Frustration and Happy Anniversary

Frustration was trying to get into the Internet this morning.  We've been having problems staying connected or getting onto the Internet from almost the beginning of our stay here.  However, today was the final straw.

I called Comcast this morning and was on the telephone with them for OVER ONE HOUR.  They finally determined that we had a bad modem and arranged for us to pick up a new modem at Comcast's office in Summerville (not far from us).  We got to Comcast and our number was 18 and they were on number 8 when we arrived.  However, it was not tooooo long a wait and we got the new modem.  Took it home and plugged it in and Terry called to "register" it and was on the telephone for about a half hour before they got it to work.  They did give us a nice credit, so that made things a little better.

We then got a call from Naomi saying that she will NOT be visiting us as her other friend, whom she planned on visiting, broke her leg.  Also, she just moved into her new condominium and is dealing with the new construction issues that one always has.  She also just came back from Las Vegas and a bridge tourney, so a lot is going on.  She said it was snowing in Colorado.

We headed to Legacy Club to have dinner to celebrate Diane and Tom's 52nd wedding anniversary!

There was a little wait so we sat on the terrace for our drinks - so pleasant!  Friends also had a reservation for dinner and stopped and took a photo of us with our cocktails.

 

 

We came back to our house for coffee and dessert and more conversation.

 

I  called into the Township meeting, where they were complaining about the COLD weather.  They said if I paid for the tickets they would come down and join me!  It was a short meeting as everyone was eager to get back to their warm homes.

 

I got an email from our Temple that all activities for tomorrow are cancelled and that the building would be closed after 2:30 today because of the frigid temperatures!

 

For our friends in the frigid north - stay warm!
