Awake: 7:20am Temp 63 sleep 6+51 mostly cloudy overnight @ Holt, FL.
Kathy does (3) loads of laundry this morning.
Try as I might, I am unable to get our Kirsch.org site up on the computer this morning. I wait until 9:00am West Coast time to call Nick; he checks the site & finds nothing out of order. Our air card signal is fluctuating from (1 to 6) bars with no data downloading.
Next, I call Sprint; the young lady starts out by asking for our mailing address & zip code. I comply with her request & after a long silence, she tells me the system is operating normally. “Let’s go into your air card & check out the properties & settings” she tells me. With her guidance & knowledge, we scrutinize just about everything one could possibly think of…..& finally, it dawns on me! I interrupt her by asking: “when you requested my mailing address & zip code, I gave you our Alaska residence but we are not there now; we are touring in a motorhome presently in Holt, Florida, zip code: 32564.” The next thing I hear from her is: “oh, my gosh!” “Your area is overloaded with cell phone usage; air card downloading, texting, etc + you might be experiencing some weather with heavy rain & maybe thunderstorms.” She advised we wait a few hrs & try again later.
We also had no signals from the direcTV satellite for ABC news, Jeopardy or O’Reilly.
Dinner: leftover Thanksgiving turkey dinner from Jane’s meal; Kathy adds broccoli & gravy, still an excellent meal.
After cleaning the dishes, I try our computer again; signals are normal & all is back to status quo. How about that!
We finish watching DVR movie: “Bonjour Tristesse” with Deborah Kerr, David Niven, Jean Seberg, Geoffrey Home, etc. Teenager does her best to break up romance between playboy widowed father & his mistress, with tragic results. 1958. Slow, methodical & probably best seen by teenagers. Not recommended for adults except the active “soapers.”
Also watch DVD movie: “All my Sons” with Edward G. Robinson, Burt Lancaster, Mady Christians, Louisa Horton, Howard Duff, Arlene Francis, etc. Arthur Miller’s compelling drama of returning soldier (Lancaster) discovering that his father (Robinson) cheated on a war material order, with tragic results. 1948. Good story&, who knows, it could have happened in many of the factories world wide.
Lights out: 12:33am
