Never Too Late To Learn--BACK UP!
It happened to me...
My computer crashed today.
First thought is, "This can't be happening to me"! In my
effort to prove that reasoning correct, I reboot. First
line of defense. Hmm. Still no response.
Oh no! What now? What will I do without my computer?
I call our computer techie. He tells me how to try one more
thing. He adds to *cross my fingers.*
That *one more thing* does no good. Neither does crossing
my fingers.
Into the car, I load that sorry-looking computer while
cursing it! Hi, ho, it's off to the techie's office we go.
My husband comes home from work. Trying to put myself in a
cheerful mood doesn't work. As I explain what's happened,
I can hear him thinking, "Oh, geez, is she a mess"!
I realize how much a part of my life my computer has become.
I can't live without my computer!
What do I do now? Not sure. What can I do now? Nothing. Got
to face the fact my computer's not waiting for me in the
next room! Oh, no, it is gone.
Maybe I'll get a good sleep tonight. But then I'll only
have to awake in the morning and remember I don't have my
computer! I'm not looking forward to that.
Uh, oh. I can't sleep. Wish I was on the internet. Wonder
how long it'll take to get my computer back?
Counting sheep (about 547 so far) isn't working. May as well
get up. Maybe I'll sit and write
awhile.
Gosh, it's quiet here in the family room. The tick tocking
of the mantel clock is actually loud! Weird.
Why do I love the internet so much? Sometimes I wish I'd
never logged on that first time! Days like this! Days when
that darn piece of *junk* crashes.
No, that's not true. When I get back that piece of *utter
magic*, I'll thank my lucky stars!
I'm hopelessly addicted to the internet. Admit it! I've
learned so much and have met so many wonderful people.
Oh, I fully realize I've got so much more to learn. Like
BACKING UP my files. Like doing it on a REGULAR basis.
I'm getting tired. Think I'll put my coat on and step
outside onto the deck.
It's snowing! There's no wind. *Charlie Brown* snowflakes!
Huge ones coming straight down. Tree limbs and evergreens
are cloaked with several inches of the stuff!
Even more quiet out here. All I hear is the high tone in my
ears one only notices in total silence. So peaceful.
Whiteness all around me and darkness in the distance.
Finally at peace and exhausted, I slip back into bed. Life
will go on without my computer, I tell myself.
"BUT from now on, I WILL DO A BACK UP every day"!
