I lied

I lied. Our problems with SBC aren't over yet. More to come one that...

Our problem appears to be sporadic at best, which for DSL isn't suppose to happen because you don't share your bandwidth like you do with cable. But apparently something is wrong. They are coming out to test the line on Friday, hopefully.

I'll try to post when I can. Until then...

Check out my Mom's blog KazooHoosier. There's a link on the right.

Contemplating the Past

So I have a new job. I've been working there for 3 weeks now. So far, so good. Today I started on the monsterous task of organizing my tax season work load. You see, we do 3000+ tax returns. That's a lot.

As I'm inputting some data I came across a familiar name. I will use the his made up nickname, BCR. Good ole BCR.

I started to panic when I saw his name on this list. Could it be? I hope not, but it could be. This is one person I really hope I'd never see again.

I had to do a little investigating about this. I opened up the tax return to look at the birthdate. Yahoooo! Not BCR! Some old man. Yippeee.

It still amazes me that seeing his name sent me into a bit a panic. He isn't someone I want to see. Our relationship (if you can call it that) was anything but fun. We yelled, we fought, we screamed. We were in college and we were young. He had a temper and a "wandering eyes."...

Funny how after all these years, little things like this can cause a response you'd never expect?

I'm back!

After a week of my husband trying to figure out what was wrong with our internet, we seem to be back up and running. I think my husband ended up replacing our dsl modem, but I'm not really sure. I'm just glad to be back at full force.

I tried to write a couple of crafty posts last week but the darn thing kept timing out. It's frustrating when you think you have a post just how you like it and your computer/internet doesn't cooperate with you.

Needless to say, nothing too exciting happening over here. My life hasn't changed much.

We are experiencing fall in full affect now. I love it. The colors are awesome. I'm hoping to get some pics this coming weekend because we are just about at "peak color" according to the news report. Peak color. How awesome. Unfortunately after "peak color" we get the shower of leaves in the yard. Much raking and leaf blowing to come. Last year we had soooooo many bags of leaves. I couldn't believe it. This year we are staying on top of it so far. So hopefully that will help.

(okay I'm gonna have to post this now--my cat is licking the computer monitor! Yikes!)

Internet Probs

Damn that SBC!! We've been having internet problems. Sorry for my absence. Once it is cleared up I will write again. Until then, I'm not comfortable posting from work.

I'll write soon.
