One Bite at a Time

I bought this book about 3 weeks ago. I want to learn it. I promise I do. I know I can do it. I learned a little html programming while I was in nursing school and there isn't anything difficult about it. It's just a little time consuming. Actually, I enjoy learning how to do new things on the net.

The problem is...do you see the size of this thing? It is 899 pages...gulp! I keep reminding myself of that old saying about how you eat an elephant one bite at a time. I really want to eat this elephant, I am just having trouble taking that first bite. I need to set a goal for myself of a specific number of pages per day. Let's see, if I only study 10 pages per day, I can get done in 90 days. Hey, that's not so bad. Okay, I'm going to take that first bite today...boy, I better be hungry.

  1. The size was ALL I saw. That sucker is thick! But definitely a worthwhile goal. My MIL and I are starting a continuing education class on this sort of thing next week. I'm excited about it!

  2. Are you a nurse, too?

    And you dream of tornados?

    Girl, we so have to meet. I'm not kidding. The end.

If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. No need to point out my mistakes, I have family for that.
