UUURRRGG! We, my computer and I, just updated to Windows 10.
My computer has been running more slowly lately so I thought I should shut it
down and do a restart so that it could update. Boy did it.
All of my files are intact but everything looks different! Even my desktop wallpaper
picture is gone! In its place is a four-pane window with a blue light – a shining
Windows 10 light- glowing through, and I suppose, lighting up the black screen
of my previous Windows life. I’m going to be spending hours getting this
beee-awch (say it phonetically) back to the way I’m used to.
Singer, Jason Mraz |
That’s life. It throws changes and challenges our way all the time. Even if we agree to the change, it’s sometimes
just hard to do. I have the Jason Mraz YES!
CD, and on that CD is a song called 3
Things. It’s about what Jason does
when his life falls apart. Now updating the computer is not exactly life
altering, but that song can be a touchstone for problems big and small. As you
may already know, I really like song lyrics and I’d like to share this one with
you today.
The song says to first; acknowledge that there is a problem.
Second, be thankful for what you have that is true and good. Third, move on.
So my first thing is this here rant on my blog about
computer updates. (Sorry about that, dear reader.) My second thing is that I’m
thankful I have a computer to use and that I can read and write and communicate
my thoughts and ideas through this medium. My third thing is to just dig in and
get my computer organized in a way that I recognize. Easy peasy. Sometimes. And
sometimes not so much.
So what’s bugging you today? Take a listen to Jason’s song (the link is below) and
give his 3 things a try. I’m off to work
on my third thing. See you next time.
Until then,
Be Good to Yourself.

P.S. If you have any advice/tricks on how to best use
Windows 10, I’d love to hear it.
