The weather has been nice all week, but I’ve been ill, and I haven’t had much time to enjoy it. I’ve managed to get a couple of reviews and articles posted, but that’s been it. Now that I’ve started to get my legs back again, my wireless network connection, which has been iffy all spring, has gone completely kerflooey. I may have to scrap everything, router, adapter, extender, and start over, and at the moment, I’m not up to it. Without the use of a thumb drive to transfer data from one spot to another, there are too many programs on my upstairs computer that I can’t access from down here on my laptop. It might be time to call in the professionals.
I may not take a solid break, but it sure sounds to me as though it’s time to cut back on blogging until I get everything under control again. (I might even start getting caught up on emails, a task I’ve been promising myself since ever so long, longer than I care to admit.)

Please get well soon!
We are all in your corner.

Try not to read too many books or watch too many movies, you’ll just think about things to write about them.

Steve, best wishes for a happy and healthy spring break.

Better luck, all around. And remember, these days the sticks and such are almost ridiculously cheap…but the pros can be helpful…

Thanks for all the kind words and good wishes. As you may have already seen, I couldn’t stay offline any longer than tonight, and the first of a small backlog of articles and reviews has already appeared.
Randy’s comment #6 has struck a nerve. In terms of my own reviews, I’ve been coasting for quite a while, mostly content to posting old ones from the past, ones that I wrote some 20 or 30 years ago.
Don’t know if I can, with not nearly enough time in the day, but maybe, just maybe, you’ll start to see my own stuff — new, that is — showing up here a little more often.
It’s a crazy idea, but it might just work.

PS. Nothing new on the computer front. As long as I can get by the way I’m set up now, I’ll leave solving the networking problem for another day.
