The Never-Ending Ramblings...

Publisher or bust

I finally created my Rapid Rally Flyer. About damn time, I know. I think I mentioned earlier, my mental block. Once I figured it out, I was on it. So, I guess I have to admit the hang up huh? I blame the software application. Word. I used to use Word to create what I thought were super fantastic flyers but not since I created a flyer from Microsoft Publisher. Here’s the idiotic part; I forget I have this application installed on my home computer- To further underscore my stupidity, I have a vague recollection, floating in the outskirts of my consciousness, of my ability to produce a real super fantastic flyer.

I feel out of synch, sitting in front of the blank monitor screen, watching the blinking curser…”Get Busy! Get Busy! Get Busy!” it screams. And yet, I can’t. Well, okay, I do, but all my efforts look horrible to my eyes.

Then, last night, it dawns on me, ‘You have Publisher.” It says. ‘On your notebook!’ So, my laptop came to work with me today. Neil Young’s Greatest Hits CD blared from Windows Media Player, and I created. Pulled in tennis graphics, typed up program descriptions, and boom! A finished product. YAY me!

Oh, btw, Laney played number one doubles – in a doesn’t count match – against a school from Americus – and won, 3;1. she was on her game.
