What a crazy 36 hours.

I am finally on the internet. We had it Monday morning than all of a sudden we lost all of it Internet, cable and phone. Because of labor day company can't come out understandable called off today to deal with this. Came found an issue with a wire change that out. they have service up but are coming back some about a cuplink (?) going bad and switching it out. so while I wait for them to come back at 2 I went and got the flu shot. yes my arm is sore. I am also getting a headache.

I never realized just how much I rely on the internet...

Thursday a fourth guy, who apparently knows something about wires and how the corrode over the years, fixes it up and .....
