Something Gives With My Blog

“He is a wise man who does not grieve for the things which he has not,
but rejoices for those which he has.” — Epictetus
I'm pretty sure my computer has a virus. Often, I'm unable to access this place or other places in cyberspace. I view moments like these as an opportunities to practice patience.  I'll see about
getting my laptop debugged.

One post, several days old, is still hourglassing, I can't get in to modify it. Just a little circle is going round and round in the edit area. Weird.

 Also,  after I edit a post and publish it, the edits don't show.  Like the point mentioned in today's caption, I've learned to see humor in circumstances that otherwise could irritate. If my complaints are the extent of my worries, I'm lucky.

My computer is playing with me, teasing and winking at me. It's lucky that I don't have a hammer nearby. (Kidding.) One thing that helps me during times like these is breathing.

Slow, deep breaths. It helps me to respond and not react, when frustrated or challenged. I exhale my frustration, breathing in the grace and ease I need.

I'll check in later. I have to meet with a client.

Thanks for dropping by. Wishing you a safe and grateful Friday the 13th.

My blog was formatting oddly the other night and I read online that the new blogger works best with Google Chrome. I downloaded Google Chrome and it fixed the issue. Might be worth a shot to give it a try!

I'm using Google Chrome. That's what confounds me! I think my laptop has a virus. It must be the rainy weather. :)
