A. Morning Musings

6:15 am

We are definitely having a bit of summer. There is not even a breath of a breeze this morning, and the sky is a bright blue. Another scorcher is forecast.

Reviewing my "new" list of activities from yesterday, I did fairly well. The one glaring omission was my failure to begin some form of exercise routine. Ordering a couple of mathematics books was an admission that my math background is not as strong as it was 40 years ago. I need to review and refresh my background in modern algebra, particularly group theory and the use of matrices.

C. Actual Learning Activities

6:45 am

I have my coffee beside me. Now to have a look at my tutorial web site on XHTML and CSS.

9:00 am

I have had a good session. The tutorial is progressing nicely. I have improved the structure of the second module and have introduced the idea of an ID selector. My next task will be to describe the use of a Class selector. A good start to the day. I want to get the serious work done early, before the house heats up.
