Learning As We Go
Oct. 2, 2008
Computer Down

Posted in Family Life

Our monitor crashed last week, and though the computer was working, I couldn't see what it was doing.  (Whenever that's the case in my house, it's only a matter of time until someone gets hurt...)

I mentioned it in passing to my friend Lori, who said, "Oh, I've got an old one in my garage..."  So we hooked it up, and now we're working again.  Thank you, Lori! 

I'm very grateful for our community.  There are so many ways we can support each other-- meals in crisis, afternoon play dates, loaner computer parts, loaned books, flat tires fixed.  As St Francis of Assissi said, "Preach the gospel every day.  If necessary, use words."
