Title: not mad just confused...
Post by: luvtimes on 03 12, 19, 10:25:02:AM
now paid the cable service yesterday...

 they sent me a notice that from now on the bill will be due on the 5th of each month...

I'm ok with that except are they prorating the bill... I mean it's the 12th today... and I will be paying the full amount again on the first..

 there's 19 days  I've paid for service I will lose... or are they going to tack those  19 days at the end of my service....

I tell ya... times are changing... and I don't mean daylight savings time.. (Oh!Trump may change the daylight savings with an executive order...or something)

I mean the way folks do their business...

calling them today to get the jest of it all...

Prorated means they will adjust to credit you for what's been paid already.

They will fix it so you won't over pay.

We got rid of the cable and stream in apps like Direct TV Now, Amazon Prime, Acorn and Netflix.  We pay separately for internet and get all the local networks through our indoor antenna.

that's smart Emily...

need internet for surveillance here... but phone and cable is useless and it cost almost the same if I get rid of phone and cable...

so I suffered the whole winter with high cost of heating here... and it was large... shutting it all down... will be returning here when I finish Memphis... and today is the day that I've felt normal for the first times in months... I just needed the rest...I guess...

I checked to see what was happening in Memphis and most of the folks around me have moved on... may be getting new neighbors upon arrival... but got to get there... not looking forward to the drive cause the rain is terrorizing the south like crazy... was thinking about avoiding the highway altogether and go the side roads... but that may take longer... so I will have to wing it the best I can...

feeling short of funds too...

my lawn guy emailed me today and wants to know if I need him for the season... he can cut it once this week and after that I will do it until I leave... nightmare...

I need more money...seriously...

Owning 2 homes to maintain can leave you short, especially if you aren't renting one out to defray costs.  Be safe on your long journey and make sure of the road conditions if you decide to sidetrack.
