Bummer of a Day

I've been feeling down since I got my results from my CT yesterday.  When working in those conditions I always said "oh well we all got to die from something" never thinking that possibly the environment I was working in might be the reason.  I can only pray that nothing else will develop and the nodules are nothing to worry about.  Enough about that, I give it to God.
This morning I planned to get some items posted on Etsy.  I kept having trouble with the internet and thought it was the wireless, went to the main computer and no luck.  I am stubborn and tried everything I could think of to fix the problem with no luck.  Called Gina and had her look up my cable company number so I could call for tech help.  Talked to someone, thought it was fixed.  Had to call again and in the end it was the wireless router that was causing the problem.  Called them and after about 20 minutes of help they then informed me that my router was not under warranty and to proceed with help I needed to pay $29.95 for a 6 month extended warranty support with no guarantee that the problem could be fixed.  My router was over 5 years old and have been having problems for a while now.  I decided a new router was the fix and so when Ron got home we went into town to Staples and picked one up.  Installed it my self and up and running in less than 15 minutes.
I can't believe I lived with out a computer for over 3/4 of my life and now when it's down I am lost.  I depend on it for everything.  I will admit I am addicted to the computer, I guess it could be worse and be addicted to something else.
I accomplished nothing today and feel it was a waste of a day.
