My old computer gave up the ghost this past week.
It has been on a slow meltdown for some time now.
The CD drive quit working about a year ago.
Two of the three USB ports stopped working over the past six months.
The webcam has been out of commission for a very long time.
And then the blue screen of death occurred this past week.
Just in time for a new semester.
And a new commitment to serve as host for an online Bible study.
So I have a new computer.
And I’m slowly reloading all of my very important stuff…
pictures
addresses
websites.
Only to discover that I had “remember this password” clicked on all of the websites and programs on the old computer so that I would never need to ever remember any password.
And so I have spent the afternoon,
sifting through pictures,
updating address books,
and trying to remember passwords.
I love technology.
And I love the new computer that I have. I love the screen savers that look like photos of places I would like to visit.
I love the wide screen and the fast keys and the light weight.
I love being able to go online and see and talk with my family and friends with the webcam.
And I love that I was finally able to remember the password to get in to my blog and get this message posted.
And for those who see that I have not posted anything to this blog since last June or July, please know that it was a long and trying autumn. I am in a slight period of hibernation but am anticipating to coming back to full speed as the days lengthen and warm up again!
