Internet, Finally

I’ve been tethering to a third cell phone and using Bluetooth to connect to my AT&T unlimited data usage minutes. Finally I can just flip on the monitor and am good to go. Yesterday was particularly painful as it was slower than dial-up and I couldn’t write anything. Who has time to write anyway?

It’s raining in the mountains, duh, we’re in the mountains. It just started raining here a couple of minutes ago. After the cable/modem guy came and Zoe was nutty for him (who knows, 20 years ago I may have been nutty too) so has finally slept.

Cable guy told me what I was seeing out our windows. We’re facing S/SW. I can’t take photos for you right now because I can’t even see the tops of the mountains. To the west is the Olympic Center from 2002 with ski jumps (yes I can see them from inside), luge and more. Right in front of us is The Canyons. Further West is the front side of Park City, and behind that the bald mountain is Deer Valley.

Tonight it’s ye olde spaghetti and meatballs. Tomorrow I’ve enough for mac and cheese and a nice salad. I’m making bacon and eggs for breakfast. With toast, Lemon Zinger tea and orange juice.

It’s so nice to have Internet on demand again. The ducks are taking their evening dip into the rivulets (not really streams but I’m no expert) and it’s really interesting to see them come and go. Now larger groups are arriving. It’s wonderful that this land went to the Preserve. I’m so interested that when I’m finished with boxes and taxes I may consider volunteering there or at the local animal shelter.

I found (online) Zoe’s frozen raw food less than a mile away, got one bag. I believe her dry food is only 2-3 miles away so that’s good. I can’t wait for Spring and Summer and Fall here. It’ll be gorgeous.

Please keep reading, commenting and cooking. I have to test the state of the cookware here, starting tonight with a simple meal, Jim’s favorite.

Cheers, Dee

p.s. Zoe and I did move in together on Monday but that was just because Jim was at work. When I re-read the post it looked like we may have separated, that is not the case. D
