We had our traditional Saturday morning sleep in. I got up at 8 and Susan slept until after 9. Once she got up and completed her morning exercise on the rebounder, it was time for cheese eggs.
Yum!
One forecast calls for snow, another for early showers and then clouds while outside in the actual weather, the sun is shining and everything continues to be sloppy.
I'm going to go out and see how much of the sewer drain I can uncover.
In the meantime, we are waiting for the Dish TV guy to call and nail down a 70 minute window for his arrival. I was initially told it would be between noon and 5 today. They said he would call day of to make a more specific time of arrival.
We are making a couple of programming changes to our account which requires a tech.
And so, here at 11:19AM, we wait.
12:14PM: Still waiting.
12:28PM: I just got an e-mail that said the tech would arrive between 4:30 and 5:15.
So I now have time to run some errands.
It is now the end of the day. The satellite guy was here but nothing was resolved.
He arrived about 5 and tried to install an "Over The Air" digital antennae so we could receive local channels.
I am learning that Dish TV is kind of running a scam. They are offering this digital antennae with free installation and $10 off our bill. What they are not saying is that the local Satellite operators that provide the local programming are trying to raise the price Dish TV pays them. Dish appears to be unmovable in the position to not pay more. Therefore, the local providers are set to pull the plug this coming Friday.
So had I not decided to take them up on their offer, we would be losing local channels this Friday. I think there will be a lot of upset Dish TV customers next Saturday.
