of emails, tasks and xavix aerosport

Whew, I'm all sweaty at the moment got to just rest a bit. I did it. I burned 300kcal according to that xavix aerosport game I have. I got it for my birthday 3 weeks ago, I need to slim down and lose weight, so hubby got me a trainer and my trainer is Jackie Chan, sweet. But the real fan of the game is ReyMey, he has been actively using it also to trim down he is very heavy (132 lbs waist 34in) for a 10 year old, so together him & I are cutting down on burgers, fries and fried chickens (re McDo & Jolibee)

Anyway I normally only do about 15-20 mins of the game, beginners, which roughly translates to 150-200 calories -- you ask so why the jump?? I was challenged by ReyMey through an e-mail he sent me that If I did 300kcal he will treat me when we go to Marikin, my folks place later.

Well, ok, I must admit I was surprised... It's almost start of school but he still has a lot of free time so I told him I'll teach him how to use e-mail, and he agreed. So we sat at the PC, showed him how to sign up for an email account in yahoo and got him his very own e-mail--- of course sneaky mum has to know the password :-)

So his first example was to send me an e-mail that says that he has an email and if I could just reply back. I showed him how to save in the address book also. OK that sent, I logged in in the other PC to get my mail, and it was not there yet so I sent him an email and he got that immediately. Then I showed and sent him how to send an e-mail with an attachment-- and he also sent me one.

Next lesson will probably how to use YM . Maybe he's still a bit too young but he if it tickles his fancy....

When I supervised him doing the lessons on Type To Learn 3 by Sunburst Technologies; I downloaded the 30-day trial he was recptive. He did all 25 lessons in 55 days (about 25 mins a day) so what I did was reinstalled another trial in a different computer (as it won't allow reinstall after trial period on the same PC); transferred the database (scores) and reindexed it. Now he can type properly in the correct fingers (all of a sudden he could be a medical transcriptionist) ..... Hahaha why did I not just buy the software--- hahaha no money. I'm skint!

So e-mail, I showed him how to read it and how to reply (difference between to sender and to all) and I said I won't peek and he wrote that and sent it. What was he thinking---maybe this was because this morning I made him do another of the Bond Assessment Paper Tasks (9-10's) for verbal reasoning again, in exchange for a snack and he agreed. Sat down, got to work on paper 9 and asked for help on some items the usual. He even told me he noticed that I already got the next book which was for 10-11's. It was for future stock and use--- I seldom see it on the previously owned section that when I did, I just bought.

So after I reached the marked I ask him what he was going to treat me and he said he will share a glass of the 800ml soda I will treat him. Sweet.
