Day 276: my computer

Hello again,
Today I am thankful for my computer. My computer recently has begun to die a slow horrible death and it has good and bad days. lol So I suppose it is a good time to be thankful for it and the past 5-6 yrs I have had it. There have been numerous times I have wanted to throw it out a window because it does not want to co-operate but every computer is like that-it is nothing personal. Lately I have a unique perspective I think on the usefullness of a desktop computer. I have had a few times that I have had to use my phone to access the internet or type an email and realized how much I love having a desktop computer. I love the full keyboard and the large monitor (compared to a phone screen). Smaller is not always better! Even between a lap top and a desktop-I think the desktop still has good qualities that a laptop doesn't. In other ways, I have used this computer for so many things like editing photos that I take, emailing, working on documents, doing paperwork for my mom, etc. So many things that would be difficult or next to impossible without a computer. I am not sure how long it will hold out but I hope it holds out awhile longer. During my initial recovery after each back surgery, my computer was essentially my only link to the world around me. I could not get out of the house and it was the only thing linking me to everyone else. So I am definitely thankful for the computer. I have used it lots and it's funny how outdated a computer can get in 5yrs. lol For these reasons, I am thankful for my computer.
