Day 859 - we have an old door to the back yard and it was a real problem to lock it. So much of a problem that I would think ten time before opening it. As we soon found out, the problem was that they put the wires of the TV. And Internet connections around the door frame and it just got in the way. So yesterday. Full of motivation to do some more fixing up, we decided to tackle the issue. A brief look reveled the reason and also a possible solution. The wire connections looked very old and we had our hook up station at the other end of the house. So it was clear (to the untrained eye) what to do; we just had to cut this bunch of old wires and all door problems will be saved. And this is precisely what we did. Alas, as we found out, it is always better to check rather than immediately cut. As it turned out it was not the wisest decision, it was a live connection and now we have no land line and no Internet connection. And two adults that felt a little stupid for not checking first.
I am thankful nothing worse that a cut connection had happened. I am thankful for great service by our communication provider. They were ready to cone tomorrow to fix it. I am thankful for lesson learned.
