Technology, Smecnology....

Frustrating week ... when you work from home and have no Internet.  I see kids at their day cares, homes etc....but all billing, paperwork etc, goes into the computer.  Countless cell phone minutes used, complaints, 2 inside visits, one outside technician visit, one cable cut line, roadwork, a new wireless box, and a WEEK later...I am back online.  So this week, between the tears of dismay from Keelin that she could not, gasp, INSTAGRAM....trips to Starbucks and the library and any other place I could jump onto wifi, we had down time.  No technology means: no iPads, no iTouches, no netflix, no blogging, no facebooking, no emailing....but LOTS of swimming, playing in the yard, reading, taking walks.  So while it was frustrating, it was also eye opening and I would encourage any one to take a technology timeout.  (Of course if you could plan it around your work, your teenager's hormones and the like...you will be less likely to commit any type of unnecessary bodily harm to self or others....)
