MY 4 HOUR NIGHTMARE WITH IYOGI!

Yesterday I decided it was time for a computer "tune-up" with iYogi, my online technical support company.  I have a year's subscription with them, and when either of my computers start acting slow or weird, I give them a call in India, Malayasia, or wherever they are.  They take control of my computer, get rid of all the trash files, and Voila!, everything is working better after that - except I still couldn't get my wireless printer to work.  I got connected with them when I was having trouble with my wireless router, and the number to call for tech support was theirs.  At that time I ended up paying $179.00 for a year's contract with them.  This time I forked over $499 for a three year's contract - how stupid am I????  I'm supposed to call them every month so they can clean up my hard drive, and for that kind of money, I WILL call them every month, and they'd better keep my computers working great.  I was on the phone with them while my husband watched an entire football game - that's too long!  I finally told them it was dinnertime in my side of the world, and I had to hang up.  So, a word to the wise - be careful if you get ahold of someone from iYogi support, because it will cost you money!!

Incidentally,  I kept my little baby finch alive long enought to put him in a nest with little finches his size.  So far, he's still in there and doing well.

OH NO!! IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN!

This afternoon I discovered another little newly hatched baby finch on the floor of the aviary - alive.  All I could think was, oh no, here we go again!  I don't want to go through the heartbreak of loosing baby finches again!  At least I won't be going away until Thanksgiving, so I can try to raise this one, or any more that hit the bottom of the cage.  I really believe I can do it, and I am certainly going to give it a try.  I won't give up on this little fellow (or girl), but I know that the odds are against me. 

On a happy note, I heard from my husband tonight, and he's on his way home.  I expect him home in time for supper tomorrow.  In the meantime, I'm busy burning all the boxes from the things I've bought on HSN while he's been gone.  Heee Heee!!  I just couldn't resist.  This week it was free S & H.  How can I let that pass me by?
