I am trying but having trouble finding enough hours in the day to do the things I must do. I have been spending a lot of time and mental energy trying to put out fires related to my computer set-up. Today, I have spent literally hours trying to diagnose a network problem I have at home. Our wireless network is inconsistent, sometimes connecting fine and sometimes not. Last night, I met in Teleplace with my group and lost my connection. Then I had trouble getting it back and having reliable audio to hear my group members. So today, I vowed to let laundry and dishes take a backseat to getting my wireless printer working and getting the network problems solved. After hours, minor mental meltdown, and a bit of humble prayer. I thought I had found and fixed the problem. I changed the channel on the router and hoped for the best. It seemed all good, then the same problems reappeared. Square one is not where I wanted to be.
I have another group meeting in Teleplace tonight for this class and I would like to be a reliable class member. If I could go to my parents' house, that connection worked fine for me--but the time for the meeting was strategically planned for 8:30, after kids' bedtime. So I need to stay home. My husband will be accompanying my 6 year old to scouts and will be getting home about 8:30, so there's no time to run the kids to Mom's and get home by 8:30. I will be so glad when the time comes that we, as a family, get used to this and my computer issues become resolved. I'm not sure when that will be, but I am still working on it. For now, I am going to "take a break" and hang up that clothes basket full of laundry that has been waiting on me for two days. Then, maybe I can think about computers again. For now, at least the house is quiet, with both my little ones taking naps. Then in 35 minutes, I have to wake them up to go pick up their brothers from school.
