Its the litte stuff that drives me Crazy!

I don't know about the rest of you but does it seem like when something breaks down, everything breaks down? We are beset currently with car problems and internet modem problems. Meaning we can't get anywhere in either the real or virtual worlds.  All our cars have oil issues. I just replaced a computer several weeks ago only to have my home modem's cord get chewed through by my cat. And of course, after visiting various AT&T stores, come to find out that the modem is old and there is no replacement for the cord. So now 100 bucks later a NEW modem will be coming my way... eventually. For some reason I can deal, with earthquakes, mud slides and death easier than I can with this stuff. It is maddening. Maddening because it is so small and yet affects everything I do.  I work a lot from home so I have to have a working internet connection. Obviously a car is critical if I ever want to leave my house. So here I am, limping along on some default connection that is probably my neighbor's and hoping my car doesn't burn up because of loss of oil. 
Still when I put all of this into perspective... say Haiti - I really am still ok. Crazy maybe, but ok nevertheless.

  1. Car and internet? You have my sympathy. Both of those drive me nuts.

  2. I agree... it is the little things that send me over the edge too.

    Although, no internet would be a BIG thing for me!

    Hope things are looking better for you today and you have a great weekend.

    Stopping by from Friday Follow to say hello... and to follow!

  3. Hi Peggy,
    Last month my computer on/off button broke, luckily the shop was able to fix it. I was expecting to have a large bill or have to replace it. I'm visiting via FF and I'm now a follower. Drop by my blog anytime, it's nice to meet new friends.
