Vonage

Let’s see… catching up from Monday late. Tim got home and we went walking and got our two miles in. We had supper and then watched the season finale of ’24’. I couldn’t believe it – now they have Jack in hiding, and we have to wait to see if they figure out a way to bring him back. And we don’t have to wait till September, darn, the preview says we have to wait till January. What’s up with that? We taped the season finale of 7th Heaven, but didn’t watch it. We worked on the PC and phones for a couple of hours after ’24’ went off.

Tim had stopped at CompUSA on the way home and got us a Vonage phone adaptor. We installed it last night and got our new service activated. We did the transfer paperwork to have our phone number transferred from BellSouth, but that’s going to take a while. Their website says a “minimum of 20 working days”, but I think it will be more like a month or two. We’ll see. We realized we didn’t have a free port on the router for the vonage adaptor, so Tim had to “rig” it temporarily, and will have to daisy chain our old router together with the current one, or else we’ll have to buy a bigger router. It’s always something! 🙂

I tried out the phone this morning and called Gail, who said it had some static on it. Then I called Tim at work and he said the same thing, that is has a bit of feedback on it. So that’s going to be a problem. We’ll have to work on moving it around, away from the other equipment, moving stuff around, and trying to get a good setup going. So, everyone, please be patient for a few weeks while we get it all worked out!

I’ve been busy all morning, doing the trivia on Hambones, and then watering flowers and plants, and moving the sprinklers around on the grass. It’s so dry, even though we got a decent shower Friday night. It’s getting so hot every day now, and it’s just drying out so quick. We have large sections of the yard that are so dry, you crunch when you walk on the grass. Blech.

I have a very long to-do list today, so I had better get started with it. 😀
