When a Blogger's Computer Dies....

I honestly do not know what to do with myself. Our computer has been out of comission for nearly 24 hours. I am on the verge of a breakdown...

Exhibit A: My facebook status this morning:

Stuck in our pigsty with two babies under two, and no car, no tv, and no computer. Charlotte Perkins Gilman could write a story about it.

I know, it is such a "first-world problem." And I should probably use it as an opportunity to grow/learn/explore/etc.

One thing I am definitely learning? Blogging is such a part of my identity. And I'm not sure what I would do without it...

Here is to hoping that the computer can be raised...

from the dead.

Amanda @ Little House on the Corner said...: Ew, I'm sorry! I can relate - the same thing happened to me last summer when my computer got a virus. I was out of commission for over a month (and then my computer got stolen, but that's another story....)

Good luck! Hope you're back in business soon!; April 22, 2011 at 4:29 PM
