Taking Time To Thank All Of You



I would like to take this time before I  get into my journal entry to thank all of my readers for their comments. I do enjoy hearing what you have to say about my journal. I began this journal several years ago to chronicle my journey from Pre-Retirement to Retirement and beyond.
Well as things would have it we decided that we would need Sherri's income at retirement to eat so we have been waiting for that date to come around before we go. So it has been a long wait...but as they say...It will be well worth it.
Today I worked on the phone line I ran from the service  box to the computer here in the office. I had to route it through the ribs in the barn and that was no easy task. I did get it done and it turned out OK.
I got the leaves swept up in the back yard and the trash picked up so I am making some headway.
Tomorrow the Direct TV installers come out and I hope to have something to watch. I am getting the 150 channel package. There is no way I will watch all 150 channels in my life time.
I had Dish come out and the guy that came out never had installed in a Motorhome so he left the next one that came out had never installed in a Motorhome either. Now I told them both times that I had a Motorhome and yet they have no installers that know how to put it in?? Here they advertise in all the magazines yet they have no one that knows how to install it. Go figure.
OK so now I have changed to Direct TV and we will see if they know what they are doing. I will bring you up to date tomorrow afternoon.
At least my DSL is working great and we can get on line with a super fast connection. I feel good about staying out here now that we have Internet. Sherri has to have a connection to put in her time and expenses to the home office. When you have a slow connection it takes forever and sometimes you get bumped off line before it goes in. I don't think we are going to have that trouble anymore.
On top of all that I can communicate with all my RVing friends out there and keep up with their where-a-bouts.
OK time to get dinner ready. I am hungry and I get grumpy if I don't eat...
Somewhere in Time

That looks like you could land a spacecraft from your terminal location. Now, just need the TV operational, come on Directv, lets get it going.

Stay Safe

Great lookin terminal. We have rain this morning. Maybe the dry weather has left for a while. Will say "HI" to Mark & Dortha.

I'm so glad you're all caught up in getting "connected". Now I hope you have your PC and not using Sherri's. I hope you'll give us a surprise entry in the chatroom. There's still a few of us from 2007. I hope DirectTV knows what they're doing. We love Dish, it's very reliable even with all the moves we do.

There are companies out there that specialize in RV satellite installations. Then you just get the providers (Direct or Dish) to bring in the control box at a lower price and your in business and you know you won't be leaving your dish somewhere down the road.

It's about time.
