Home DSL Kaput!

My home DSL is on the fritz!

Yesterday they said "there is an outage in your area" try later.....

4 hours later........

8 hours later........

16 hours later......

24 hours later I called the provider  (bellsouth, same as phone) from work....No reported outages.  Yet no one is ONLINE at my home.....

Yes, I've reset EVERYTHING and as a matter of fact my computer guru is at my home "on vacation", and even SHE can't get it working. 

We'll try again after dinner!

The Christmas stuff is finally back in its little areas, the "toy room" is getting arranged and re-arranged.  I've sorted thru some of Miss T's Barbie things and Polly Pockets and organized that mess.

So what does she do?

She pulls out the Barbie houses we have left and the dolls.....and begins to play with them..

I thought she was moving BEYOND this.......

Oh well.......

I'm in the process of networking my 2 home computers together, wireless.  Once that's done, I have a "fix-it" program that I will use to clean up the one at work...I'll be smooth sailing again!!

Hey Lisa in KY!!  I needa address to send you the Junie B Jones books.

Love y'all!

Sorry about your DSL.  Sounds like you were pretty busy anyway organizing and sorting.  It is hard for kids to give up favorite toys even when they don't play with them so much--my grandkids each have a drawer in a dresser here at my home where they keep drawing books, pencils, crayons, etc. and a basket full of toys that sits permanently behind my hubby's easy chair.  A while back I asked them to go through their stuff and whatever they did not want anymore I would give to Good Will.  They took everything out and put everything back except for one little "Barney" book.  So the Barbies, Lion Kings and Big Red Dog stuff will become "keepsakes" waiting for them at Grammy's house.  Nancy

Hi, there!  I just installed my new printer in wireless mode.  It was pretty easy just follow the instructions...read them first!  It brought back memories of the first time I tried to put a bicycle together reading the instructions....LOL...Good luck hope it all is working well soon...it's cold and snow here but it is supposed to warm up by tomorrow ...finally!  Maria   http://journals.aol.com/gotomaria/TheLittleThings/

Hope you get that darn problem with the DSL fixed soon.  I had problems with AOL and not being able to get back on this afernoon.  Both my PC and Laptop did the same thing but it wasn't our cable, the internet explorer was working.  Anyway, have a good rest of the week.
