The Miracle of Resurrection

 Okay, maybe not a proper miracle like Spring and childbirth, but it's good news anyway.

When my kindle "died" I tried the usual "hold the on button fr a longer time" and even did that a few times, but it just wouldn't wake up. 

I closed its cover and placed it gently in a bedside drawer for its "forever" sleep. 

Then I read Andrew's comment and thought "it can't hurt to try again." So I did. 

And it turned on! A lovely little yellow light appeared showing that it needed charging, so I plugged her in.

look at that sweet little glow

the index pages came back

showing that all 410 books were still there. This is all easy reading, murder mysteries, a few Private Detective type stories, nothing at all heavy or intellectual. 

Finally, the prettiest little green light I ever saw. I will speak to "no-one" soonish and see if  she will help me with transferring the books if I can't manage it myself. Just in case this happens again.

If Andrew hadn't said to try what I ahd already tried I probably wouldn't have to Gold Star to Andrew and thank you.
