Week #2 Number 4

I have registered my blog address though now I am curious as to where it will show up so that all my classmates can access it. I'm sure I'll find out!

Week #2 Number 3

I was able to set up a blog no problem (as I have done it before). I couldn't design an avatar until I upgraded my firefox window as the Avatar site kept telling me that I didn't have the capacity to use that site. Fixed that!
Then I was able to export my avatar by following the directions on the site, but when I went to put my avatar on the blog page, I ended up with two of her. I tried in vain to erase one of them but she wouldn't go away, so I erased the whole thing from my set up page and then went back to the avatar site and started again.
This time, my avatar ended up in a location I didn't want her and it took me a minute or two to figure out how to move her around the page. I now have her where I want her.

The one habit that I definitely need to work on is viewing problems as challenges. I do admit that I tend to view them as problems that slow me down and get in the way of my success and speed in completing an assignment. The more positive outlook would be to use the word "challenge" and I'm going to keep that in mind this term while working on this course.
