Living in the Boonies
We’re not really in the boonies but it feels like it because we’ve had this house for 4 weeks and still don’t have internet or cable! We could survive without cable, but internet? No internet — not working out!
Going to the library or Starbucks or any other free WiFi hotspot to get online is not convenient. Don’t get me wrong, I’m grateful, but… We have MiFi through Verizon and use it daily but we use up TOOOOO much bandwidth just checking email, banking and other daily “needs” for me to upload pictures, YouTube videos, ect. too.
Grrrrr. Getting Charter out here to do what they need to do is proving to be a challenge.
I’m hopeful and doubtful at the same time. Hopeful because I want it to happen. Doubtful because we’ve heard and read countless stories with unhappy endings that all started out exactly like ours.
I’ll let you know how our’s ends as soon as it does.
Until we get our problem solved, I’m taking pictures and video – to share eventually.
For now, intermittent posts and Facebook updates from my phone are the best I can do.
In the mean time, if you feel like tweeting:
#Charter please get internet to @sawdust_girl as quickly as possible!
Maybe that will help.
hahaha ha
(you never know) ; -)
Sounds like you need a poster helper. But I hear ya girl. We are in boonie land also, so internet is very spotty, photo loads are done at local (60 mile trip) McDonalds. but we will be here when you get running fast. We will wait, f-o-r-e-v-e-r
I keep thinking about you Erin. I’m afraid that might be what we have to do to. But, I know I can handle it…’cause you did.
