My TV Cable. Memorial Day

My TV Cable

I didn't get online last Saturday morning cuz the green light on cable in the black box was not working as I was about to turn programs on in my computer after 7:30 am.  Also, some of my TV channels looked like snowy and sometimes blue and no CC.  Then I immediately called the TV cable company in my hometown on TTY.  I can't using VRS cuz it's connecting to the black box.  I know that wouldn't work.  As I was talking to the lady who works at a TV cable company on TTY, I asked for Saturday schedule but she said Sunday.  She can't guarantee that Saturday cuz so many techs are working with other customers on that same day.  I said okay.  Later that Saturday morning, some of TV channels were getting a clear with CC.  They looked a okay to me.  No tech showed up that Saturday but Dad informed the tech would come on Sunday when he came over again.  Watched TV programs and movies all day were boring to me.  I had no weekend plans.  The next day, Sunday, a tech from TV cable company showed up late cuz he got a wrong address.  I was informed that from Mom thru an interperter on a VP since Sunday morning that I've discovered the green light on cable kept coming back.  I was surprised but I had to keep an eye on the green light if it disappears again.  Anyways, the tech did show up that afternoon.  I discovered a tech knows how to do a sign language but he said he's slow learning it.  Thank God.  That's what I needed.  Dad came over after tech did.  The tech inspected the black box and discovered the signal is so low.  What?  I had no idea.  Before that, I tried repairing the cord to replug the black box several times but I am tired of it.  The tech said the signal is coming from outside my apt.  He replaced old cords with a new ones.  I thanked him for repairing it.  And then he left.  It's working now but this morning there's no green light on cable again.  I fixed it before I turned programs on in my computer.

 

Memorial Day

My holiday plans yesterday was lacking.  I was supposed going to a park at the beach and have a picnic there but Dad changed his mind when we found out the battery in his car went dead that morning.  It happened outside my apt as Dad was about leaving there.  Dad was upset.  Dad planned to do a speech for Memorial Day at the ceremony that late morning.  He did it successfully when David took him there.  I stay home all day.  I felt so boring.  I ate a hot dog that my mother brought to me from her home but it's okay.  I can tell that those came from a health food store.  I wanted regular ones.  I did go to that park last year while my mother was in PA.  I had a wonderful time there.  I really wanted to go back there so bad and enjoy the beach activity.  Pretty soon, I will go back there.  I can't wait.
