I’ve been a tad slack, as you may have noticed, in keeping up with this blog. Why? Computer problems. I offer this not as an excuse, but as a reason. I come up with excuses when I don’t want to do something, reasons when something legitimate gets in my way. I love writing this blog!!!
My computer problems have to do with the new OS upgrade I had no choice but to have installed on my computer. Until the upgrade, everything was going well. BUT then, oh, the adjustments I had to make—no personal choice there. I’ll say no more but I’m still working around them.
Back to the idea of reasons v.v. excuses. I’m not even going to check Webster’s definitions. We know when we are making up an excuse because we know our reason would be rather pathetic. And yet, behind this computer reason, I know there lingers an excuse—I DO NOT want to take the time to learn the technology. The best I can come up with is to play the age card, which these days I find is more often a reason than an excuse.
