LAN Down!

Reading Time: < 1 minute

I woke up this morning to no internet. Something, somewhere is wrong and I have amber lights where I should have white and green lights. And now, everything is off.

I’m writing in a room that isn’t where I normally write because this room gives me a stronger LTE signal, and I’ll need that when I post it.

I’m typing this on my phone instead of on my desktop because I’m not at my desk.

The candle that I burn when I’m writing isn’t burning because it’s on my desk.

The B99 and my daughter are probably leaving earlier than normal because all the things they do online at home for work and school will now need to be done from a coffee shop (but hey, the coffee will be awesome!).

I’m using data that I would not normally be using.

Get the point? All those changes (and I could list more) because our connection to the internet is down.

We’ll still get all the things done, but it won’t be quite as simple as it usually is. Bad connections make normal conditions challenging.

[Tweet “Bad connections make normal conditions challenging.”]

Maybe today is a good time to check your connections. With God, with family and friends, with your internet provider. After all, those connections are everything.

Well, maybe that last connection isn’t everything, but, hey, you know what I mean. 🤪
