I think I just went to "Word"   

Inserted a table with a certain number of columns and rows.  Filled it out.  I saved each weeks table and then brought it up and altered it for Week 2.  Saved that.  Etc.





But there might be an easier way.

 ​That looks good or an excel spreadsheet maybe, either or.  Did you then upload it to tiny pics as an image, view?  Just curious.  It won't be any good, if I do it.  There is the time difference, I don't catch up when you are on, mostly.  Also I can't access the show itself directly.  Some clips of dances won't take long on youtube, but the whole show can take a while to appear.  It would be better for someone to do it who watches it live with the sisterhood.    

That is what I did, gabriele.   I cut and snipped with the snipping tool and saved it to my photos.  Then used the TinyPic service to make it something I could post.




And sometimes that was a challenge....keeping the Chart small enough to "snip" from the screen and yet large enough to read when it was posted.

If someone simply volunteeers to have the sisters private message them their picks to their InBox and keeps track of them and just posts the results every week, that might be easier.

It was fun to have some kind of contest going on among us...

acknowledged that March is

NATIONAL WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH – MARCH
National Women’s History Month is an annual designation observed in March.






Who is a woman you admire?

 ​Would have to be Marie Curie, though she isn't in the collage.  Imagine starting a career in science when women weren't allowed at uni and going onto being the only person to have won Nobel prizes in two fields.  Just wow!!
 

Good Morning on this Sunny Sunday....
Hope your weekend is going well.  

Anything news worthy out there today????  Lets see!!!

 Olympic Gold Medalist Meryl Davis On Following Your Dream | Amy Poehler's Smart Girls →
We are thrilled to have world-renowned ice dancer 2014 Olympic Gold Medalist Meryl Davis share her process and journey with us.

One of the questions I’m most frequently asked is whether I ever wanted to give up on the pursuit of my dream. 22 years passed from the time I first stepped onto the ice until Charlie and I stood on top of the Olympic podium in Sochi — and I can honestly say that not even for a moment in all of those years did I want to give up. That sentiment is not due to a lack of challenges nor because of my own profound strength, but simply borne out of a genuine love for what I do.

I fell in love with skating as soon as I began, but what’s kept me enthralled are the new discoveries within the sport I continue to find.  Like so many young girls, I really struggled with my self-confidence growing up and became quite shy around middle school. Around that same time, I discovered that I could immerse myself in not only the physical side of skating, but in the emotions and the story I told on the ice as well. The athleticism and art of ice-dance became my outlet and my passion.

That passion gave me the courage to face my fears and my self-doubt. With Charlie by my side, I put myself out there. Together, we learned that sometimes making a mistake is the best way to grow, that being “unique” is something to be treasured rather than feared, and that hard work is often the only answer; as is the case with the stress that comes along with elite competition. Stepping onto the ice, with so much on the line, it’s knowing that you’ve put in the work and done everything you can to prepare for that moment that puts the butterflies at ease.

Fortunately, as Charlie and I explore the world beyond competitive figure skating, we’ve found many of these lessons and truths we’ve learned in our years together on the ice are just as relevant off the ice as well. Finding courage through my passion for skating and witnessing my own ability to get back up each time I fell has completely changed my world. My experiences in sport leave me feeling empowered and with the belief that passion makes even the craziest dream a possibility.

👀 so Emma is headed to New York. Maybe it means something, maybe it means nothing. Not getting my hopes up, but definitely keeping my fingers crossed.
