I’ll start this post out like this: no, I don’t really cry in the driveway. Okay, sometimes I do, but I just happen to be there. Secondly, this isn’t focused on my emotional sanity. And thirdly, we do have Viasat at our house. But it drains the bandwidth like crazy when you have a lot of website editing and photo uploading to do! As some know, the bandwidth isn’t cheap, either. So when I have a lot of work to do on any of my sites, I pack up the 8 year old laptop and trek to the point of LTE on my driveway. From there, I connect my computer to my phone’s mobile hotspot that broadcasts the LTE to my computer like an outdated McDonald’s. I still have a monthly hotspot limit, but the network is even faster than the home network. Plus the limit is larger than the internet’s is, too. I always listen to my trusty YouTube music playlist while working on the site; often EDM or some sort of thumping rock. When you have a good set of headphones and a really nice song list to listen to, you’ll find the web editing goes a lot smoother than without it. I usually take farm dog, Logan with me when I go at night (it’s easier to see the computer screen), but the last time I did, he decided to take down an opossum, so he’s been in trouble since. There was a time that I walked the 1.2 miles 5 days in a row, the latter two days I walked the trip twice. I’ll admit the actual blog posts I write on Microsoft Word at home off the hotspot so I can spend more time on the site itself when I’m up there. My computer generally gives me 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours of battery life, and if I go up later in the evening, I can catch my dad coming home from work and ride along with him instead of walking!
