It Happened Again

About 3a. Sunday morning the internet quit again. Waited 4 hours until they opened for the agent to diagnostics. It was a no go so she said the quickest time for repair to come out would be Tuesday afternoon. Us without internet for nearly 60 hours sounded like Japanese torture to my grand son and I. She did say she'd try to excavated it for us. They were able to get here this morning. He said some how the outside equipment needed to be reset. Ugh!
It is so good to have it back working. I have been amazed to think of how dependent I am on the internet. I check my bank balance nearly everyday. I am Googling something all of the time. We order out at least once a week. I set alarms for myself all of the time since my memory is shot. It's never ending. I am hoping I can still cash out here this month but I have about 0.85 cents left to go.
Also, I realized how reliable our previous service was. We only had one outage in several years, and we have been with them for forever until they decided to keep upping the price.(three times in one month was too much) This one is the same price for the life of the service but having it stop twice in one month is rediculous.
Hopefully the reset will keep. Wish us luck.

That internet dependency is so real! Glad they fixed it faster than expected. Fingers crossed the reset holds and you can hit that cash-out goal.

I am lucky that I don't have outages. Knock on wood. I'm sorry your service is unreliable.
