Well, our internet, Wifi, fiber optic phone 'stuff' has been going out intermittently the past few days.
Last night everything stopped working at 4pm ish and came back some time in the middle of the night.
I called their Help line with my cell phone last night and the nice gent on the other end had me test the power strip, plug and unplug things which were nearly impossible to unplug [either it was my poor arthritic fingers that couldn't grasp correctly or something!]. I finally got so frustrated after my cell phone beeped and said NO cell reception where I was at...
The tech called back and we tried it again. Nothing was working on his end either. He suggested a 'ticket' to send out a tech to deal with it. I said that was what I would prefer.
Our wifi and the battery pack is all owned by our phone company and their techs have always been great. They replaced it 7 years ago and I suppose the machinery is old? The nice thing is, they have to solve the issues.
We spent Friday evening with no TV. I read a book, hubby fidgeted. I made him sit on the porch with me so we could watch birds and just enjoy the weather.
Ariel had left to go home. We had a really great time together. Instead of hiking, we went to indoor flea markets that are prevelant in our area. We had fun looking at some of the totally weird stuff that people brought in to sell.
We've had two very hot days with high winds and this afternoon we will change over to rain and thunderstorms and Sunday evening we have a Winter Storm Watch with 4 to 7 inches of snow to dump on us.
If I don't visit your blog or reply to comments or any emails I get. Then our system went down again and we are Seriously Unplugged.
For now though, I am going out to enjoy the sunshine and mild morning before Mother Nature changes her mind again!
Funny photo of Charlie...he likes to carry his own leash when we go on a walk...
Peacefulness at Tainter Hollow:
Spidey web in the early morning light:
Maple Catkins. Did you know they had flowers?
Have a great day!
Pictures of the Ugly Chair we found at one of the Flea Markets later! Can't wait for a new paint project!
