Disclaimer

There is a reason for the lack of new posts on this Baker Blog. My camera has been sick. For some reason the lens was making a clicking sound and it was having trouble focusing. Luckily there is a place here locally I could take it to have it fixed while it is covered under the warranty still. I am happy to say it is fixed and now I just need to go pick it up yay! I did borrow my mom’s camera and have gotten pictures from her and Shelley’s camera so at least I have some pictures of the past couple weeks!

Second, I have been a blurbing machine. I have been working on compiling and organizing my first blurb book of the year 2008. WOW – it is quite a job!! It started off as well over 400 pages and that did not include all the posts!! I am hoping to be done soon, but have run across a little problem with the pictures and the posts I used Windows Live Writer for. All the posts done with Live Writer have really low quality pictures, so I have to go back in my pictures on my computer and re-import then again. This is making things very slow going!! Slowly, but surely it will get done and I am so excited about it!!! **If anyone has any input on resolving this little picture issue with live writer please let me know!**

So……nothing super duper exciting has been going on – I guess I am just guilty of putting blogging on the back burner due to lack of a camera, making a blurb book, and finding many other things to keep me busy!

I also am working on my book. It's a rediculous task. I ran into the problem that you can only do 100 pages per book!

I am so glad that they have FINALLY fixed Blurb BookSmart so that it syncs with the new Blogger format. YAY! I need to start my book immediately!

aren't the blurbs a lot of work!! The kids hate when I sit on the computer during the day so I have nights to work on it. I usually spend all night working on it and let it go for a while and then do an all nighter again. There's got to be a better way =) I do love it though, the kids and I always look at our 2007 book, it's so fun, you'll love it! Oh sometimes I wish we lived closer.
