Ever wonder why many people develop some routines that are so difficult to discontinue?
When I signed off the last time, I never imagined it would take this long (nearly two months) to abstain from surfing the Net. Oh, I did try several times but for reasons beyond my capabilities to resolve I had to stand down and kept my peace in the sidelines. .
That routine I was talking about made me ponder a lot of things. Frankly, some of my field work suffered because of my ‘addiction’ to surfing. I was consumed by the idea that everything would be fine in the long run.
I was mistaken.
As luck would have it (unfavorably favorable in some weird sense), there was something wrong in our side of the planet, or just in our particular spot, or whatever. The connection was so bad that most of the time even cellular communications failed.
I consider myself to be a little smart when faced with such a situation. I look for options, what I call Plan B, C, D, etc. And if those options would not work out, I go back to where I am most attached to: field work.
And, I could say, the lull in my internet activity provided me with more time to concentrate on work I deferred so many times. Overall, it was a productive experience.
My absence is not a big deal. I am sure most of you did not even notice I was MIA. That’s good. π
Slowly, I will reintegrate myself back to the system. I am somewhat rusty so you have to forgive most of my shortcomings.
Happy blogging guys and gals.

great post and important when it comes to routine!
Thank you. π
It is good to have routine.
Some are indeed better than others, routine-wise.
Welcome back π
Thank you for your continued support. π
You are welcome, I did wonder where you were, when you did disappear π
nice to have you once again, missed your posts.
;D
Thank you. π
I have more stories later.
I did notice and thought I had unfollowed you in error then I was afraid to check like Cubby who disappeared last year and we never knew what happened. What an adjustment for you those months. Turns out the past two months I’ve not kept up my reading .. Blessings
Her disappearance still puzzles me to this day.
If only the service providers kept their part of the deal, I could have reentered the scene much earlier. Even now the situation is still not good, though much better than a month ago at least.
You have been missed
I am grateful for your support. π
Great to have you back:). I did notice that you disappeared, but figured life got in the way, like it does….. xx
Thank you. π
You’re right about (real) life getting in the way. Sometime things happen we could not control.
Such is life sometimes! I am happy you are back, and productivity is also a good thing!!! π
Thank you. You’re too kind. I will try not to be absent for too long in the future. π
Nice to see you back. Disappearing is a good thing now and then.

The system kept me off the grid. I did not like it but I survived it. (laughs) Thank you for the continued support.
welcome back, dear Belsbror!
Thank you. π
I am still adjusting.

I am glad you are back! We need you and missed you!
Thank you for the continued support. I did miss blogging and of course all of you out there. I hope I won’t have more problems with the connection.
