Need Help with Website in Publisher 2003 in Websites JoeUser Forums

I'm so not good at this stuff. But I'm so excited! I'm working on my classroom's website. My district has allotted us some server space this year to put up a classroom website. My tech person said to create that in Publisher, and since I'm working on it from home, I have to work in 2003. I'm trying to add a slideshow from Photobucket onto my website. I want it to show up as the actual slideshow and not just a link on the website, and I'm not sure

Glad your first week went fairly well. We start on Tuesday. I'm so excited! I know most of my students from last year, and we have a new principal, who is *AMAZING*. I hope that your year goes well. I want to come visit your class!

You Mormons. I tell ya. ;-) I have to agree with your friend. Our friend, "Mormon Mike," is one of the sweetest men I've ever met. He's strong in his faith, and he just knows a lot about people and how we work. So...if you know any middle-aged single Mormon women without drama...Mike's your man (seriously...do you know any nice women?). Many of my Mormon students come from large families, and many of them are the most mild-mannered children. I like

Just Say "When." in Life Journals JoeUser Forums

I was talking to Ry today about a certain topic. As many of you know, I've struggled with mental health issues throughout my life. It really started in high school--10th grade maybe? That's when I remember it the most vividly. I haven't ever been diagnosed with anything but gernal "depression." I don't know if it's more than that or less than that, but it's something. I've felt at times that I may have bipolar disorder. I don't know what else.

Reply to Teen Pregnancy According Juno (and Me) in Blogging Stardock Forums

[quote]When I was younger I wanted to work with pregnant teens, but honestly, I don't know that I have any sort of special insight that would be all that helpful. [/quote] You survived. I think sometimes pregnant teens see the pregnancy as the end of their world. And it is, in a way. But they need to know that there *IS* hope, and they can survive, too. If I had gotten pregnant as a teenager (not that anyone would have sex with a morbidly obese, acne-ridden

Reply to Teen Pregnancy According Juno (and Me) in Blogging Stardock Forums

I watched Juno a long time ago (I wasn't that impressed). But thank you for sharing your story, B. It's *real* and not glossed over and not a "poor me" story, either. I think that your story could help other young women who have unplanned pregnancies. There *is* hope, you can go to school if you want, and your life isn't over.

Reply to Faith has found its way to me, now it's my turn to make it grow. in Blogging Stardock Forums

My husband and I haven't been good at going to church for the past few years. It just seems that when Sundays roll around we have a hundred excuses. I think we need to go to church. It helps us be close to one another and grow spiritually together. I loved when we went to Bible study together. It's nice to have mutual friends who are supportive of us. I grew up Lutheran and Baptist. I generally don't get as much out of Lutheran church (which is very

Reply to Debt Update #1 in Life Journals Stardock Forums

Seriously, who put a poker up your butt? Zig thinks we'll never buy another one because we'll get bogged down with "life." You know, work, kids, etc., and we just won't make time to do that stuff together anymore. And we purchased this bike five years ago, not yesterday. Lots has happened since then. It's HIS choice to get rid of it or not. I'll keep working extra and he will, too, if it's something that is that important to him.

The trailer *IS* for sale, and has been for a year. We're not just keeping it for shits and giggles. I think Zig talked to the realtor yesterday about lowering the price...we'd talked about that for a while. The bike is also an area of contention. He goes back and forth on selling it. We both love to ride. He just thinks that if we don't keep it, we'll never buy another one and we'll never ride again. He thinks that the kids will come along, etc., et

[quote]I don't understand why you are so attached to that particular problem.[/quote] Because, Id much rather rent it out to some dependable people and then later sell it, than do a short sale or foreclosure which would drastically affect my credit rating for future large purchases (ie, a home).

A Hormonal Hot Flash Update in Life Journals JoeUser Forums

Hi. How are you, JU? I hope you're well as your summers are winding down. It seems like it's went SO fast. It has, I guess. A few days after school got out in June, I went to Minnesota for a couple of weeks, and then I taught summer school for five weeks, and I've been spending the past couple of weeks finishing paperwork for summer school and trying to get my classroom ready for stud

Reply to Hurricane Fay Is Coming Right At Us in Misc Stardock Forums

I know this is totally sacrelige, but I would love to experience a *weak* hurricane. And a tornado, from a distance, of course. I've always been fascinated by the weather, and unfortunately, in our part of the country, we don't get much. It rained here on Saturday, and we're coming into "monsoon" season (where we get about an inch of rain in the fall and in the spring). Hopefully that won't mean too many indoor recesses for the kiddos when school starts. Take ca

We haven't purchased anything on credit for over a year. And we aren't planning on purchasing anything else on credit, other than a house SOMEDAY. Vehicles will not be purchased new or on credit any longer. They will be paid for with cash. We know we've fucked up royally. We get that. So we don't really need to be chastized like children. I think that Zig's done a really good job of saying "holy crap, Batman, this isn't working!" and has gotten our f

1. Who was your best friend in the sixth grade? Oh gosh...Rachel Abraham or Kathy Lenius. And I still talk to both of them on a semi-regular basis. 2. Who was your favorite teacher? What made them your favorite? Hmmmm...so many teachers were wonderful. And it's not what they TAUGHT me necessarily, but its how they treated me. I really liked Mr. Leno in 4th grade, Mrs. Windschitl in 6th, Mr. Bergman actually made Algebra make sense. I loved Mr. Carlson for histor
