Picture an uphill climb where you lose your footing and slide backward.  This is the analogy for the past three weeks on my internet marketing trek.  Men typically swear, throw or break things when angry or frustrated {so, I’ve heard}.  Women cry.  I’ve sobbed for hours and swore as well, UNTIL I realized that I will never fall to the bottom…

I Have Learned Too Much…and there are many of you out there to help me regain my foothold.

Have you heard of the ‘BSOD’?  The ‘Blue Screen of Death’ shuts down your operating system.  This can be caused by a virus or a bad hard drive.  If it is caused by a virus, you may be able to get back up and running with an operating system fix or registry fix.  If this doesn’t work, you can do a total re-install of the operating system and drivers.  Hopefully, you have all of your files backed-up currently.

I had all of files backed-up except my email.  Unfortunately, some of my account IDs and password confirmations were there and nowhere else. MY BAD.

If your PC does not have the capacity for the work you are doing, you can wear out the hard drive and require component replacement.  {Not necessarily a new computer, Sister}

I was able to get online using a ‘live’ UBUNTU disc, but it didn’t have the capacity for videos, etc. and involved learning a little about a different operating system. 

I messed up my email on this site and could not get my log on info.  When I found my handwritten notes, I’d written it down in upper case instead of lower case {now I really feel STUPID}

“Yes, Virginia.  There is a Santa Claus”  He came in jeans [SO] with a new Vista desktop [even tho' he is a die-hard Linux user] AND a new hard drive and memory for the laptop!

So, even though I still have more software to install and my digital phone line is not compatible with my new 64bit machine, I’m saying..

“GET UP, TRINITY! GET  UP! - [The Matrix]

There are blogs to visit, links to create and traffic to generate and whether or not I missed the $1000 competition, there are fewer than 100 on Dean Holland and Garry Parke’s blog rolls, so I might still be in the top quarter of the 500 who signed up for Alex Jeffrey’s Coaching program.

I’ll be back,

Ivy Maria
