> When my son (who just turned 23) was 2 and my oldest daughter was a newborn, I remember one day watching a daytime television show called The Home Show. On the show, they had a guest that was showing a computer that they claimed would soon be in every home. They showed how the floppy disks could hold the whole encyclopedia. They also showed how you could access things like clips of the moon landing.

> Now, we have 3 laptops, a desktop, 2 iPhones, 2 Blackberries, an iPod touch, a wifi enabled plasma tv, and the list goes on. I can't imagine life without them.

Years ago, I wrote a book by the same title. It has not yet been published. I had a time in my life when I felt so low, that I decided, consciously, to give up. The problem was that I didn't know how. How To Give Up is a tongue in cheek title. I don't have a clue how to give up now, any more than I did then. I do have some tricks to getting through that may help someone else.The turtle reference refers to an incident or series of incidents that contributed to the person I am today.

Spinning out of control
Life seems to be moving so fast these days that I can't tell it I'm coming or going! I've just been able to recover my account for this blog and hopefully will begin again.
