I'm Stranded!
A quick note to say California and maybe some other areas are being tromped by our internet server, Comcast. I'm on a borrowed computer and service is hit and miss. Apparently Microsoft updated something yesterday and it has caused wide spread problems. The national news reports that all of Sweden lost internet connection today. So far, so good, Microsoft! And we thought Vista had problems. I don't know when I'll be back on but surely soon. Until then, maybe I'll get laundry done! I feel like I'm back in the dark ages. Maybe I'll light a candle and start chiseling out my next post.

Oh for the days of candlelights and scrolls. :)
ReplyDeleteSweden not on line? Does that mean I won't be able to see "Blond Nordic Gods" today?
ReplyDeleteGood job that I have those special photographs of you.
So, do you do what I do in these cases? You know ... sit in front of the computer while hitting the space bar over and over so the magic computer genie will appear and fix all of it. When that doesn't work, I move my mouse rapidly from side to side banking on the odds that a miracle will occur. Kind of like a person fruitlessly trying to shake a vending machine to get their quarter back. *sigh* Gosh, you probably can't even access messages to read this. Hurry back!
ReplyDeleteGhaaaaa - I hate being disconnected! Hope you are back online soon.
ReplyDeleteOh dear...... I hate this kind of thing. How did we manage before blogging?
ReplyDeleteGet out the knitting!
Nuts in May
Haven't heard anything over here in Sweden, although last week, people were complaining that the entire Internet was down!
ReplyDeleteNot quite true as those of us who run Macs with Firefox were spared - i.e. a Microsoft-free zone!
Come back to us soon.
Nooooooooooooooooo! I hate being internetless. And Robynnless. I hope you get back up and running soon =)
ReplyDeleteOh my word yes, I can hear the echo-y fading of your voice right there at the end. You'll be back. Hey, I used to be with AOL..............now THAT was bad!
ReplyDeletelove, Angie, xx
Oh no! My internet service has been pretty hit-and-miss lately. I had service down for 3 days last week. Talk about going stir crazy! I even called my provider and offered to come pick up a tech to come fix it-if transportation was an issue. I think they thought I was crazy! Hurry back to us!
ReplyDeleteconnection issues are the worst!!!
ReplyDeleteWe had a wonderful time in SF, thanks for your suggestions!
Hope you get reconnected soon!
Blessings
Robin
I am also on a Mac with Firefox and have had no problems -- so far. But doesn't it seem to you that this is happening to an awful lot of us lately? I look forward to your return, soon I hope.
ReplyDeleteANOTHER good reason to get a Mac ..
ReplyDeleteYes, do chisel away... we don't want to miss anything!
ReplyDeleteHow can an entire country lose internet?!
Don't you just 'hate' it. I know I do! I'm glad you have found connection...and know that we will be right here when your server startst to behave again! :))
ReplyDeleteHave a good day...in spite of the computer-world gremlins.

I have been scanning the sky to my west, yet I have seen no smoke signal posts. Odd. Very odd.
ReplyDeleteDon't you hate it??? I do when things like this happen...
ReplyDeleteI always worry things won't run smoothly without me!!! :0)
Enjoy a bit of a break...
Cheers
I'm not stranded, thank you Lord. with packing to move I need my computer breaks.
ReplyDeleteLove you and hope you get back in the groove SOON!
That hurts and then also you will love the break a bit :)
ReplyDeleteAnd get firefox!
I hope you enjoy it as a break to connect with all things wild and grizzly and sweet.

Hi Robynn, I was just over @ Janine's blog. Yes, it's LATE for me here. But as I was sitting here I saw her Saturday post pop up. I got to read and leave and comment and it finally worked. Or at least I'm half way there in this leaving a comment on a blogger site...though my link doesn't take anyone anywhere. So I'm half way there in figuring out the whole blogger comment trouble.
ReplyDeleteHOPE your back up and running well soon........
My blog is transforming now with getting my sidebars back working and "RE Decorating" it all..post fixes am still plugging away but they go good. I can't believe how many are having blog or some other type of computer issue - it's the October Gremlins at work!
Love, Pamela @ http://www.seedsofnutrition.com
and by the way Robynn......
ReplyDeleteI got google friends connect also, put on my blog..how about that!!
We'll Miss you!
ReplyDeleteOh, dearie me!!!! I MISS YOU!!!!! ARGHHHH!!!!! Comcast is evil!!!! Hope it is all resolved soon before I get desperate!!! ;-) Love you, dear Robynn!! ~Janine XO
ReplyDeleteIt's crazy how out of it I feel if the Internet goes down!
ReplyDeleteOh no!! Shoot, darn, shoot!! Hope you are back soon :) Although I have to admit a few days off have left me revitalized and raring to go! Miss you sweetie :)
ReplyDeleteRobynn...checking in to see if the internet service is behaving.
ReplyDeleteMiss you!
Smiles,
Jackie
Hey, I'm finally back and your off-line??!!
ReplyDeleteHope it gets fixed soon!
I hate being hooked on technology for just such reasons. Living in relatively rural Vermont makes for iffy internet connections.
