Can you see the Public Works guys in orange shirts putting up Christmas decorations on the balcony of the Lakeview Center?
Water is still being discharged, keeping the lake level low so construction can continue on the incoming stream.
My Thanksgiving plans went down the tubes with an internet which was drowned, swamped or otherwise disabled by 1.) rain on the day prior, or 2.) overload of the servers on the holiday. I tried rebooting the modem and router several times with instructions from technical advisors. Still couldn't download pictures, nor Facebook, which is a large program by itself. My phone finally was able to get the weather program to work. But I will have some kind of service technician come on Mon. Nov. 30, or maybe sooner according to some waiting line. I don't think I can work on the newsletter that should go out on Dec. 1. But we shall see.
I am not sure how you managed to post this with your internet not working, but you did. I hope the internet and the rest of the weekend go well.
ReplyDeleteYay on getting posted to the world today! By last night I was able to do a few things...but couldn't stream my Netflix show (The Crown) which was alright. Our limited internet service has been a bother for a while, and then even my TV service on the same cable had several channels changed, which is not a cable problem of course. Just an entertainment one. Oh my, it showed me how much I depend upon that internet! I'm feeling very grateful to have received the comments on my blogs! And today I can make replies to them too!
Delete...technology can be a problem.
ReplyDeleteI'm reminded of how people sit around a table, or in the living room, with their various screens to do whatever they wish on, rather than talking with each other. I am so grateful when my internet is chugging along well, and hope the holiday problem (or wet cables) is solvable.
DeleteI hope things work out with your internet connection.
ReplyDeleteThanks Robin...I talked to a customer service rep today and changed my plan. She told me the increase from 10 channels to 150 would cost about $20 more. But the plan I was already buying from the only cable company in the area, was giving me the ability to stream, which I never wanted. So the new plan actually costs a few dollars less. I'm so happy.
DeleteI live alone so the internet is a lifeline for me. Hope yours is fixed soon. Kids do love to play and it's so important for them to be outside doing so!
ReplyDeleteThe cable company texted me that my problem was solved today. So I cancelled my appointment for Monday. We shall see when it rains again!
DeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteI am glad the playground is already popular. The lake views will be pretty when they finish and take down the orange fencing. Sorry your internet connection went wacko. Take care, have a happy day. Have a great weekend ahead.
Yes, I'm really tired of the ongoing construction. I miss seeing ducks and geese this time of year!
DeleteThat rubber surface is used on at least one playground here, and no doubt more.
ReplyDeleteMe too, I dare say more playgrounds have that surface these days.
DeleteI hate problems with internet connections. We had one tonight and it took about 3 hours before we could get back online.
ReplyDeleteIsn't life so dull without the internet? I started reading a real book today. But then I contracted for more TV stations to watch, and maybe one or two will actually be enjoyable.
