Rainy day

Cozy breakfast scene

This was the scene this morning — corn meal pancakes on the griddle, nice cup of tea, and Bode waiting patiently for his bite of pancake. We went grocery shopping yesterday afternoon even though it was to be warmer today.

Accomplished one goal today, backed up my 2007 photos to a CD. Made Bode a new batch of biscuits too. Saved the bacon drippings from yesterday morning to give them extra flavor.

It was raining when we went out for a walk at around 2. When we went out yesterday saw some mouse tracks in the snow by the river. The snow was too slushy for that today.

I spent some time working with sound files today. Discovered that the LAME library I downloaded for Audacity was giving an error when I tried to save an edited MP3 file. Was thinking of upgrading to QuickTime Pro, while trying to navigate to the specs page, saw someone was online at the Apple Store for chat. They suggested using Garageband instead. Discovered that the files were 8-bit and wouldn’t import properly. Got on again and another rep checked with a software engineer who confirmed that QuickTime Pro could handle the files and was my best bet.
