Add this to My List of Daily Blessings

At first I thought, “Now, who did I piss off and what did I say that caused this?”

Such is my first reaction to finding both my Facebook page and my WordPress site unable to load from my home computer. Aarrgghh!

My ‘outage’ began last night as the wind whipped through the Spanish Springs valley sending small rocks and tons of sand blasting into the side of the house – so much so that I was sure the paint would be gone by the time the sun rose. Fortunately, the paint held up – but now I need to find out where the wading pool came from and return it.

Turns out it wasn’t really an ‘outage’ nor is anyone angry with me (at least that I know of.) I figured this out by going to the local library and using one of the county’s computers to sign in to both sites this morning.

Once I was able to sign on there, I knew the problem was with my home computer. I ended up having to delete all my ‘cookies,’ ‘passwords’ and ‘content,’ then reapplying to all the websites (including WP and FB) that I usually visit daily.

So I will add this minor victory to my list of blessings for the day — you know the one that starts with, “Hey! I’m still alive, breathing and am able to stand up right.” Another blessing is the fact didn’t have to call my son to come save my ass from what I thought was going to be an eventual ‘blue screen of death’ situation.

Yay me!
