No Internet at home
At some point I will have to upload many pictures and actually write another blog post. But until I have the time to do that I will just write a quick update.
This weekend my cable modem died a horrible death. According to Comcast it has been slowly dying for the last few weeks from what they could see in their logs. My family easily forgets what the internet brings to the house and how much we rely upon it.
Brandon, who up till this weekend has not really used the computers much at all this summer, wanted desperately to play with his web kins. He even stated last night that they will probably die since he will not have time to feed them now.
All of our TiVo’s are complaining about not being able to update their television guides and both Danith and I needing to connect into work this weekend and not being able to. But we did enjoy some spare time to watch the Nanny Diaries and have a bottle of wine.
So today over lunch I am off to replace the cable modem and next week after Labor day Comcast is coming out to upgrade the modem to the next model which offers higher speeds. 50 Megabytes down and 5 up, I will have to do some speed tests once they install that and see what it is in reality.
Otherwise Brandon, Danith and I got our hair cut this weekend in preparation for family pictures coming up soon (As well as school pictures for BG). Saturday night we got out to see the Dweebs playing at Woodbury days and watched the fireworks put to live music. It was a good show.
This Wednesday we are heading to the State Fair so hopefully I will be able to get my pictures uploaded by then and post a good update before our Labor day vacation in Wisconsin.
