Is
it possible that the elements could be so cold that the signal for internet is
lost? The outside has gotten below
freezing between 1:00 and 5:00. Jenna,
who has gotten up as early as three (strange child) was trying to sign up on the
internet yesterday and was frustrated with it not coming up. If she couldn’t
get on her devise (which she would seriously give up for non-electronic
entertainment) I wasn’t even going to bother trying mine. Mine has been having problems ever since
Roland received a new updated computer from his work. It must be sucking up more signal or something. That isn’t fair.
As
Roland was toying with Jenna’s device, I got up and checked the status on the
box. One light was solid green, one
light was blinking green. One light was
blinking orange. The other two were
out. I mentioned that it was probably
the internet – and the last time we had encountered that problem it was not so
much a household thing – but all of Myrtle Creek had been affected (it must be really
great for people living in the sticks).
The
TV had been turned to the news. It would
be cold all day in Eugene, so bundle up.
Eugene’s whether doesn’t always mirror Myrtle Creek. I didn’t figure it would do a lot of good to
ask Echo as Alexa is on the same power as the internet – yet I knew I wouldn’t
be able to pull the forecast upon the internet.
Either Jenna or Roland asked, “Alexa, are you working”
The
red glow came on and she apologized that she was not working but to try again
later. Jenna than made a comment about
the friendly blue that is received when Alexa (or Echo) is working but referred to the red color as the circle of death.
