Today is the day!
After waiting and watching for what seems like forever, wonderful people are coming this afternoon to install fiber optic Internet and TV!
We came to Arkansas in 1986 so that my husband could take a job in Fort Smith. We built our home here on top of a ridge line in 1987, happy to have a place to ourselves, some privacy, room to breathe, and more. We’re about 4 miles from the town of Greenwood. The fact that we’re here provides some character-building aspects, too.
One of those is Internet service that has been pretty awful. We’ve changed to whatever is the best we can do the whole time we’ve been here, but you can only imagine how happy we are to finally get into this century. :0)
This afternoon we are supposed to have real Internet where we could actually stream something, were we so inclined. We might see fewer circles revolving while a picture struggles to emerge. I might not have to wait to see the half-sentence I’ve typed, or may not have to wait after I’ve pressed a button for something to happen.
I can’t wait to see the differences.
I’ve heard that others who have also gotten this service recently are very pleased with the Internet, and that the TV portion of things still has a few bugs. I’ve reminded my husband, since he has even less patience than I, that we may have to be patient when working the bugs out.
Whatever happens, I’m delighted that we’ll have NEW and DIFFERENT experiences and possible issues!
Hooray!
