OVERCOMING TECHNICAL DIFFICULITES
Time has passed since my last Post, but I didn’t run out of things to say – I ran out of patience with technology. One year ago, I replaced my dead MacBook with a newborn Dell.

Home at Last It is the past now, but I try to remember everything; the good, the bad and the ordinary – because memories are the sum of our lives. We learn from hard times, supposedly.
