Lunch at Otts

I invited everyone on my DIS private staff website to lunch at Ott's today, then mentioned it on Facebook, then wrote some individual letters to people from the Middle School and High School, and asked Sue Perotta to post a notice at DIS for people to see.

I was glad to hear back from people, even though most of them aren't available....keeping in touch is the main thing! I only know of four for sure(!) but we'll see who turns up!

Meanwhile the first day of school trip to Seaside is on the horizon....maybe we'll go next week too...the weather looks good.

My advanced H & R Block classes are starting up. I am so excited to be back in a learning environment!

We've seen some new movies. I like District 9, and was surprised I did! I am glad I got to see how the movie business handed Time Travelers Wife (but, as expected, the book was way better!)

Kim Hummell and Kris were at Prospectors Friday while we were there! How fun to see them!

I'm thinking of the Kayes in Pelham and hoping all is going well with the settling in and that we get to see them soon!

Big Comcast is Watching You!

Wow! I had the second blog comment in my history of blogging here and it was a very nice note from Melissa of Comcast, concerned about my connectivity troubles with the internet. (See comment on previous entry).

I was actually going to report our success in getting back on line here anyway. Tom went in person to the Comcast office and got the modem traded in for a new one, and then came home and hooked it up and ..voila!...back in business. Yay.
Meanwhile, how did Melissa find my note? Isn't that amazing?

I am heading out to a meeting. Looking forward to Prospectors and dancing tonight!

Super slow Comcast-The Online Nightmare

Recent news: Myrtle Beach was awesome, I got lost two times one day en route and home from a meeting in Lawrenceville (thank goodness I live in a small state!), I'm trying to get my DIS school friends to lunch next Monday for a preschool starting get together, Doreen is home after successful surgery, Jeff's boys are back home (in NY!)from a week in CA having fun with Jenn and Jass and Sue and all, I'm working on the BCEA website, getting it ready for fall, my H&R Block classes start up tomorrow, we're still looking to get to the beach a couple of times before summer's end, and I'm still loving Facebook, but the big story on action news is....our internet suddenly got really slow to no trans and I called Comcast and they will send someone on ........WEDNESDAY! (sometime between 1 and 5). Don't they know we live on the computer and this is torture?!!! :-(
