Hi-Tech Stuff - Living on the Fringe
My Kindle arrived yesterday. I meticulously followed the start-up instructions and had no trouble reading all the instructions on the Kindle, but can't get a way to order books. The little bars are all blank - not even the two tiniest ones are filled - as are filled when I'm using my Broadband internet connection to do this blog write. All the techie people check my location and report that I'm living on the fringe. I LOVE THAT. All my life I've tried to live on the fringe and now they tell me I am!!! Except in this case, it's going to be a bit inconvenient. Do you suppose I'll have to go to Greenwood (10 miles away) to get my Kindle to function? Or maybe even Atlanta? Do you suppose I'll be able to read them once I get them in the thing? Oh well, Luke or Tate will be able to straighten everything out for me when they get here on Wednesday. They also will have to help me figure out what to do with my new internet access goodie that fits into the usb port. It's a replacement for the one that goes into a slot with the idea that maybe a newer one will give me better access. We'll see. In the meantime, life goes on. --------Got lentil soup and cranberry molded salad made yesterday and got in a good yoga session with Maureen last evening. Got my flu shot and had lunch with Lori at Kickers - we'd been quite a few weeks without our lunch together so especially nice to connect again. -------This afternoon our group of Spiritual Sisters meets at Susan Tucker's to celebrate completing the Lovingkindness book and to get organized to begin the Insight Meditation workbook and CD's for the next several months. How fortunate we are to have this group to keep us all on track! And, even if I am living on the fringe, I still intend staying on my pathway! I may wander a bit and even come close to losing it, but I will remember my mantra - currently "I give my presence and love."
