This is a quick “head up” message about my difficulties with the EOGN newsletter:

I presently own 2 houses, about 1,200 miles apart. That is a long and tortuous story by itself. I’ll skip the story about how I got myself into this mess, other than to say “never again!”

Last week, I travelled from the old house (which is up for sale but nobody has made an offer for it yet) and I flew to the new house to take care of chores (buy a lawnmower and numerous other things I didn’t have in the old house, mow the grass, make arrangements for mail at the new house, and more).

The Internet connection was working when I was last at the new house about 6 months ago. When I arrived Thursday evening (in the dark) the Internet connection was dead. Zero. Nada.

Skipping the long and dull part of the story, I didn’t get it repaired until this afternoon.  Well, I can’t take credit for getting it fixed; a tech support guru in some foreign country (I didn’t ask where) really deserves all the credit. I simply served as his eyes and fingers on the keyboard.

He was the real “fixer.” He had me doing troubleshooting techniques I had never heard of before.

I am going to take the rest of the day off (I am exhausted) but hope to be back in business tomorrow.

Thank you for your patience.
