When the computers aren't working....

When the computers aren't working....

Go for a walk.

Life isn't all about computers and smart phones.

I'm off for a walk. Hopefully I'll come back to find that the other half is happy again because he got everything working.

Well, although it is incredibly frustrating when the computer isn't working.....I agree there is more to life.  I hope you enjoyed your walk.

Hi Jim, Computers have a way of pulling you in, so it is good to have the breaks and get in touch other parts of yourself!  Walks are great hope you had a good one and that Russel was happy upon your return!

My other half would be much help fixing things. The idea of a walk is probably good even if I'm going to fix it myself Jim.

Jim,

We bought an new traveling computer, much lighter than the clunker I now have.  Ron was working on it late into the evening with tech support.  I went to sleep, and I understand. LOL.  Have a great day. A

Hi Jim --- we get so used to technology that when it is off many people go ballistic --- it's good you can keep things in proper balance.

Jim,

I already read Eric's and Russel's blog about the computer issues and asked myself what were you ( Jim) doing while this was going on. Now I got my answer. I hope you had a good walk. PC issues are such a pain in the butt all the way around. Stay clear until the smoke clears.. Inspite of these issues I hope you folks have a really good holiday weekend..

It is such a great idea to just walk away somedays.  Craig gets up to his eyeballs in that stuff soemtimes and he just needs to get outside and blow the cobwebs out.

Jim,

             I hope you had a good walk, computer issues can be sooo frustrating! Lucky for you your walks are in a much nicer climate...I had to walk the dog in training twice yesterday and it was so hot & humid. The football game last night was so humid I felt so bad for the players!

Kristal — My other half often walks in and asks me what's not working. I know the feeling.
