I’ve been having a number of technology issues lately. Mostly phone related. First, as you might recall, the GPS on my phone is wonky. Basically I have no idea where I am anymore. I can’t Strava our walks and share maps because Strava has no idea where I am either. So that’s one. Broken GPS.

Also the wifi on my phone is flakey. This started in Inverness. We factory reset the phone and restored the backup and it sometimes works. Last night, it lost the wifi, but eventually got it back after Husband did some stuff. Lost it again this morning, but it seems to be working again for the moment.

Bluetooth has also been having minor issues.

Basically my phone is nearly useless. I don’t even know if the phone part works because I hate the phone and am totally ok with that not working ever again.

You might have noticed that none of my recent posts have photos. That’s not because I’ve stopped taking photos or my camera is broken (so far, so good), but instead because I’ve been unable to upload photos to WordPress. Husband is currently trying to fix that problem. You’ll know it’s fixed when photos start to appear again.

For now, technology sucks.

rocky afternoon

I was a bit crabby today and not in a good mood. I’m basically blaming technology for my bad day, but also I had a sinus headache and probably didn’t get enough sleep thanks to the rooster that kindly woke me up too early.

At any rate, things started looking up during our walk this afternoon. We walked out to the sea, which we can see from our bedroom window. The coastline here is big granite boulders. The tide was way out, so we explored the tide pools around the big rocks. Besides falling, my main goal was to avoid crushing any snails. I think I did ok.

We also saw tons of wildflowers and more artichokes. I restrained myself again today. We went to a local bakery and got baguettes as well as the local wine shop for, yep, wine. After a bad start, I think playing on the rocks improved my mood quite a bit. Probably the advil also helped. Also Husband fixed the photo upload issue on WordPress, so photos are back! YEAH! Here are some wildflowers for your enjoyment…
