Good Noon

Saturday was a beautiful sunny day in Preble. I spent a lot of time outside and forgot that I no longer have shade in the form of hair on the top of my head. Scalp sunburn isn't fun, guess I'll have to dig out that old straw hat again. Today is also sunny and about 55 but my plan is to stay out of the sun.

For those who have been following my problems with Dish Network: Friday from 7 to 10:30 PM two techs from DN were here installing new cables and that seemed to fix it. However on Saturday the system failed completely. Just for the heck of it I climbed out on the roof and switched the cables around and hit the dish for good measure... It worked, for now. Obviously there is a problem at the dish itself and a tech is supposed to come out today around 4 to fix it. I decided not to switch to DirectTV because it would be difficult for my 98 year old mom to learn a new system. Everything works slow at 98. Enjoy this beautiful day.
