Still awake and it is almost 6a. Had issues with my internet when I first went on. Is working okay now. I am so tired of having issues. Cable rep set up an appointment for between 1p and 5p. I wasn't sure if I would be awake or what with my crazy sleeping habits. So I will be awake awhile. I'm watching "Wrong Turn 2" Icky. But it is keepng me awake. It is about a inbred family of homicidal maniacs who are cannibals and hunting a group simulating a post-apocalyptic reality show out in the forest. Really makes me want to go out camping when my granddaughter invites me. Well, "Wrong Turn 3" was even worse. Just the one inbred guy though I think. The others youngsters went through the meat grinder in the last one. Oh, ya. It's very good kiddy fare, this one. NOT!! It is as if I am torturing myself. In about a hour and twenty minutes(8a.) I have to call the DMV and the vacuum parts place. I need to find out if I can get a title for my car or at least get tags for it. And our vacuum needs a belt and bags. It's a great Hoover I bought from Clay for $60 a few months ago. Guess I will see how great it will be for us. We haven't had much luck with vacs over the last few years. I'd rather sweep. Tried to do the tags online but couldn't so I called the DMV and a nice lady named Linda did it for me. Only cost me $85. I have got to get rid of this car! I wonder what the cable guy will do today to give a false sense of it actually working for long enough for me to feel the relief of thinking it is finally repaired. Slept a little from 11a. until 1p. or so. Cable guy redid the split that lead upstairs, did another power lead to the one split, did have to swap out the box. Oh well. It is working nicely now. Hope it lasts. Have to set everything up again. Have a nice evening. I am going to go rest.

by now my company would have had a sup out, that's too many repeats with no fixing

What's a 'sup out'? I am glad it works now. Sad I had to lose all my recordings in the other DVR.

I hope everything keeps working. Our cable guys are pretty decent about things though they are contracted out. Time warner (our cable and internet) contracts out for repairs and maintenance etc. It seems like everywhere you look people are robbing us of our money. $85.00 is a LOT of money.

I don't know if they do here or not. It is always a different guy with his Cable One blue shirt on. I think the tags used to be about $60 so the amount now isn't too bad.

I do too. That is our major entertainment. We don't go to the theaters or out at all.
