I am a Nerd!!

This is my son Chris with Ken Jennings. No Chris is not the nerd ,I am. I love Ken Jennings. He is one of my heros. Why? Because I love trivia. And Ken knows an incredible amount of useless trivia. Except he keeps winning a lot of money with this knowledge.
Chris was at a conference in Sun Valley last year. And Ken was the speaker. So Chris, knowing my admiration for Ken had his picture taken with him. And I also have Ken's autograph to me. And it hangs in my computer room.
Computer room. Does that sound impressive? Well it is also my laundry room, or spare bedroom, or office. I have file cabinets in there. But that is just for looks.
And by the way. I do own a digital camera now. So I can take pictures to put on my blog. It sits on my kitchen counter. Out of the packing. With the insrtuctions open to page 1. And there it sits. As I have new tecnophobia attacks. This is my Everest. And I will concur it. (just not in a hurry)
I am thanking God every day for the beautiful weather we have enjoyed. And up until a few days ago, have been swimming in the condo pool. Which is not heated. So it is like jumping into a tub of ice cubes. But you can get use to it. The pool never stays open this long. It is clean, and they put chemicals in it every week. So why not take advantage.
No one is ever there. It is so peaceful and quiet. And I seem to feel closer to God as I swim and do a lot of my praying there. Mostly prayers of gratitude for all I have been given, my wonderful family, and the beautiful earth we have to enjoy.
