Ahhh, today was a good one for me. Not so much for my youngest son, Eric.
I've had telephone and internet problems for 5 straight days now. I kept calling to get it repaired, they tell me it's fixed, and it wasn't. I'd get phone/internet for an hour or so, then everything would go dead for hours, then another good hour, then everything dead again.
So while I was at my CPR re-cert class this morning (that's done for another 2 years....yay!) the phone company found the problem. I guess someone at the other end of the road, shot bird shot into part of the line. It's been replaced and I was promised everything would actually work correctly from now on.
My son was on his way over to help me with yard work when he ran out of gas. His jeep doesn't have a working gas gauge, but since this isn't the first time this has happened, you'd think he'd figure something out, but I guess not. Anyway, I went to get him and after putting gas in his tank, it still wouldn't start. We tried jumping it and nothing, so we had it towed as he believes it is the starter as that has been acting up.
But the GOOD news of the day, as we were trading places in the car so he could drive, we did so by the recycle bins. And of course, I peeked in and saw that the newspaper was within my reach, so I went dumpster diving! lmao
My chicken son wouldn't help me and was clearly embarrassed, but whatever! When you raise litters of puppies, you learn to get newspaper by any means possible! Definitely a good day! :smiley_coolpeace:
