trouble 25 July 2009
i’m having a torrid time with my internet connection again – one laptop has ‘lost’ it’s software for the dongle thingy and refuses to work and the other is roaming on a uk one (and costing a FORTUNE) and can be a bit temperamental with it – hence no blog last evening as it was tantrum time from the latter. and it was quite a day for all such things yesterday – a man came to fix the landline in the house and told me he could only bring it TO the house not then connect the line with the various sockets for the phone IN the house – i’ll have to get an electrician to do that (another thing to put on list for the builder if he ever returns – so no, Joyce in Embra, they are not yet done, seeing as how you were asking recently) – indeed it was the builders who were the cause of the fault in the first place as they did something dicky to the system when they replaced the bathroom window. Than a man delivered my rowing machine and it’ll take me and a few others to get it out of the box, even, cos it’s heavy and there are a million bolts etc to be fitted (it’s pretty much flat pack) although i was assured in the shop that it’ll only take the briefest of anons to put up…hmmm…and yet another chap came with a modem for broadband/wifi and when i enquired about THAT i was told i’ll have to get someone from the alarm company to deal with it as we have a telephone monitored alarm and also that the exchange won’t be putting the data for all that up until the 30th of the month so it’s pointless doing anything before then….a strange and confusing day all round.
in the meantime the G is getting a bit doddery, I think, and is now managing to get poo on herself and is not that great at cleaning it off – this was ultimately why i let poor little Snubby go because she was poo encased and not enjoying herself at all – and impossible to help with cleaning…it’s sad and AWFUL to see it coming but i want the G to go at the height of her superpowers as you all know…AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL. any tips on how to help her groom herself or what to use when i try to would be MOST welcome. i really don’t want to let her go just yet (ever, actually, if truth be told)
