Another rainy day...

Colleen and I went to Carroll (30 miles west)  yesterday. She needed a new printer so that was the main feature of our trip.
We also stopped in the Verizon store to talk Internet connection for Colleen. Butch and I have come to the conclusion if we have a connection here and another connection in Texas we can get by in between. The only reason this works is because we can suspend service at little or no cost at each end. On the Texas Time Warner end we pay $4.99 a month for the months we do not use it and on the Jefferson Telecom end we disconnect in October at no cost and reconnect in April/May for a $35 hook-up fee. It has taken us quite some time to get all this ironed out to our satisfaction. The main problem with Verizon is the two year contract and/or the large fee($250) to buy the equipment to not have the contract and then the connection itself does not quite hold up to the others. Streaming video or movies is not going to work well on a 3G mifi. Buffering, buffering, buffering...we have all been there!
We returned to Colleens and hooked up her printer and some other computer issues and maintenance. Full but busy and productive day.
When I came home Butch had enjoyed a day of rest and watching Longmire on Netflix. It looks like today will be another one of those napping -watching the rain kind of days until this afternoon when we are going to Costco and activate our membership. We are sharing a membership with Jason so will pick him up in Boone. He is not at all sure he needs a membership but then I wasn't either until Peggy got me hooked. And MyPoints offered me 1000 points too. And Costco threw in a bunch of free items. It penciled out as they say.
This rain may put another crimp in the room construction. I would out and out cuss using the biggest and nastiest cuss words I could think of if it would do a nickles worth of good. #$%^ it.
