Middle of the week...

It's Wednesday. I had a rude awakening this morning...my alarm clock went off. Almost never did the clock have to wake me up. I have this OLD radio shack radio clock that you're supposed to put under a kitchen cabinet and you can play music, etc. You can plug in a coffee pot to start brewing on the timer you set it up. I use any ole lamp (on, of course) and set the alarm for 5:50 am. I have had this clock since 1989!

Some things don't work, I've lost the hardware where you can attach it underneath something, and I am missing a button...but it still works. It still goes on, even if my inner alarm wakes me up 1/2 hour before it goes off.

I didn't sleep too well last night and took some bendryl to help me, and well, that can make anyone groggy. So when that went off, I nearly threw my pillow at it.

I'd like to see how long that clock will last me.

We have our Deaf Cafe program. We are trying to resolve a couple things that has yet to be worked out. We've put my husband to work on creating a PP slideshow. BUT, God has never failed us. Everything has always worked out to His advantage.

Only few minutes left until I return to my desk. I do have an upcoming meeting with my supervisor and the "2nd in command" today to do a follow up on my work review. I am praying it will be good, nothing to rake me over the coals with. I just pray I am not going to be down-graded or whatever.

Keeping my chin up I'm determined to make this a very good day.

PAH!

I have conquered Verizon! After 1 hour 15 minutes...I've managed to get through and have my phone turned off tomorrow morning. Thank you, Lord.

Feeling glad it's Friday? Watch out for Monday, though. Thanks to Brenda for sharing and sending me the clip...


Verizon...

*sigh*

I've been on HOLD for like a lifetime with Verizon. The simple request of turning off my current phone service and to send me the final bill...how hard is it to get that done for me? As of now, i've been on hold for....one hour and 15 minutes!

I signed up for a different phone service...and it will be turned on tomorrow. But, I have to turn off Verizon's services.

I called this number, and they transferred me to another department. Then they transferred me to another department where they help "hearing impaired customers"...and they kept transferring me back to the first department. I feel like I'm being transferred all over Verizon's world. GRRR.

I use Sorenson's IP Relay service. My operator is very patient. I do appreciate his help. I guess being a relay operator requires LOTS of patience!

Well, after this is over....I can breathe? Waste of time.

Anyway, it's Friday today. I'm so thrilled. I can sleep in a little bit.

I'll let you know how it turns out with Verizon later....so stay tuned.......
