If You Give a Mom a Moment

Monday, October 18

We purchased our computer monitor a year and a half ago, and it's been having problems the last two months. I called Samsung, and they told me to send it right in to have it fixed (via UPS and they are paying for shipping. I love great customer service!) That does, however, make it awfully difficult for me to know when I will have access to the internet over the next 2-3 weeks. (Since I don't have any extra monitors lying around.) So I will leave you with a cute picture until I have a chance to get online again.

Have a happy week!

Great customer service is awesome! Being without a monitor (life-line) would be interesting around my house. Good luck!; October 18, 2010 at 9:31 AM

Just SO said...: We've had monitor troubles as well. Now we have to leave the computer on at all times because I'm worried that the monitor won't come back on when we turn it off. Sad I know. I hope you get your new monitor soon.; October 18, 2010 at 10:52 AM
Unknown said...: Haha. I realize now that Rick and I are huge nerds (ok, mostly Rick but since I am his wife I benefit from it). We have 4 computer monitors between 2 computers so this will probably never be a problem for us. Now if one of the computers breaks that is a crisis... I go a little crazy and Rick has to be put into a coma until it is fixed. It is for everyone's own good. lol.; October 18, 2010 at 11:00 AM

My husband collects computer monitors or something. We have 4 or 5. Plus our TV which is hooked up to a computer. We are geeks.; October 23, 2010 at 12:38 PM

It is a waste of time and energy to worry about what others are thinking about you. because... You can never know exactly what another person is thinking...AND, the wost part is...they are usually not thinking about you at all. They are too busy worrying about what others are thinking about them. So, the truth is, all those terrible thoughts you thought they might be thinking about you, are your own thoughts about yourself. Better spend your energy worrying about that...or, you just might convince somebody to think what you were afraid they might be thinking after all. ~Portia Nelson

"When we honestly ask which persons in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving much advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a gentle and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not-knowing, not-curing, not-healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness ... makes it clear that whatever happens in the external world, being present to each other is what really matters." ~Henri Nouwen

"...People need to talk, and often a willingness to sit and listen is the greatest kindness one person can offer to another. One of the first lessons of childhood is to be wary of strangers, and while this is good counsel to guard against the world's very small nefarious element, it also teaches us to block out the large majority of those who just have something on their mind they'd like to say. We are taught to be suspicious, especially of anyone who might not look like us or share our beliefs. By the time we reach adulthood, many have perfected the art of isolation, of being careful, of not listening in the name of safety. But the truth is that we need to hear other people, all people, especially in those moments when we don't know exactly where we're going ourselves." ~Ann Patchett

"Sometimes, I imagine my own life as a series of snapshots taken by some omniscient artist who is just keeping track - not interfering or saying anything, just capturing the moment for me to look back at it again later....This is the way it is, the photograph says, and I nod my head in appreciation. The power of art is in that nod of appreciation, though sometimes I puzzle nothing out, and the nod is more a shrug. No, I do not understand this one, but I see it. I take it in. I will think about it. If I sit with this image long enough, this story, I have the hope of understanding something I did not understand before. And that, too, is art, the best art." ~Dorothy Allison
