11 hours we waited here on Friday for Verizon to show up and they never did. Oopps they said, miss call and we’ll be a priority call. Uh-huh….Maybe Saturday the person says, not sure if the techs will be going out on Saturday. Saturday or Monday, being priority it’ll be first thing, one of those days. So, with our luck the techs will come by as I’m taking Tommy to school on Monday morning.

Then there was the order screw up with Direct TV. After a 1/2 hour and being transferred to someone who spoke English a little better and we were able to get what we wanted (mind you not what we had ordered originally). So we are still without our internet (still boucing off someone’s wireless connection).

We went to Bed, Bath & Beyond to try to pick up curtains &/or shades that we need for the house. We weren’t able to get Tommy & Anthony ones to match their red shades. But we were lucky enough to be able to pick up another curtain panel and window scarf for our room. So, if the boys don’t wake up before the sun tomorrow morning, the sun shouldn’t wake us up either.

We celebrated Tommy’s birthday on Friday night, after Direct TV was here installing the receiver and boxes, and Mr S showed up to check on the work done in the basement. We had KFC for dinner and had a car cake that Tom decorated. He opened his presents and loved them all. We’ll put up more pictures soon. Tomorrow we will be working on Thank You cards.
