Spellcheck nightmares!

I love my mew iPad but I sometimes get frustrated with it's auto spell correct feature. And the typing in general. I kno I hit the keys but it often does not register. I'll end up with some funky words! So today I'm just going to type without correcting and see what I end up with!

One feature I do like is that I don't alway have to capita u2 be UAE it will fix it for me. For example, all these capital I's have been done for me. And after I type a period it automatically capitalizes the next letter typed.

On the keypad, you've the letters separate from the symbols. After typing an apostrophe, the keyboard automatically changes back to the letters! Some nice features but it makes for some confusion when going back to my computer keyboard.

Well, so far I have not messed up too much typing! This is not making for and interesting blog! Usually I end up with an unintelligible mess! (thanks, spell check for automatically filling in "unintelligible" for me!). That's the auto correction feature that gives me suggestions for spelling but sometimes leaves me with some funky words! When I don't want their suggestion, I have to press the x to keep my spelling. But I often don't relize that the iPad suggested a spelling I actually don't want. So then i have to go back and correct it mysel (which isn't always an et feat because there are no arrow keys to easily move through the document).

And look at that, the iPad did not auto correct "realize" or "myself.". I wish it could correct my punctuation because I'm not sure if I should have put the period inside or outside the quotation marks. But wait!! I think it did put a period after my quotation mark! I don't think I typed that. Well, the iPad does put a period after numbers when immake my to do lists.

A hui hou!

Lazy days of summer!

I've been remiss writing my blog. I thought I would write at least two or three times a week. I'm writing this one on my new iPad, so generously provided by work!

So, what have I been doing? Taking ballet class once a week only, working on revamping the curriculum for the next school year, working in the yard, cleaning the house, taking aquacise (which my younger son says is for old people), crocheting friendship bracelets for my 7th grade girl advisees, reading, and watching all 12 seasons of Midsomer Murders!

I am obsessed with murder mysteries! Watching shows on t.v., reading books. I love to try figuring out who done it! I was like this in elementary school. My favorite books were the Encyclopedia Brown series. Sometimes I think I should have been a police detective. (I like shooting guns too!) But i don't think i could have handled the stress. If my work as a teacher keeps me up at night now, there's no way I could sleep if I was a detective! Maybe in my next life.

For now I'll settle for teaching ballet. Did you know that orchid is a Greek word meaning testicle? I digress, that was a quote from Midsomer Murders which is playing in the background. I better get back to my murder...

A hui hou!
