Slept in, got up and showered and to the clinic for the protime test I was scheduled to have on this day. I had an appointment last Thursday with Dr. Kappenman to follow up the sinus problem but had called from Vegas to change that date to March 4. Also cleaned out the refrigerator which looked exactly as I'd left it. The dogs ate good. Was happy to have all that done so quickly.
Only thing was I insisted today was Saturday, and sure lost a day there someplace. As the day went on I got a little more energetic and got quite a bit accomplished, including unpacking and all the laundry. I'm missing my pair of black knit pants I took down there, and Debbie hasn't found them anywhere. It's a mystery what has happened to them. I left a small tote bag at Beverly's house so maybe they are in there. Debbie is sending it UPS. It was miscellaneous stuff and some medicine. I just scooped everything that was loose into it.
There was a raging ground blizzard moving the snow all day long and I was surprised how the drift across the back yard had grown while I was gone. It had snowed here one or two days about the middle of the week, but guess it was just another 3 inches or so. Not much more interesting to write about for today. Oh, yes, except that my internet wasn't working when I turned the computer on again. The wireless box has something wrong with it. Called Centurytel for help but Sandy was gone on vacation. A new girl who had only been there about 3 days called me back and couldn't help much. Sandy was out of town until Monday. She said to call their help number, but by then it was too late, and I won't be able to do anything now until Monday. I also was able to get the error messages off the TV screen. But Dish called us, and said our signal was not strong enough and said they would have a technician come on Monday and readjust the position of the dish to point it to the satellite again. Them calling us is a first.
Joe was thoroughly entranced by the new vacuum, and kept at it until he got it mostly figured out and vacuumed the living room. It's kind of complicated. The manual has only picture drawings with essentially no text. And I want a manual that says (A) do this and (B) next do this and (C) this attachment goes on here. Hopefully they may have something I can download off the internet that will be more informative. But I suppose we will figure it out as we go along. It really did make a big difference in getting the carpets cleaner and better looking. Perhaps it will help with the sinus "thing" too. It's supposed to have really good filters.
By night time tried the computer again and was able to down load and read the email but still not able to connect to the blog. The wireless box says it's on DSL, but the internet button isn't lit. I have to call an 800 number for that - and dreading it.
