How I did it: There are different websites for each state, to sign up to be an organ donor. I always see posters at the Secretary of State as well. My mom is a nurse and has always said you should donate your organs because you won't need them when you're gone and you can help so many people. I've always planned on being an organ donor, but for some reason I was a bit hesitant to actually sign up. I was probably being selfish, because they're MY eyes a… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I was hesistant to learn to wakeboard...I didn't want to fall or look like an idiot. But, I was around good people and there was hardly anybody on the lake. I actually got up the very first time, and every time, and could even turn the board around and go across the wakes. Nobody expected me to even be able to get up! Read how I did it…
How I did it: On a trip to TN to check out some schools, we stopped in Bristol, TN to go into a cavern. There was a river in there where the fish had no eyes (they obviously evolved this way because they don't need eyes when there is no light). The stories and information we were presented with was incredibly interesting. I'd like to check out more... Read how I did it…

Wow…so I finally got the hardware to work so I could transfer VHS to DVD. I plan on transferring all my mom’s old home videos to DVD for her as an X-mas present. After all, VHS don’t last forever. I can see a lot of them starting to deteriorate in quality.
I’ve been sitting here for the past hour or so, watching some of the videos. My mom always taped me practicing the saxophone in 5th grade (I was horrible!). There were times I never even realized she was taping me. She’d set the camcorder on the ground a ways away from me and just record me playing. I can’t help but laugh. Somebody should have suggested that I give up instruments altogether…
So what made me happy today…
-My moms potato and ham soup
-Helping out and feeling good about it, with no complaining either!
-Getting all the laundry done
-Working toward my goal of getting rid of clutter
Getting along with my mom the entire day. Plus, she brought me fountain pop!!
