Wednesday: A very, very BUSY day!!

After no morning rituals, I was up and on the phone at 7:30 this morning to talk with the installer about the cable that he used.....to make sure it was all brand new. He assured me that it was new......and so at 8, I called Directv. With them....it was a lengthy conversation, as I talked with three different service people......and then was assigned to a "Case Manager". She called me about two hours later, and once again I explained the problem . Long story short......Directv is sending out a "Tech Supervisor" on SUNDAY afternoon to check out the system, etc., etc. Hmmmm.....why do I not feel good about a positive resolution????

This morning I also ran out to the home of Dave and Sue Hanner to look at their HD tv and to compare picture quality with ours.........and the one they have is mucho better than ours!!!! OK....there has to be something wrong here......

The rest of the morning was spent in preparing for a house full of guests.......cleaning, etc., etc. Then this afternoon I left at 3pm to run up to STL to the airport to pick up Jeremy and Anne-Marie, their plane arriving at 6pm. WOW......how unusual that there were not very many people in the airport at all.....and this is supposed to be the heaviest travel day of the year!!!!! I have seen lots more people in the terminal on a normal day than this evening!!!! Really unusual!!!

We drove on back to F'town, picking up something to eat in Farmington before arriving at the stick and brick, which was already jumping as Dr. Jeni and Darrel with Meghan, Ava, and Max had already arrived. On the way home, Jeremy relayed a few stories about his experience being with former Pres. Bill Clinton last week in Atlanta. Clinton had flown from Dubai to Atlanta to give a speech or two for Jeremy's new candidate, Jim Martin, who is in the run-off for the US Senator from Georgia. Jeremy and Clinton really got along great he was saying........and he was sooooo impressed with him as he sat one on one with him as Jeremy gave him a briefing on the campaign status.

And sooooo, a busy day........however, as always.....

LIFE IS REALLY, REALLY GREAT!!!!!!......And, I hope it is for all of you, also!!!!
