Saturday started out to be such a wonderful day: we ate breakfast at IHOP (I need my Harvest Nut Grain pancake fix at least once a month!) and did some fun running around. We got home about 2:00 p.m. and things continued to go well for several more hours -- Carl doing some IBM work and playing with his new deck design software; me reading my book. Then a situation occurred -- a technological situation. We lost our internet connection! By using his finely-honed trouble-shooting skills, Carl determined the problem was our wireless router -- a very fixable problem.
We headed to Office Depot (a 30-minute drive) and realized when we got there that neither of us had brought any money! So 1 1/2 hours later we are back at the RV with our new wireless router. Of course, as is true with any technology, it did not install easily and Carl's patience was wearing quite thin.
This story has a very happy ending -- we have a working router and Carl is back to his very happy self; however, it is sad to me that a technology problem can cause so much stress and put a downer on such a wonderful day. What a crazy world!
