The other day, when I wrote about all the strange things going on with computers, I said "Maybe it's sun spots."

Then yesterday, the owner of our local health food store mentioned that she thinks the solar flares are affecting her energy levels... she feels weird.

Today, the computer is doing more of the same strange things - I'm trying to edit and re-write Wordpress pages for a client and sometimes I can go there - sometimes not. solar storms

So I Googled "Solar Flares."

This is one of the LEAST scary articles I found...

I've decided not to worry about it - because there's not a darned thing I can do to change or stop it. Worry does nothing but drain energy.

But it might be a good idea to keep our pantries filled this year. Just in case.

I thought these flare ups were only going to last a few days. I read the article and this is scary. To think we could be without technology for any amount of time. I guess I would be forced to finally take some time off. My family ought to be very afraid.

Marte, thanks for the follow up, I live in Seattle where the sun doesn't shine again until May so I know my computer mishap just was just a computer related snafu, that's about as technical as I can get at the end of the day.

As if we needed anything else to worry about! I can't do anything about this so I won't fret. I'll just keep my earthquake supplies up to date.

There was a solar storm last week, and they said it may affect our navigators, so maybe this has something to do with it???  I think next time I have a technical challenge, I'll blame the solar system (just kidding, I have no one to blame but me!!).

Sounds like a good drinking game...oh wait maybe not.  Hadn't noticed any problems recently but maybe I'm just lucky.

Debbie - Let's hope it's just a scare...

Adrian - the sun isn't showing its face much in North Idaho either.

Cynthia - Good idea.

Jayne - I don't know. What's going on with my client's Wordpress site is definitely strange... and new in the last 3 days.

Cindy - I hope it continues that way for you.

Hi Marte,

2 steps forward, 3 steps back, flares, magnetic fields, virus, fear sharing media mania, global gremlins, one day somebody will get it right but until then, lets take a deep breath, and then get on with living !

Peter & Linda - When I was just a little kid there was a song... "Let's think about livin', let's think about lovin'..."

A good thing to do right now.

Well, whatever happens won't hurt for long, the Mayan calendar ends 12/21/2012.  Meanwhile, I will continue to fiddlle while sunspots flare.
