stuck in recovery

I've been having quite a time with Mac mini 2012. It finally jusst went dark, except for a flashing question mark. I had given up and had scheduled a shop visit, but I tried starting in up and durn if the thing didn't start up -- to a spinning globe. Selected router and it opened in recovery mode -- disk utility etc. But none of them would respond to my mouse clicks and the mouse won't leave the box. Any ideas as to what I should do? Scared to shut her down.

Hey den.thed, Sorry for taking so long to get back to you. Thank you very much for your response. I suppose I so late because I somehow got out of that fix. I don't remember how, but I'll keep your solution in hand so the next time that happens I'll know what to do. Thank you very much.
