I will set the trash out tonight, and mine will be the most aromatic on the block! I looked at the many spices and flavorings I have accummulated since I've been in this house, and started emptying the bottles of those I know are old or that I'll never use again. With each addition the aroma got better and better, and my kitchen smells like a spice shop!
The TV service I now get is terrible - the package of programs, not the picture. Supposedly it's the family package which means that I get all the stupid old sitcoms, baby einstein programming (why would you sit your infant in front of a television in hopes he will absorb some smartness?), and all the many shopping and selling channels. I get things like "Fat guys in the Alaskan woods", "How it's made", and "Hillbilly hand fishin' ",
along with all the Spanish language programming. To be fair, I told them I like to watch the science and history channels, and I can't figure out if fat guys falls into the category of science or history. Thankfully I get the public and local channels, which gives me a better look at the news than all those 24 hr news services.
The thermometer is climbing again and we'll soon have several days of triple digit heat. I don't know how I can deal with it. Those guys in the Alaska woods are no doubt staying comfortable!
- Not A Good Start To The Morning
I looked at my email 1st thing this morning to find a notice from AT&T of my latest bill, which is well over double what I've been paying for TV and internet. I called them to cancel the entire package. I can do without TV if I have...
- Following Up
I have racked up a lot of things I need to follow up on, make phone calls or write emails on, etc. Today I really made a dent in my list, and I feel positively virtuous about it! Are there readers out there who do the same thing...
- Waiting
The AT&T installer was scheduled to be here between 11 and 1:00, and it's now 1pm. I just got a call from him saying he'd be here in about 20 minutes. But I didn't have anything else to do today, did I. So now he has been here...
- Minimalist Living
I guess that is what it would seem to most people. I no longer have tv service, and something went wrong with the dishwasher a week or so ago, so I'm washing dishes by hand. I still miss the tv, but I must say I'm enjoying washing dishes...
- Who Can Figure?
I have about one week left until my cable tv is cancelled, and lo and behold I again have the Science Channel. DirecTV removed it from my service, then told me it was in another package and I would have to pay additional to get it. So I get...
