lifsaver. I had taken pretty good notes, but had forgotten to write down how to actually create the slide- the most important detail of all! But, I was able to look it up on our log and began making my slides.

I was glad I had time because I sure had trouble at first. I kept unintentially using the wrong backslash and so the program would just say "that is an invalid command" and the whole thing would be gone. Once I figured out my problem there, then the information kept posting on the slide I had created for practice- not the one I had just created! Luckily, I knew the peek command! Finally, I just recycled that slide and didn't have trouble again. Strange!

So, I hope all goes well on Monday. I know the slides are there and loaded, and I remembered to take "the mikell" with me when I left. When we had our fun day share, I had difficulty reading what other people wrote because I was so concerned about what I was going to type. I am hoping for nimble fingers!
