Monday: Still hanging out at the hospital. I think I talked to everyone on Friday about what I want you to do. But to recap: The seniors are going to work on the inventory using the netbook...talk to each other about what buildings/rooms still need to be visited. The juniors are going to start blowing out all the pc's in the HS. Ryan and Zach you take the main hall and down to the gym and show area. Dallas, you have the upper hallway from Keys/Hague's room to the library. Please do not disturb a class if the teacher is lecturing. Keep track of the rooms you have visited on a piece of paper and report it to me on the blog. Seniors--you report on the blog also. I'll be in on Tuesday, late morning as I have to stay late for some training that day. I will go ahead and creat blog space for Tuesday and Wednesday. Everyone should blog if I have a day there and I think you can even if I don't. :)

Monday: Well I guess you all heard that my 8 year old son is in the hospital. It looks like I'll be out all week again. I would like for you all go get the rest of the computers that are in the lab under the white board reformatted. Then when I get back, we can distribute those to where they need to be. Reformatt then add the memory (it is in my office), load novell client, office 2003, vixera, flash, acrobat reader, and I'm sure there is something I am forgetting. Please put a note on each machine when you finish it that it is finished and place back on the floor. If you cannot reformat one for some reason--PUT A NOTE on it so that I know what is wrong with it when I get back. gotta run, the dr's here. i'll post more later.

Friday: Today is my daughter's 20th birthday and she is celebrating in Spain--what a deal! We are going to get back to reformatting the pc's that were in the lab so we can get them in the classrooms and get my lab cleaned up.

Thursday: I will be gone next week Tuesday and Wednesday. One of the things I want you to do while I am gone is to create a Podcast. To create the podcast, you will have to use the software Audacity. It is installed on my pc and you can install it (free download if you want to do it at home) from the H:/Apps drive onto any pc in the lab or use the laptop in my office. Also in the Audacity folder on the H:/Apps drive is a document called Audacity Quick Reference that will explain how to use the software. (headsets are in my office) Also, in the same folder is a document called Creating a Podcast that has the instructions for your assignment. It first has some web sites that you can go to and listen to other people's podcasts. I am telling you this now so you can get started on it. I want an outline and 50% of the podcast recorded by Thursday, Feb. 11.

Tuesday: I'm hoping that the influx of infected machines is slowing down. We need to finish Mrs. Mitchell's classroom today but we have 2 more computers to reformat in there. I want to get back to reformatting and adding memory to the machines that we took out of the computer lab so that we can get them delivered and out of my area.

Monday: Hopefully this week will be better with less pc's getting infected and us doing less reformats in the classrooms. The morning didn't start out that way though with Coach Holtmeyer calling me before school even started and he was infected. We'll see how the week goes. Mrs. Buschjost just came in and one of her student computers has it also. :(
