Updates

Remember when I said, "That's the way my life goes" ???? Here's a bit of an update. I spent another 30 minutes on hold for support chat at Cradlepoint to find out where my router is. Remember, Monday I was told it would be here Monday or Tuesday. Of course, that didn't happen...nor did it come today.

I FINALLY got a tracking number for FedEx today. They won't tell me when it was shipped--it was supposed to be shipped as soon as they got the defective one. They got the defective one on Jan. 04. Guess what? The tracking number they gave me says "no information can be found in our system". OF COURSE! Because....everyone say it with me...."that's the way my life goes!"

My guess is, they haven't actually shipped it yet. It's in a box sitting somewhere, waiting to be picked up by FedEx. I am LIVID, and will NEVER deal with these people again. It's been 2 weeks without a router, and I was promised speedy turn around. I don't call 2+ weeks speedy!

Then I also have a gripe about UPS. I was waiting for 2 microSD cards for mine and hubby's Blackberries. I assumed they would come via USMail, as the ones I ordered for our daughters did--from the same company. Guess I was wrong...I checked on the order, and there was a tracking number. When I tracked it, UPS said that they were delivered to my CAR three hours prior.

Yes, my car...the one that's about 100 feet from my house on the street, at the bottom of the hill on which I live. I sent my youngest down to see if she can find it. They put the box in a plastic bag, and hung the bag from a windshield wiper on the street side of the car!!!! I was shocked! NEVER have they done that. I had UPS deliveries earlier this week, and they brought it up to my porch. UPS always brings it up to my porch, or if it's one of the guys who know me, they have my cell #, and I go down--or send a kid--to get it so they don't have to walk. (Their trucks will not make it up my driveway even in good weather...the last one that tried lost a mirror)

Again..."that's the way my life goes!" At least I do have the SD cards...mine stopped working a couple of weeks ago, and hubby has never had one. I lost all pictures, ringtones, etc. that was on mine :( My computer couldn't read the card either...so it just went bad. When I have some free time--yeah, right, what's free time?--I'll put some new ringtones on.

My MIL was kind enough to pick up my mail for me. So my new bra is here, and my Netflix movies! YAY! I sent youngest down the hill to get it all from her--as she got stuck 2 out of the 3 times she's tried to come up the driveway in the last week, and ended up backing down. It's awful to back down a steep hill with a curve in the middle when it's covered in snow and ice. *yikes*

Defrosting chicken for dinner. Oldest is doing laundry. Youngest is reading a book. I've got to get back to work!
