Long day of TAKS testing and came home to find that Galveston Internet Services is incapable of hooking me onto the website. Douglas had business in San Antonio and couldn't call them and determine the problem. I don't understand how we can be so close to Houston and fine technology and have the multitude of problems with our internet that we have had since we moved into our beach house. Oh...you probably don't know and it took us 2 months to discover that when we have strong winds or a storm the little box on the roof of a neighbor's house 3 doors down has to be adjusted. That neighbor hates Galveston Internet and refuses to use them, but the main switchbox for the entire neighborhood is on the top of his house. Doug has to walk to the man's house, climb onto his deck, climb up on a ladder and adjust the signal when we have problems. Sometimes this method works. See what I mean!!!!!
Meanwhile, I received a wonderful surprise gift in the mail today. Another childhood friend, Judy, who lives in Dallas mailed a gorgeous hand beaded cowboy red necklace to me. She is an exceptional jewelry maker and has a fine eye for design. I shall mail her my flying parrot painting (posted earlier...I think) in return. The photo today was taken after school when I u turned and then pulled over to capture these pasture horses that live on the exact middle of Galveston Island.
