Adventures of the computer challenged!!!!

I have wanted to post, have not forgotten how, but have had some very interesting challenges.

As you know my o's have been 0's and I could hardely make it do the o.s every once in a while.
Well I had this account set up so that it would remember my sign in cause you guessed it, there were o's in it. So I tried to log in and for some reason it wouldn't bring up my info. I tried for over a couple of hours to make it work....nada nothing......boy talk about frustrated.

So a wonderful friend had given me her notebook which she didn't use as much cause she knew my laptop was getting a little sick. So it comes and I think I have to get a modem for it.
So I decided to go check out what I might need and what the cost will be. So I go into the computer store and am talking to the young man when my fingernail catches on the notebook only to reveal the cover where the dial up phone connection is, right there in front of my eyes.
Do I need the xtra, nope, I had had it all along......lol....so I waited for what......hmmmmm
frustration, silliness, ahhh a learning lesson.

The day was adventurous as well cause went out to go do this and my car wouldn't start, got it jumped and went to get it fixed, made one stop, not a good idea, so had to get car jumped again.
At first the news was really not good, it needed a battery, okay, that I could understand and then they told me it needed a started and that puppy wasn't cheap!!!!! And out of the budget range, so I am sitting there thinking and my dh looks at me and I look at him, I had forgotten to tell them about the anti theft mecahism my goofy little car has, if it isn't in place that little car will not start. Guess that proved it, we laughed and then went and explained. Yep, car started like a charm. What a day!!!!! Came home going I think I need a nap. Yep and I took one.

So now that all my little quirps have been worked out I shall get to blog a bit more. Thankfully I could remember my password!!!!!! Wouldn't that have just been my luck.....lol

Other than that thankfully it has been a little bit more of ordinary life.

My Christmas was quiet, which I really truly appreciated. Had small dinner with dh, grands came and opened their presents, naps, watched movies. Yep, quiet after all the challenges lately was a nice reprieve. And don't we all need those moments where we can catch our breaths, yes, we sure do.

Like Mary E. says LIFE IS JUST SO DAILY. Sometimes I have felt like that, when you get weary and life happens and you are trying to just take it as it comes. So you grab those moments of quiet and hang on to them when the storms come and you wonder how in the world you will deal with this. Eventually the answers come and the storm passes.

I think one of the things I want to be remembered for is hope in the midst of the storms, knowing who truly is in charge, (no that would definitly not be me, cause I make a mess of things!!!!!) and being able to trust Him when I cannot see or understand. That is true character to me.

Now ya all, take those breathers, enjoy the rest of this season, and remember new beginnings are just around the corner.
