Here's the deal. Brandon made, in his words, and "executive decision" last week and we are switching over from DirecTV to Dish Network. We were able to get a bundle deal though our phone company and will be saving $80 a month! $80!!! That's insane. Anyway, in order to do so we had to have Dish come in and install their stuff and then have DirecTV come take their stuff away.
Well.
My phone rang at 7:15 this morning. It's the Dish man and he says he'll be here in half an hour to start the installation. I told him I'd be taking my girls to school at that time, but would be home by 8. He said he'd just wait in the drive. And he did. I was excited. When things like this happen I'm usually stuck at home waiting on the people to show up. They're usually not waiting on me. I just knew his service would be just as prompt as his arrival.
Wrong.
Friends, as I type it's after noon. He has been here four hours and counting. And... He's. Still. Working. I'm about to go insane. I can't get a single thing done because he's moving from room to room and I don't want to keep bumping into him. I've been chilling out in my room. Oh, except for when the Pest Control man came and did our quarterly spray. So I had TWO strange men in my house AT THE EXACT TIME!! I could have been killed by two different men today. So scary, really.
Since I was stuck in here I figured I would do a little updating on the blog. I wish I had wonderful and profound things to say, but I don't. Brandon and I had a nice, quiet Valentine's Day. The girls had a long weekend and spent a fabulous time with Grammy and Grampy. Dad got a puppy this weekend and the girls fell in love. He's a Great Pyrenees and his name is Boy. Such a little love. I'll get pictures on here soon.
In other, completely random, news....The hair is ok. I realize the previous post was a little dramatic. I'm learning how to fix it and am learning to enjoy it. It was supposed to be an easy style, but it is definitely high maintenance.
Alright, I have to go spy on this man in my house. I think he went back outside for ANOTHER smoke break. Gotta find the Lysol!
