Face lift and an overhaul….I could use both…but its my blog that is undergoing them.   This will take a little while–to finish its new look and get it working complete with new widgets etc..  My husband (technical with no time) and me (technically challenged) are DIYing this…and so will take awhile.  Meanwhile I’m going to keep on blogging.

This Monday morning my brain has been working so far (love that).  I just paid our bills online.  Isn’t it amazing to be able to pay bills online?  As a mostly homebounder I find this almost magical.  After I click the “submit payment” I get this ”warm and wonderful…wow… I can still do important stuff”  feeling.   As those of you physically challenged by ME/CFS and other energy draining conditions which don’t allow much “doing”, I know you can relate to how terrific it feels to get something done.

What an age to be home-bound in.  Being home-bound isn’t much fun (subject for another post), but to be so now, at a time when you can pick up an electronic machine small and lite enough to fit on your lap, and use it to pay your bills….communicate with friends…do some shopping…research without going to the library…just blows me away!

Okay, I can feel my brain tiring…darn it, time for a cognitive rest.  Time to pull myself away from my amazing laptop, my window that lets me step out into the world without moving my feet.   This is never easy, kind of like pulling gum off a shoe….but if I want to be able to think later…got to do it.  Sigh…okay…here goes…

Happy Monday my friends.  May you feel as well as you possibly can.

    The new look is nice, and it loaded pretty quickly, too. I really need to make some blog upgrades – I admire your initiative!

    You are so right about being homebound in the age of the internet. Having just come out of a month-long severe crash, I can’t imagine how much more isolated I’d feel without my cyber connections. And I also paid my bills online last week, while lying flat on my back on the couch!

    Very nice new look!

    Thanks for putting your finger on something I often forget to be grateful for. Without my computer I would be so isolated. It has become a ‘must have’ like a telephone, a fridge and a washing machine and I tend to take it for granted these days.

    My online friends, who are also of the wonders of the internet…glad you like my blogs new look. Oh mi gosh though…am I finding it challenging to get the side bars set…definately going to take time.

    Sue, wow, online bills payed while flat on your back…you are one up on me as I was sitting in a chair. Who would have known there’d be joy in paying bills…
    Hoping you are coming out of your crash, gotta get over to your blog and see how you’re doing.

    Jozephine, no friends to be found inside the wash machine or dishwasher…definately our laptops win…as long as we can stand our laundry and dishes piling up.

    Renee, what helps me hold my laptop comfortably is my cushioned lap desk especially for laptops. It has a heat mediator on the top which is nice and the bottom is like a pillow so it melds to whatever position I’m sitting in. I prop my arms up with pillows which also helps. My laptop is an HP, its old…dreaming of a Mac someday. Glad you like the lemons…

  7. We did grocery shopping online right after my wife returned from the hospital unable to walk. And I’ve been paying bills online for a couple of years at least. Cool stuff. I’m glad you’re taking advantage of it and that it’s working for you!

    I really like the new layout!
