Monday Morning Madness…

Well, I am not mad, actually I am happy to see another day.  What I don’t like is that our winter weather watch has turned into a winter weather warning for 3 – 7 inches of freezing rain and snow.  This nice mess is to begin tonight and last until Wednesday.  This means another emergency run to the store this morning and to Wal*Mart.  The temp right now is 26 degrees and cloudy.

I started watching the fashion parade at the Oscars last night when the cable went out.  What I didn’t realize was that the telephone and internet had already been out for about 3 hours.  My sister had been trying to reach me for a couple of hours and she even called my daughter.  So today I am not bragging on ITV-3.  I don’t know what the problem was. My phone service would go out a lot at Comcast in addition to a bunch of other stuff so I still think I have the better of the two now.

I think my laundry is ready to put in the dryer so I will catch you all later.

Stay safe and be happy!!

Whew, all done…

The guys came yesterday morning around 10:30 and said they were finished with a job and could they get started early.  In my best Mae West imitation, I said come on in boys!

Seriously, these were two of the nicest young men.  They were extremely courteous.  I enjoyed talking to them as they were working and they fixed everything just as I requested.  I now have a corded phone in addition to my cordless ones.  Some information is not really safe to give out over a cordless phone.

 

Jonathan and Zach were very professional.  Note the booties on Jonathan’s feet.  Those booties were put on each time they came in the house and taken off when they went outdoors.  They were very careful to clean up as they went along.  This is a local company out of Peoria.  Now if I want customer service it will be a local call and hopefully they will all be able to speak English.  PLUS, and this is a biggie for me, service calls are free unless they are coming to install something new in your home.  Comcast charged for every time they put a foot in your door.  I am still cringing from the poor customer service I got from Comcast last week.

I have two boxes of stuff to return to Comcast this morning and I will be leaving soon to do that.  I hope you all have a great day.  Stay safe and be happy!!
