*insert made face here*

My internet service has been down for two days.
no answer.
no fix.

I finally got through to someone last night after being on the phone for....two hours!!

After fiddling for an hour ...nothing. She says, " Turn off your router and I will call you back in ten minutes to see if that worked."

no call.

Somehow it started working this morning. But, now my wireless router won't work. So, I'm squished back here plugged directly into my modem.......

.....now writing a day later.....

As I was typing the beginning on this post, a virus pops up on my computer!! Totally crashing it. 
Wow, what an eventful week. My phone company provider, being absolutely swamped with calls due to the network outage, has kept the phone next to my ear for hours upon hours on hold, then even more hours upon days with tech support. I think now, after 4 days of being on hold, on the phone with numerous disgruntled-overworked-underpaid operators , being disconnected "accidentally" over and over. I think....think.....  my computer is back, up and running. 

phew. 
Now I have to go answer hate mail from people who think that I've been ignoring them for a week....sigh....
and try to access all of my sites that no longer have saved passwords. Like I can remember my passwords ! 

I'm done venting, if you are still here...thank you! 

Better late than never? Here's WhateverWendesday and I hope to have everything else running smoothly next week!

  3. Sorry for your troubles. Internet issues are the worst. I just try to keep these 2 rules in mind.
    Rule #1, Don't sweat the small stuff. Rule #2, It's all small stuff. :)
