I was on a roll yesterday doing revisions to my last novel. I finished yet another round of revisions to chapters 1 and 2. I attempted to print them - I have old eyes that work better on paper than on the monitor. I seem to skip over errors on the screen that I would otherwise see if they were on paper.
I attempted to print - no connection. I rebooted the printer. Nope. Again. No. I rebooted my computer. Printer again. Time was up for writing. Husband came home for lunch and offered to fix it. It really was too late. Time was up. I gave up for the day. Later in the evening, he asked me if it printed. I stared at him and walked away.
Let me say this - although my computer nerd skills have decayed with full time mommyhood, I should be able to get the printer to reconnect. We have a network in our house, our own email server, an my own web server. We have two wireless access points. (Don't ask.) I may have lost my ability to write a line of code, but I understand the technical aspects of how all of these devices are connected.
But it's still not working. And it's dental surgery day for my daughter. So today I will keep things on pause.
Wishing your daughter a speedy recovery.
ReplyDeleteI like to print out my revisions, too. Same reason. I catch things that I otherwise wouldn't. Good luck getting the printer to behave.
Ugh, I'm sorry your printer isn't working!
ReplyDeleteAnd I hope your daughter recovers quickly from the dental surgery!
Good luck with the printer issue and I pray that your daughter recovers quickly.
ReplyDeleteThanks! You all are so sweet. We had a rough start after the surgery, but she's doing really well now.
ReplyDeletePrinter's still dead. I think I'll be fetching things for my daughter today, so no time to print anyway. My two year old has his doctor kit ready.
