“It’s not true. Tell me I’ve been lied to…” ~ ‘I Love you’ by Billie Eilish
Well, long story shorter, the DirecTV install is not happening today.
We waited through most of the morning. Shortly before lunch, my husband got an email saying, “Your parts have been shipped,” or something to that effect. Either the guy lied to my husband, or my husband didn’t listen carefully enough, or SOMETHING – but we can now track the DirecTV system parts which will be delivered to us sometime. The label had been created, but there wasn’t any more information about the tracking than that.
The email then added, “When the parts have been delivered, you’ll receive a call for us to schedule installation.” Oh, yeah? Then what was supposed to have happened today?
SO – since we weren’t going to get the new system installed today, we regrouped. We just got back from gathering the trash and driving it down to the bottom of the driveway, getting our mail, and then going grocery shopping at two stores. We have everything put away now.
The doors are open to a really nice breeze. The temperature is 83, but it doesn’t feel muggy. Wonderful!
I’m trying to concentrate on my walking and a session of yoga today to try to stretch out all the muscles that I worked so hard yesterday trying to get the shelves clean in the entertainment center for the ‘installation.’ If I had known they were lying about when the installation would happen, I could have spaced the work over several days, rather than killing myself trying to do it all in one day.
Of course, if I’m being completely honest, if I had known – I probably would have let it to the last minute, being a slob by nature, and just had the marathon cleaning session then instead of it being done.
I resting regarding cleaning today and will tackle one of the floor-to-ceiling shelves on one side of the entertainment center section tomorrow, after we get back from early voting. So far, our errands counted for the first walking session.
