Well, Halloween is over.

We had about fifteen kids come over to our house for Trick-or-Treating. The kids who did come were really lucky, because each one got a pretty big handful of candy. The biggest surprise of the evening was that one of our visitors was one of my first-graders from school. He seemed happy to see me, so I felt good about that. I wasn't expecting to see any of my students from school since I live about eighteen miles away from my work.

I woke up this morning with a terrible sinus headache. I took some medicine for it, but it still hasn't gone away. I hope that it goes away soon. Those are the worst!

Poor Kazuko isn't having such a good time moving around. It seems that the baby is getting pretty big and ready to get out. If all goes as-planned, we'll be having the baby here at home within the next two weeks. The closer it gets to the due-date, the more exciting (and tangible) it becomes for me. (I wonder if it's too late to sign him up for tee-ball?)

Plans for the weekend? I think that we may relax around the house. I have finished the raking. I did that a couple of days ago. We'll go to an antique show at my school once we both get washed-up and ready to go. I hope that we can buy a formica table some day. That'll be nice to put in the kitchen. Regardless, I always like looking at the old stuff.

Have a happy weekend my friends. Thanks for reading!

Hi, Jamie! This is Masato. How are you doing? Thank you for letting me know about your new web log. After I got your mail, I visited this site soon, and I decided to incorporate reading your articles into my daily routine in order to improve my reading skill.

Recentry, I've tried to get and read some articles written in English via Internet in order to keep my English skill, but they are often too long, too boring, or too difficult to continue reading. Comparing with them, however, your articles are interesting, familiar, and easy to read for me. I think it will be easy to continue reading for a long time to come.

In addition, I will sometimes write replies like this. I hope it will also be good for imploving my writing skill.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to reading your additional new articles.
Keep in touch. Bye!

Good job Masato!

Maybe you can make your own weblog too.

Thank you for reading.

Jamie, in another thread, you asked about inserting images into your article. the hardest part about it is that they have to be on a server somewhere or on a personal web page so that you can link to them. Since I work at Stardock, I have places that I can put mine, but no everyone will.

If you have an image online that you want to link to, you can easily insert it. Here is a good html link that will give you some html help: http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_examples.asp
There are also many other sites that will teach you simple html.
