Jan 25 ~ 2011
Well I know you have all been wondering WHY I keep my blog "mommy broke it"... I've been on a good streak & haven't broken anything.... well today a new day!!
I found my iPod's today. I wanted some music.. my nano & my shuffle... both dead as could be. But I didn't think much of it... plugged them both in. The shuffle charged & put the purchased music into my laptop which didn't have any music (so that was exciting) but then I couldn't get it to play. And a shuffle doesn't have a screen so I had NO IDEA. But after I gave it to Espen, somehow it started playing. So at this moment it has music & plays.
The nano.... well I plugged it into the desktop and it did NOTHING. So I left it for awhile. A few hours later I came back to it & discovered Espen had unplugged the desktop. So I plugged it all back in & let it charge. I went back to it while Espen was napping & BAM the desktop was FROZEN. After 15 minutes of attempting to figure out what in the hell was the problem (the keyboard & mouse were frozen) I unplugged it all from the wall & walked away & went to my pottery studio.
After about an hour & a half in the studio I went back to the desktop. I unplugged all but the essential stuff & turned it back on. SuRpRiSe it worked again. So I fiddled around for a few & assured myself that it was fine & then plugged my Nano back in & went to get Espen from nap & play outside in the sunshine.
So just in the last 30 minutes I sat down at the desktop to discover that my Nano was charging & seemed to have some action but that the computer was jacked up again. So Doug unplugged the iPod & turned the computer back off & on AND BAM the computer works but my iPod, after having sat on the computer all day is still not holding a charge. So I will wait til the weekend when a wall charger will arrive. And if that doesn't work I will try to reset the darn little thing. Apple can't fool me... I can fix iPods. The thing is I wanted them TODAY.
Some days ago I mentioned a crazy desire to run a 1/2 marathon. And while I've been using my treadmill & stretching & thinking on it I have decided that THIS YEAR I am going to stick with a couple 5k's and my studio. I had the chance to run today & yesterday for 2+ hours & I decided to spend the time in my studio. It made me happy. So there you have it. Maybe when Espen is a little bigger when he can follow instructions or when I have extra minutes in the day! But for this year, I am satisfied to run on the treadmill & at minimum 2 5k's! Maybe someone in the house will do it with me (or my friend) or I can strap the baby into my fancy jog stroller & off he can go with me! But Doug or Anders should jump in & commit to one with me!! :)
So tomorrow I hope that I can keep my technology free from disruptions!!
