The Bargain Hound

My computer power supply went ca-put about two weeks ago.  Thankfully, it was an inexpensive repair.  But in these two weeks I have learned something, I am computer dependent.  I have had to remember how I did things before a computer was readily available.

No computer ever ‘dies’ at a convenient time. However, I am in the middle of planning my wedding.  Talk about an inconvenient time.  Add to that my mother is getting ready to change health insurance since she is turning 65 next month.  I needed my computer to research health insurance options for her.  Never mind that she has a gazillion booklets from every health insurance medicare option provider in the country.

The booklets were information overload.  And the exact reason I wanted to do my research via the internet.  When I type a phrase into a search engine, I can usually decipher the spam links from the legitimate links.  And after going to a site quickly decipher needed information from irrelevant.

And my blog has suffered.  It is very hard to post a blog it you don’t have a computer.  So the Bargain Hound has been out of touch for a few weeks.  But I am back to happy hunting now.
