Ready to Keep Reading and No Internet

In the house I am living the Internet payment comes with my rent. The Internet connection is downstairs in my friends’ apartment. So anytime anything goes wrong I know to get in touch with them. Unfortunately, the company that provides our Internet does things without warning. So last night there I was going through my notifications and responding and suddenly no connection. So today I am trying again. The company figures that they cause fewer problems when then work on things at night but hey. It was only about 10 PM and many times I keep working till the morning hours. So I had to give up and I put in a DVD and watched a movie instead. Hopefully, they did what they had to do and won’t cause me distress again. It gets so confusing when you want to do something and bam – no connection. It is all right now but I had download a new SKYPE that one of the people I write for requested and after the Internet interruption I cannot get back the connection. Sometimes I feel it is just not worth it now if only I could win some money and just take off across the U.S. Oh, yes and today I got a message when I tried SKYPE to check with my Microsoft account, I did and they told me they had to check my security or some such stuff and would get back to me in March. I did manage to give them my present cell phone number but there was no way I could change the email which is a Latvian email I have not had for over 10 years SIGH I sure hope they know how to get in touch with me.

Tech problems are the worst thing, next to auto problems!

@marguicha the company says they fixed the problem from the outside whatever that means I am glad to be back online. I thought they would have to come here to look at the connections.

@RasmaSandra Sometimes they have answered that to me. It freaks me. I feel that they can look at all my intimacy.

It's more pain in the neck when you can't reach their customer service to report the outage because their line is also down.

That is something I have been correcting--I am reading more and going on the Internet less!

@GreatMartin well, I can commune with the ducks at the river I believe someone told me there is Donald and all three of his nephews so I guess I will wander over to take a look this weekend.

And I am making money with my writing on the net so for now, I have to have the connection @GreatMartin maybe if I could get a laptop and lay back in a boat and float down a lazy river that would be the best of both worlds. The Halifax River is right next to me.

You got the message, you didn't contact Microsoft. That message was a scam especially with them saying they will make you wait until March. That's not the way Microsoft works. If you're having trouble with your Internet, you contact the company and let them know.

I will get in touch with Microsoft and see what is happening now that the Internet is working again @just4him

I was lucky after two days to get back online without missing any new writing orders now that would have really made me flip @RebeccasFarm

That’s so frustrating. I love to read, so it wouldn’t bother me too much.

Internet issues are frustrating as hell for me. There are so many things I do via the Internet, when it is causing problems, I am fit to be tied,

try changing your MSFT password and then logging into Skype again.

I hate it when we have internet problems. Our cable box often decides to update at the most inopportune time. When it happens, we can't do anything. No tv, nothing.

That would be very annoying. When I can't get on the web, I usually write up some posts for myLot ready for when I have a connection again. But I know that's not a viable option if you're relying on the web for work.

I hate it when the internet goes out. Hopefully, everything will turn out OK with your account.

Ours is terrible. Our internet connection or signal is very weak. We have our own Internet connection. Our ISP is Globe. It's unreliable.
