Please don't take my good stuff away?

Here I am at work again. It’s been five long days since I lost my internet connection at home. It was a real gift to see it return for about four hours since then and I was thrilled to post on Sunday!

Here's the story:

Time Warner insists that my network adapter is malfunctioning and sometimes it’s missing. (All of this started after a violent storm late June.) After a three-hour diagnostic session with Dell on Friday night and a brief session with them on Sunday night, I finally got fed up and five minutes into our conversation I said,

“Listen. Don’t make me go through another three-hour test again. I’ve done this several times before. Put me in touch with your supervisor – NOW, because I want a technician at my house to fix this problem.”

And, that’s what I’m getting this week (so they say…)! He’ll replace the network card on the motherboard and see what happens. During all of these diagnostic sessions I took copious notes so I’ll be supervising the technician that makes my house call!

At one point on Friday evening, I had TW on one ear and Dell on the other. Is that crazy? How much is too much?

Dammit. When I like something, I really like it. Losing my internet connection is like losing an old friend.

Since I’m not spending my evenings posting and visiting other blogs, I found some real mind blowing and exciting things to do instead! Make sure you are sitting down before you read on.

Bought a new WBU thistle feeder and cleaned the others.

Emptied my wallet of trash and two pounds of coins.

Replaced burned out light bulbs around the house.

Finally made an appointment for an eye exam.

Cleaned the bottom drawer of the frig that collects funky stuff.

Tossed out hosiery with runs and holes and old socks. Did the same with old underwear.

Took some good photos.

Put some posts on a slow simmer.

Went to bed at a decent hour.



I’m trying to smile often while I’m missing y’all.
