New year, new computer….

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!
