As much as I hate having to stay at home all morning when a technician is working in the house, it actually does me a lot of good. Yesterday was one such morning. In two hours, I:
- finished and folded three loads of laundry
- prepared (well, finished preparing) the next five weeks of materials for Children?s Church
- cleaned the powder room
- cut the invitations for our holiday boutique (which is only three weeks away ? what?!)
- washed the dishes
Lots of stuff! Oh, and played two hands of something which resembled War with my girl. Card games with pre-schoolers are highly improvisational, don?t ya know. While I did all that, the nice gentleman from ATT hooked our home up with UVerse, thus bringing us up to speed with the rest of the neighborhood. Yes, we now have a few ? very few, according to the disappointed man of the house ? new channels, but that is not the best part.
Want to see the best part?
That hot mess is no longer littering my kitchen!!! OH HAPPY DAY! And that is after I?d already removed the phone from the windowsill. Yes, there was previously a phone sitting on my windowsill. With a modem. And a power strip. Care to take a guess how many times I tripped over that nest of cords, and toppled the whole blasted arrangement? Or opened one of the drawers under the oven and accidentally unplugged the power strip? So many times, but no more, my friends! No more.
I can?t tell you how happy this one little change has made me.
Even better? With the new and improved lines, we can now use the phone and the internet at the same time. Sweet freedom! So long, Pioneer House ? we?re taking this place into the future!
Or ten years ago. Whatever ? we?re forging ahead!
