She had phone service, she screwed it up switching carriers in the middle of switching carriers. Tangled up the paperwork something fierce, compounded by her repeatedly trying to help unscrew it over a cell phone that she can't hear using, not that she listens, either. Further compounded by her habit of turning off the cell phone when she's not actually making a call, and not knowing how to answer it even when it's on. Insanely complicated by not remembering her PIN for any of the multiple carriers she got involved, and made virtually indecipherable by her command of telco terms and lingo.

With any luck at all, I finally got it sorted out, and she should be able to make phone calls tomorrow with her land line on a temporary number, and recover her 40 year's plus phone number by next week.

Assuming her VOIP box was properly plugged in by the last person she had over re-installing her internet and cable. How that got screwed up is a whole 'nother story...

And assuming she doesn't try to help again...

Holy majole. And I thought I was bad. Knowing how really bad I am, I have a little 5”x7” spiral notebook that I have all my passwords for all the websites I visit, even just once a month. If I visit for a reason, I have to write down what is what and why.

Wow. Sainthood can’t be far from your door, is it?
