Walkabout

weeping-buddha-1As these things happen, my main computer decided to go on an internal walkabout yesterday. It’s up in the loft, a place I won’t be spending much time for a few weeks, so not a big deal in that sense. But.

It is the computer that has most of my stuff on it, though it’s well backed-up. I’ve had it a long time, five years or more, and it’s not gone round the electronic bend on me very often. This one feels more permanent, perhaps a sign that the time has come for a new desktop.

I’ve used up all the tricks I know, usually enough, but not this time. It feels like a sign. This is a time for recovery, change. Leave some of the old habits behind, build new ones.

Fortunately, I have this little Lenovo that I take on trips. It functions just fine, but it doesn’t have the apps and stored data that my loft desktop has. It will work until I can get a new desktop.
