Our Internet has been down several days and will be for several more -- something to do with the weather and signals and haystacks and trees and interference. Nothing like not having to make me grateful. I knew I enjoyed Internet access, but what I didn't realize is how dependent I have become on it for the little things like definitions, stories, recipes, ideas, talk material, biographies, pictures . . . everything.
I'm grateful for the blessing of the borrowed Internet.

I am totally dependent on it now and go it to so often that it's almost laughable. Often times I'll stand up thinking "Alright, that's it I'm done for today" only to walk out of the room and end up remembering something I forgot to check or an email I forgot to send so I go back in and use it some more.
I am consistently shocked by how dependent I am on the internet whenever it goes down. I find myself going to the computer so many times a day to look something up, check on something, etc. It's amazing to look back to when we didn't have it...
Chris helped my mom reorganize their desk over Christmas and their router got messed up in the process. It about killed my dad not to be able to check the weather, the roads, his girls' blogs, email or the news. I was glad to see I came by my dependence honestly!
Yes, I (cough, cough) need the internet too. Hopefully only a couple more days for you. Are you scrapbooking, cleaning, napping? What did you do with all the time?
That is definitely something to be thankful for. With out the Internet I would be forever lost in sacramento. I also get moutons of information on how to do things. I love my computer.
Like everyone else I am dependent on my Internet...I walk that fine line. :)
Hope you get your problem fixed soon!
