Went to an MSDN seminar yesterday afternoon and was introduced to some really awesome stuff! I won’t bore any of you with the details, but suffice to say, I will have some fun with these new tools.

Also got a peek at Windows Vista (Microsoft’s new operating system that will replace Windows XP) — I was impressed with the looks of it, but didn’t get to test any functionality, so can’t comment there. Internet Explorer 7 is a great improvement over IE6, so don’t be afraid to download it. Microsoft did a lot of beta testing on this one, and the beta version I tried out worked very well.

Nothing in the works for this weekend. Ken is working and I have to get a newsletter done for the Chihuahua club and have two web pages for the SHOK website to develop. Also have the normal stuff to do (laundry, housekeeping, etc) so it will be a busy one. I think it’s supposed to rain tomorrow, which will keep me indoors with nose to the grindstone.

My neighbor, Charlotte brought me 5 chrysanthemums to plant in my flower garden (which is overcome by grass right now). Guess I will have to get out and do that this weekend as well. They are really pretty colors — she knows what I like and I have white, gold and a real deep purple.

That’s about all I have to tell you for now.

Love to all,

Margaret
