Up and Running... Again
A few days ago, my laptop fell out of favor with the wireless waves connecting it to the wide, wide world of the web. The Mac was still online via ethernet, but I wasn't happy with that so began trying various fixes that had worked in the past.
In the midst of all that, we were in the process of creating an actual office out of the junk room that housed all my nerdy notions and the varied media wherein live the details of our lives, like checkbook balances and birth certificates.
I had gutted the room and all its contents were in piles all over the house.
It is in that atmosphere that I got on my Mac to tinker with my account details on the service provider's website. I enjoyed a bright but brief period of success and, when all was said and done, and I hit the "Apply" button, I lost it all. I then had no wireless connection, no ethernet connection and not even a TV signal...
Oops!
My hubby who thinks of the internet as some sort of giant crapshoot said, "Just leave it alone for a while and maybe it'll come back on its own."
Yeah, right!
Then he had a better idea. "Let's pray about it, then go on and finish the office before you panic."
So, we prayed, I more fervently than he. I forced myself not to fret over it as we bought and built a desk and two lateral files. We even got two office chairs and an area rug. Then we set up the computers, printers, speakers and other add-ons. The office looks great!
Of course the piles are still all over the house, but we've made progress, AND when we fired up the computers, we had internet! So, we tried the TV. Yup, cable is back on, too. God is good! NO DOUBT ABOUT IT!!
