Friday, December 9, 2016

Hey, good day! We were ALL up at 5 a.m. for no particular reason; well, maybe we were fussing about our lack of TV issue. 🤔 The Scotties were happy enough to watch the news on our little bedroom Telly because they were able to be on the bed with us.

I do like to "sleep on it" when things are topsy-turvy like yesterday's equipment failures. Although Walmart's extended warranty will cover repairs at Vizio (totally free), it's going to take some time. As I mentioned to Mark, I dislike disruptions to our lives so ... I ordered a new Vizio and when the repaired one arrives back it'll be tucked into a closet as backup. 😜

At 10:20 I got notice that our TV had arrived at Walmart. We finished up our morning routine and rushed over to the store only to find that it was still on a truck on the loading dock. So, we did a little shopping and checked back. By that time it was a madhouse in the pick up area with people paying up their layaway on Christmas presents. Oh boy! Eventually, we gave up and finished our shopping, took 20 minutes or more to check out, and headed home. On the way home, Mark said in a lovely little voice, "it'll be fast and easy ... we'll just pop in and pick up the TV at the store!" 😝

After a rushed lunch, he jumped in the Kia to head to The Villages for his 2 o'clock appointment. After that, he will swing by Walmart as the TV is now ready. The three year extended warranty paperwork is not, but, I guess we could get that at a later date. Whatever! 

 
It was chilly enough at 5 AM for the kids to enjoy their coats for the first time this year. Don't they look dapper? Speaking of cold, Rick and Ruth are hunkered down in their condo with snow flying. Brrrrr ... they will definitely be in Florida next winter, says Ruth. 👍🏻

 
This is Rick and Ruth's view. He said it was just beginning to snow again! 

Well I just had an email notification that Mark picked up our TV. I had better pour a drink for him before he starts hooking up the wires. Ha ha. Maybe that will help it go easier. What do you think? 😬
 
Ho Ho frickin Ho ! 
 
By 630, we were sitting with our second glass of wine enjoying our new telly. Amazingly, all our Comcast recording's are in tact. 

Ta Ta til tomorrow. 😘
