That Wonderful, Disrespectful Timer

Tweet

Okay, the timer on the computer is working great, except when I'm in the middle of a word and it suddenly goes green screen on me. However, have you ever thought about what you can do in two minutes? I found I can be very creative with those two minutes. I can empty the dishwasher, straighten up, grab a quick snack - fruit of course, even use the bathroom. Sometimes I use the timer to just let the computer go idle and get some in depth cleaning done, take a nap, and do whatever it takes to get this apartment in top shape for tomorrow. It can be very disrespectful in that it doesn't care what you're doing, if your time is up, it goes green screen no matter what you're doing. It did that during my Daily Bible Study this morning. I was almost finished and there I was, staring at the green screen. Had to wait two minutes to finish. The timer does give me the opportunity, though to get up, stretch and get the kinks out of my knees, and that's the most important thing. I'm not in any danger of it going off at the moment, as it just did it's thing. Now, I have the notifications finished. I'm going to ignore the computer completely and let it go idle while I finish with the vacuuming and then the apartment will be completely ready for tomorrow. Then I'm going to watch my Christmas movie and with plenty of time, get some writing done for the first time in four days. If I don't make it back here today, have a great rest of your day, and I will see you tomorrow early for the Daily Bible Study, but I won't be hanging around until after my guests leave as they are expected by 10 AM. How has your day been. Have you achieved any goals for today? Thanks for reading.
