Question:

– Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Well, I managed to drop 3 lbs without trying, simply by going through a traumatic house closing.  I won’t bore anyone with the horrible details, but it was bad enough that I didn’t eat much for 3 days. I was at 139 lbs this morning, 1/2 pound away from 30 lbs total los. Now the phone company, Veriozon, just informed me they have to run a new line down our street before we can have a phone and they’re about to go off on a BIG strike. The chances of my getting a phone for the new house any time soon are dim. I run a web based business out of my home which requires a phone for credit card processing (and web access since I don’t have cable.) Then, as the icing on the cake,  after I left a window open in the new house for a couple hours yesterday, I came back to find it had cracked. . . Now is when I find out how good and/or bad  the company is that put up this modular home after the closing. <sigh — Jenny 168.5/139/141 Low Carb 9/1998 – 8/2001 and 11/10/02 – Now http://www.geocities.com/jenny_the_bean How to calculate your need for protein * How much people really lose each month *  Water Weight Gain & Loss * The "Two Gram Cure" for Hunger Cravings * Characteristics of Successful Dieters * Indispensible Low Carb Treats * Should You Count that Low Impact Carb? * Curing Ketobreath * Exercise Starting from Zero *  NEW!

Unfortunately, even the easiest of moves are stressful.  Hang in, it’s only a blip on the radar.  Good luck with the telephone line. In a couple weeks this will be something to laugh about and you’ll be so happy in the new house that none of this will even matter. Good luck and hang in there

Boy, some people will do anything to lose weight!  Hang in there, Jenny… it will be over soon. Is there any way you can get a cable modem installed quickly enough to deal with your web business, or is that not available there?  Or not worth it, or…? If I could loan you our DSL, I would… (HUGS) — Nancy Howells (don’t forget to switch it, and replace the to send mail).

Response:

Nancy, I may end up having to move my computer to my brother’s house (way out in the woods) to run my business. The cable modem won’t run my charges which go through a traditional credit card terminal. Plus, we aren’t a TV-watching family so I’d rather not sign up for cable. I’ve lived for 9 years in a town where cable isn’t available and I’d much rather keep reading books and listening to our 3 great NPR stations for my news.  So I am just holding my breath hoping this gets straightened out. The modular company were very reasonable about the broken window (this is the second pane that broke in that particular window which was added to the house on site after it was built, so it probably wasn’t installed right.) They also took care of a couple things that were promised but not done. So I’m decompressing on that. It will take a while to get the window pane replaced but at least they didn’t say, "Too bad, the closing was Tuesday" which is what I was afraid of. — Jenny 168.5/141 Low Carb 9/1998 – 8/2001 and 11/10/02 – Now http://www.geocities.com/jenny_the_bean How to calculate your need for protein * How much people really lose each month *  Water Weight Gain & Loss * The "Two Gram Cure" for Hunger Cravings * Characteristics of Successful Dieters * Indispensible Low Carb Treats * Should You Count that Low Impact Carb? * Curing Ketobreath * Exercise Starting from Zero *  NEW!
