Designer

After completing class on Thursday night, I feel so much better about using Publisher and being able to create my own website.  The hands on learning was wonderful.  I really got the feel for actually designing my own site.  I spent some time this weekend working on my efolio and website and have to say I somewhat enjoyed it.  Once I told myself it was homework ( thus giving myself permission 'to play' on the computer) I had a good time.  I didn't remember everything that was said in class, but I tried different things and was able to figure a lot of it out by trial and error.  

I have to say, these past few weeks have made me wonder... where have I been?  I feel almost negligent in not paying closer attention to the technology out there.  I should have known some of this.  Granted, I've gotten by, but why didn't I try some of this before?
