Not Again!

Michael stayed home with Jemima on Wednesday, as her cough and runny nose are just not going away. He thought he'd take the opportunity to do a number of mundane jobs, like emailing our tax stuff to the accountant and ringing various organisations that needed to be rung. All was going well, until he picked up the phone..... no dial tone. The water pipelines bastards had done it again! So, no phone or internet from Wednesday morning until about lunchtime on Friday!! You don't realise how much you use these two items, until they are taken away from you.

Michael confronted the lads that were making a mudpit of our service road, but they denied that it could have been their company. HUH! The people across the road had lost their phone as well.

On the bright side, I finally met our neighbours that live about a kilometre down the road, on the same side. Craig and Sarah have a 5 year old, Isabelle, who is very outgoing and would probably love to play with Jemima. I'd called in to see if they had dialtone (they had), and Isabelle talked the whole time. She'd give Jemima a run for her money!

Let's see if the idiots can make it a trifecta!
