Advantages to having Internet Problems...

Hi: Funny you should bring that subject up. I had that problem last night. We've been having a lot of rain and a few thunder boomers around here for the last few days. I think that must have something to do with our connection. Anyway, I must say I made myself a cup of tea and watched home-garden TV. I could really get addicted to all those reno shows.

When my Internet connection mysteriously evaporates into thin air, cyber air that is, I usually take out my laptop and continue my writings on it. This still allows my creative juices to continue and I don't have to look at the dirty dishes in my sink, or think about how scruffy the floors have been looking lately. The problem I have encountered with this is that, living in the country I have yet to get a wireless connection (I heard those "tsk tsks"!) I end up with some of my best articles on my laptop and don't always feel like transferring them to the desktop computer. I just never seem to get around to it.

Lol get bored, but saying that as my PSP does not need the Internet I would just do my Graphics lol and then when I have my Internet back I can upload then onto my Site At Night I would go to bed earlier and read my Book

That's good you accomplished something while not being able to use your computer. When I have computer problems, I do work on crafts. Also have a back up computer which is old but works that I get out and use while this computer is being repaired. Oh and I cuss alot too..lol

hi, My internet connection is okay.The Hot Air Ballon is funny! May i ask you one problem? do you work at k-mart?K-mart is our client!We provide Easter product and Christmas product!So,i want to read your article,where is it?

i get to play more games than an hour, but get bored easily..then, able to assist Mom on what ever she do. go around and walk every where, but those won't last long because i would still be longing for mylot. i haven't really done anything that made me busy if there's a problem in the internet.

From time to time we have had Internet connection problems as well. Now that I have had Comcast again it is less problems here, but usually if I am having Internet problems this is when I either watch more movies, Write more like you have been doing, or play other Computer games as well. I am Glad to see that you have been able to post here now, and wishing you the best as well.

I generally do housework because I neglect it being on-line. I wasn't having problems yesterday but I did tackle a couple of chores and now I'm in the middle of the beginning of an early spring clean. I have the loungeroom turned upside down, curtains down for cleaning and repair in my room, my freezer is defrosted and the drawers are all over the kitchen waiting to be cleaned. I'm also in the middle of laundry.

LOL there are indeed some good points for not having the internet for a bit :) You really used your time well, I wonder if I had probably just lazy around for the duration hehe I had no internet for a bit over a week a few months back. I actually did a few other things and in the end didn't really miss it as much as I thought I would, with a few exceptions.

When there is no internet connection, I can finish my job just in time. I can create another discussion to be posted on mylot. I read e-books that are saved on my USB. and of course I can sleep because I don't have to take care of Mylot discussions.

I might do some gardening, or cross-stitch, or read a book, or just take a nap. I'm versatile that way.

Knock on wood but in the two and a half years I've had my own computer haven't had internet problems (I have verizon DSL). My you have been productive...bet you feel real great about that. Usually on days (or nights) that I find MyLot slow or just plain not in the mood to be stuck in from of the computer I give up and catch up on my cleaning--which reminds me...I could stand to do some laundry soon...LOL

I hate having internet problems. I usually just read or clean or watch TV. My boyfriend really hates having internet problems and he is always getting upset when we have trouble. I really like the provider we have now because we have very few problems now. It stays on almost all the time.

Hei.., You have great idea on this!. A useful time, i think. Me, I close my laptop and go some where else to break. But, This is not long and get normal in less than an hour. Some time i go to coffee shop with my friend and found interesting there. We are neighbor and member of myLot communities too..(We have same internet provider, so we have same problem at the same time...) we talk offline.
