Modern Technology

Modern technology can sometimes be very frustrating for me. Here I am about to leave home for a week and this afternoon I could not get on line downstairs with the lap top. Is this what I get for insisting that I am going to take the lap top with me?

I ended up coming upstairs and find that for some odd reason we were not connected to Internet on the main computer either. After trying a number of things -Turning units off and resetting, I was finally able to log onto Internet upstairs again.

Hopefully this will have solved my lap top problem too.

Life is good when things work, but when they create problems I wonder are all these new technology things worth it?

My bags are all packed for me to leave in the morning.

Bud will be leaving ahead of me, only he is going to Bloomington to catch the 6 a.m. flight to Boston, New York to go to Akron, New York to pick up a vehicle that Miles bought off the Internet.
He is to be back on Monday night, probably will be late. Then on Tuesday he is to take his mother to Chicago to Northwest Memorial to have three procedures done on Wednesday. Yep the day before Thanksgiving. I can only imagine what the traffic will be like for them coming back home.
Thanksgiving Day he goes back to O'Hara airport to pick up a couple and their little one. And he is hoping that next week end the trip to Montgomery, Alabama will be a final go. So why did he worry so much about being home alone and me being in South Dakota. Looks like I would have been the one at home alone if I wasn't going West.

I sure am glad Veda and David can stop by and feed the fish, or we might have a few dead ones before I got back.

Anybody hear anything about North Carolina having tornatos recently? Veda has family living down here and they were telling her what damages were done. I sure don't remember seeing anything about it in the news.

I saw my nephew got a Buck when he went out deer hunting.... Good job. But tell me why do people like a sport where they sit out in the super cold and all but freeze to shoot things?
