Hi there!
Posting a bit early, internet here is being sooooooo goofy.
Greetings to all at the Canteen!
To all our military men and women, past and present,
THANK YOU
for your service!
Hey, Lauren! Sorry the internet is acting up. Hope it gets straightened out soon. It’s soooo frustrating!
Howdy, lauren. *Hugz*
Bummer your ‘net is acting up. I hope it straightens out soon. Maybe it doesn’t like cold weather any more than we do. LOL
Hope all’s well otherwise.
Thanks you!
Thanks for tonight’s Road Trip, Lauren!
SPECTRUM WAS JUST HERE YESTERDAY!
Sheesh
I do think sometimes it IS the cold weather, LOL!
Thank you too!
Good evening to you!
Howdy PROCON!
*HUGS*

I guess our internet is used to summer weather, huh! 🤣
I sympathize. I had plenty of trouble with Comcast over the years. I just dumped them and went with my phone company’s service. A couple of friends have used it for a few years now and are very happy with it.
But we’ll see how it likes cold. LOL Getting ready to be frigid here again. :-(
Hi Everybody!
(((HUGS)))
Howdy, luvie.
Did you enjoy your warm day? Bet your kitties did. >^..^<
Not TOO bad here but it was chilly. Sunshine and no wind made it bearable. Tomorrow will be a repeat, temp-wise, then BAM! The frigid air slams in.
Hey there, radu!
It was really nice. The kitties seemed to be enjoying it too. Tomorrow? Not so much. High=51...not too awful. Low=15!!! 😵💫 NOT good!
Great that the wind calmed down there. Yes...BAM is therthe word tomorrow night there AND here!
“went with my phone company’s service”
Fiber Optic? Yes, it is faaaaaaaassssssssssttttttttttt.
Tomorrow won’t be bad. Wish we could be so lucky here. MIGHT get 40 again.
But YIKES on that low! That’s going to be a BIG drop!
Our painful night will be Thurs. with the low around 8 or 9. yeesh!!
Yes, fiber optic.
It started with me calling about a very loud hum on my phone line. They came out and did a little work but the hum was still there, though not as loud. I called again and they brought up the fact they’d put fiber optic all over this area and asked if I’d be interested. I called my friends who use it and they’re happy.
So I called back and made the arrangements. I’m all hooked up now and called Commiecast this afternoon to cancel service. The TV went off around 5:30. I’ll have to shop around for a reasonably-priced TV I can connect a Roku box to. The TVs here only have coaxial connections.
Comcast is pretty fast but this one is noticeably a little faster. But the main thing, for me, is it’s MUCH cheaper.
And there’s no hum on the phone line. :-)
