Winter weather and technology don't mix well, it seems

  😞

Please don't laugh. But I have a theory. 

I'm not technologically savvy, probably because I was born about three decades too soon.

But with this incessant cold weather I'm beginning to think my desktop is just not having it. Suddenly it is taking forever to perform the simplest tasks, i.e. "save image as," posting an image, or previewing a blog post before publishing it.

Fingers crossed the computer will get used to this bitter cold and start cooperating. 

OK rant over. Time for lunch!
