Technical Difficulties

We have had "technical difficulties"
with our cable, Wi-Fi, and telephones
for the past few days.
To say it's been frustrating,
is putting it mildly.
 
Thank goodness "the hubby"
speaks geek
(no offense)
and understands the ins and outs
of the modems, gateways, splitters,
and such.
I was lost just listening to him.
Thank goodness he knows the questions to ask,
the way to set things up,
and how to get my internet working again.
 
It amazes me how dependent I am
on technology.
I was pretty lost for the past few days.
Couldn't check e-mail, Facebook,
Blogger....
Couldn't look up random information
when a question came to mind.
20 years ago, when I was working at the hospital,
they were in the beginning stages
of "rolling-out" e-mail to employees facility wide.
How did we get along without e-mail?
Oh yeah, telephones.
We spoke to people, left messages and
hoped that they would call us back.
It worked....but e-mail is amazing!
 
I'm so thankful for technology.
I don't have to understand HOW it works,
to be grateful that it DOES work and
that some people do understand it
and can make it work for me!
 
Enjoy your day...
....I will be enjoying mine...
answering e-mails!
