This graph describes about how my day felt. We had some rough technical issues. Heidi reassures me that they were not as bad as I feel they were. Still, we did not succeed at being invisible as was my goal. We worked so hard testing and fixing any known issues and still we had new ones today. Gratefully we had a solid team so we were able to handle the challenges as quickly as we did. Another plus of the issues is that we are now seriously considering better options. Even General Conference had some glitches when we watched at our house. The technology just isn't as stable as older tech like microwave or satellite. Anyhow, it was a bit of a rollercoaster but I have faith that Heavenly Father has a plan.
Something fun that happened this weekend was that we figured out how to use the Sony DVMC DA1 to record our VHS and DVDs so we can back them up. It's not perfect. Sometimes the recording will stop part way through. Still, it is the best we've had since the G5 went down. With little ones who can get into DVDs and scratch them up and VHS players that can eat tapes it's good to have a backup.
Great illustration of the agony and ecstasy of technology
