Life Off-Line
Life Off-Line
When my family’s Internet provider had some mechanical problems that interrupted our service for a week, my parents, my sister, and I thought we would never make it, Getting through long evenings without streaming movies, emails, twitter updates, and internet searches seemed impossible, We soon realized, though, that living off-line for a while was a stroke of good fortune.

Second, we did chores that had been hanging over our heads for too long, there were many jobs around the house that had needed attention for some time. The grass needed to be cut and the roof needed to be clean, we worked a lot and we painted the garden wall and planted flowers.
We had a chance to do some long-postponed shopping. We went to the market and bought some essential things for our home,
