Our weekend was a full one. Part frustrating and part wonderful.
The frustrating part was about our TV. Or should I say our satellite coverage?
On June 1st our provider could no longer provide us with the networks from Los Angeles and New York. The Congress in all their wisdom decided that people outside of those viewing areas had no rights to the coverage. Even though we were paying for it and had this service for over 20 years!
Have I mentioned that I think we need term limits in both the Congress and Senate? These jokers make laws with no input from all of us.
I digress.
I had heard from a neighbor that he had the local stations (networks) out of Boston, Massachusetts from our same satellite provider. So on Saturday, I got all our information and called the Provider.
The first woman I reached kept telling me it couldn’t be done. She argued with me, and after a half an hour, I asked to speak to her Supervisor!
She said she didn’t have one, but would put me through to programming.
I will just tell you that this is where I should have landed all along. This nice young woman, had us all signed up for the Boston package and reduced our fee for the next 24 months for everything we’ve been through. Yay!
Problem solved!
Then on Sunday, I was walking around in my favorite Merrell Clogs, which I use as slippers, and the sole came off one of them! These lasted just about 4 years. Ugh.
Now I am online to find a cheap in price, but comfortable Merrell Clogs to replace these as my slippers.
The week ahead finds me meeting up (and social distancing) with a few of my dearest WW friends. We have not seen each other since March 11th. I’m so happy about this.
I hope you all have a great week ahead. I hope this finds you getting your life back to what might be termed as normal.
Isn’t it always the way? You need to speak to the right person at utility companies. What a strange thing for your government to do!
Glad you got that all worked out
