Tell me if you blame me for feeling hexed by technology. This morning first thing I was going to use the phone. It's dead again. Probably was dead last night. I emailed Sandy to let her know, but here it is the weekend.
After breakfast (biscuits, scrambled eggs and sausage) and doing dishes, Betty and I were going to take the dogs on another ATV run. I have never done this before and don't know how or why it happened now, but I left the key partway on and the battery was dead. So took it out and Joe is recharging it for me. Next thing Joe had been watching Fox News and tried to change to ESPN to watch football and the TV went haywire. It's a long story, but I usually have to get the TV back when he pushes the wrong buttons, but this time it wouldn't go back. When he tried to watch the TV in the studio the same thing happened there. If you switch channels it goes to cable and snowy blank screen. He gave up and went out to paint all his wood trim on the buildings. And I gave up on it too. Could not get it to straighten out by trying everything I know, which is limited for sure.
So we walked with the dogs instead of 4-wheeling. We also spent some time showing Betty how to work with her photos in the Elements program, because she just got a beautiful new Canon digital camera. Had lunch, and then called Sheral on the cell phone and went over there for a little while to return one of her plates and visit with them. Had not seen them for some time, so was glad to catch up there. They are trying to repair a floor on one of their houses, and putting drain pipe and gravel next to the foundation where water has been coming in on the floor in the spring. Its a pretty big job.
After dinner I wrote the TV problem down and emailed to DishNetwork (no phone) trying to find out from their support how we might fix the TV. Frustrating day.

Been trying to call you and figured the phone was out again. Is your email working?
Dear Lynn and Betty, Thanks for the phone call. I was stirring pie filling, and Bud is entirely unable to stir anything without burning it. Did you get the TV fixed? Say HI to Joe for me. Love, Nancy
