A couple of weeks ago while waiting on the kids to get ready to go to a football game, I got on my computer to look up a few things. When James said they were ready I turned off my computer and we left. Well I just thought I turned off my computer! It was still on when we got home and the screen was black!!! I had to take it to the local shop and they didn't know what was wrong with it, so it had to make a trip to Atlanta. Thankfully it was a reasonable fix. The automatic on-off control had gone bad and something on the motherboard was fried. I did realize how much I would miss having my computer. It is my primary source for information.
I am old enough to remember not having telephones, computers, inside toilets, dishwashers and a host of other things. So not only do I appreciate today's technology but I miss my stuff if it isn't working.
I hope everyone has a blessed and Happy Thanksgiving!
Front Porch Stories is a place where I go to talk about things from current events to stories from my past. I hope you stop by and read a few.
