Waiting

The period of waiting is not a very comfortable experience. It's a time that's full of questions, uneasiness, fear and all the rest of the emotions. But if we continually cling unto God during this period, it's also a time of knowing God and His ways more and more. It's a time of changing us and humbling us, because it's at this point that apart from Him we can do nothing.

Waiting can be a beautiful experience too, because we know that after the wait, we are a new person.. after the wait, we see the fulfillment of God's beautiful plan in our lives....

Thus, I will continually wait.... wait on God and His plans for our lives..

Lost Files

I almost panicked the other day. I thought I lost all my files inside my external hard drive. Actually, it was my bad since I left my son to play on Starfall.com on his own while I was working in the kitchen. I think he got bored with the game that he decided to just randomly press all the keys and play like a 'computer wizard'. And when I tried to open the files in my external hard drive, it just went blank! I tried and retried a few times and the results were the same. Oh, I have a lot of files in my hard drive, all the photos, my ebooks, homeschool ebooks, videos and etc. These files were like collected and compiled for a couple of years and I couldn't retrieve them anywhere else. And finally, I decided to restart the laptop and plug the hard drive in and out. And whew! The files are up and running.

This experience led me to search on google on how to back up your computer . I guess I will have to learn how to do this so that I won't have to worry again if something happens to my computer or my external hard drive.

Car Over Heat

A few weeks ago, our car got overheated. We didn't notice the temperature gauge at all but we were just so surprised that a green liquid was splattering out of the car on our way to the Water Department (to pay our water bill). Hubby had to stop the car and open the hood. When he did it boiling green water were getting splattered everywhere like a hot fountain!! Thank God that Hubby's reflexes was quick and he immediately backed out. The hot water only scalded his left hand. Oh, I can't imagine if it could have hit his eyes or his face. Anyways, he tinkered a bit after that and put water on it. I'm not sure what was wrong with the car at that time but our car is still running well now except for it's regular tinkering sounds and jerking here and there, there's no need to replace anything like Airtex electric fuel pump .. But still, we're praying that we can replace our car into a newer one. :)
