126 DAYS UNTIL SPRING!!! I spent almost 3 hours on the phone yesterday with Spectrum and Kinetic/Windstream trying to get our phone number switched over; and I'm still not done. Spectrum said that my phone AND internet had to be reactivated; and they were going to charge me a $72.99 activation fee and $65.00 technician fee PLUS I will be paying for phone and internet. That means I will be paying for 2 internet accounts. I still have to talk to Kinetic again today. In spite of the "activation" the landline is NOT working. I called the woman who was interested in our car. She balked at the price; but the car only has 24,000 miles on it. I'm still holding off on the washer and dryer. I think they're too deep to fit into our laundry room. Still have the mailbox to install; and now we need a new doorknob/lockset on the front door. Had a Telehealth doctor's appointment yesterday. Just routine. Breakfast - PB&J sandwich Lunch - Meals on Wheels - Salisbury steak, noodles, red cabbage, green beans Dessert/Snack - Lemon muffin Dinner - Buffalo chicken/Swiss sandwich What did you eat yesterday?

Just 24,000 is really good. That will last a person a good, long while. Yesterday, I had lemon pepper chicken and Triscuits.

Cars lose a lot of value here because of the age, even when the mileage is very low.

@LindaOHio All cars that are 8 years or older have almost no value here because they pollute. We got $ 2,000 for ours giving it back to buy a new one. It was 5 years old and only had 12,000 miles.

Gosh, for whatever reason, 126 days seems so manageable. Ah. I can't wait. For dinner I made some baked chicken legs with salad and stuffing on the side. Good eats.

@porwest Thursday looks like the possibility of a few flakes. Someone said there is supposed to be a big storm over Thanksgiving. I hope not.

Yay for the spring countdown!! I remember counting down wih you last year I can't believe that you're still having issues with your phone internet. Good grief (as Charlie Brown would say) Last night we had chicken, tater tots and baby carrots.

We were having trouble with my phone yesterday but have now switched providers. However, we had to go to a 'real' shop to get it sorted.

I am sorry to hear about your troubles with the phone. They also sound very expensive, I hope you get it sorted soon. Wish you luck, the phone companies usually are nice before you sign the contract and afterwards they don't give us the necessary attention.

Contact the Better Business Bureau and file a complaint on Windstream for not giving you what you contracted for. In your resolution request ask for cancelation and refund. I had a stuffed baked potato for lunch and a turkey sausage breakfast wrap from Jimmy Dean for dinner. OOOOH, that was good. And the usual apples, yogurt, fiber stuff.
