My old lady computer worked over-time on June 15, 2017. She was working early this afternoon. When I returned back home to my apartment, I turned her on. I remember shutting her down before my home care worker, Susan, took me to see my PCP. A surprise was awaiting me, but not a pleasant one. It seems my computer was still busy shutting down. For several hours, it did not change. Finally, the pleasant computer's picture was on its screen. But my computer was off-line again. I went to the icon located in the bottom right hand corner. Eventually she turned back on. Poem hunter was the last poetry site I visited. Next I checked out face book. And then I decided to check out Pondrin. Posting my first short story on this site. I felt I just had to post my latest experience with my old lady computer who is in semi retirement. According to a mutual Geek friend, my laptop is living on borrowed time. She only has about one year's life in her. My next machine will probably be a Google's Chrome book. They can cost over $400.00 which is far too rich for my blood. I might have to purchase one on time, if it is possible. Maybe the price will be reduced by that time. I hope and pray when I turned off my computer for the night, she will not spend hours shutting down. I will have to wait until tomorrow to find out. This will probably be a continuing series.
