A new hope, kinda...

Hello!


Something good was bound to happen sooner or later and it happened today!


Around 1:15 this afternoon I called the government architect, notice how he's an architect now compared to before, and he reassured me that he mailed the documents that will allow me to get some companies to bid on the project. So I'm much more closer then ever to be able to step outside on my own; yay universe! Now I have to call my occupational therapist to let her know where we are on this, I'm pretty sure she's not going to believe me.

You know how I switched Internet company from Bell to videotron?! Well it's been three weeks and for the fuck of it I decided to go and test my speed. I hit 18/30 Mb that I'm supposed to have, so I called technical support. It's really not much of a difference, they asked that I do several tests before they send somebody. Unfortunately I cannot do this test because all the hardware seems to be out of my reach. So they requested that I do another test this evening with another computer and if the problem persists on that computer, that I should try connecting to the modem directly and not through a router... Then and only then will they take their thumbs out of their asses and see if there is a hardware problem... God I miss Bell already!


Take care homies, see you next month!

Fallen

Hello!


Well I take this time, lunch time, to write a small post because if I would do it any other time, chances are that speech recognition wouldn't work. As I told you people they are changing the Windows so debris is falling left and right. Even my bath guy had to wait for a couple of pieces to fall down before he was able to enter my place... Sorry about that, you didn't noticed it but my daughter just called me to inform me that they had the afternoon off so she was going to be visiting her friend... back to the falling debris!

So yes, right now is actually quite outside. The complete opposite of what it was prior to me having a bath and during my bath. It looks like a war zone out there with pieces of wood all over the place, there is also the pink stuff they put around Windows as to make sure the cold doesn't get in...

My wife's car is getting the winter tuneup today, oil change and installation of the winter tires. Here in Québec it's the law and everybody must have them prior to December 15 otherwise the man will ticket your ass off! I think this is a good law because it helps eliminates accidents in winter due to tire grip issues.

Well take care folks!

PS Great! Just great! the hammering has started up again....

Another fruitless Monday with Olivia

Hello!


Good day to you world!


So how's my computer? Well, it could be better! I'm writing this post on a flaky computer, speech recognition is extremely slow and I find that there's too much silence with the CPU; kinda like one fan is not doing its job. Tonight it will automatically scan for viruses and tomorrow I will check the results. I already took out so many programs and I defrag the hard disk. So how did I get this thing back to work? Well it took me all day yesterday and to be honest, I have no clue how it came back from the dead... I need a new computer people, I need a new computer.

So last week it was the patio doors, this week?! They are going to be doing the windows on the second floor! I think my wife told them that we needed a heads up when it came to my Windows since I received baths in the mornings and therefore the upgrade to new Windows would be impossible to do. Come to think of it, I will call the government guy to see where my project is at...

Well that's it people! Hopefully this "computer" will keep on going until past Christmas where I would have finished with the China trip, the daughter's birthday, the Christmas thing and the holy Kings thing in Mexico... Then I will be able to start saving for computer.

Take care folks!
