Woo-Hoo!

I'm connected! I have joined the ranks of millions of others who can post a blog from their kitchen, from their living room, from the bedrooms.....AND I have been turbo-boosted! We have DSL Wireless!

No big deal you say? Well, let me just tell you! We have waited YEARS for our phone numbers to qualify for DSL connection. We live in a wonderful western suburb of Minneapolis; however, although we are perfectly located nearby the city but out in the country....we could not get DSL. Technologically, we live in a hole! That is, until today! After persistently researching and relentless phone calls--Qwest arrived at my doorstep this morning at 8:00 a.m. and by 10:30 a.m. I was jumping for joy as the Technician explained my new connection to me.

Apparently, we will now be able to have multi-user computer access, be able to network our computer files, AND be able to surf the web without falling to sleep while waiting for each page to pop up! Amazing! The high speed connection is what you all told me it would be, but the wireless feature is worth shouting about! Although--I may miss the solitude of my den, as I am now sitting at my center island in the kitchen and have a grumbling sensation of the laundry calling out to me! Somehow, when I'm in my den, the noise of what needs to be done is muted!

The laundry can wait! I'm celebrating my connection! And did you know that I now can print from my laptop and it will wireless-ly appear in my printer downstairs!?!?! How did I ever survive without this advanced technology? O.K. it's not so advanced to many of you--but as far I'm concerned--this day ROCKS!!! Photos upload in nano-seconds, web pages appear in the blink of an eye, and I am sitting with my lap top without the entanglement of a phone cord! It's a bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy, Fun- fun- fun- fun- fun-kinda day!
