Friday our DirecTV went out. Probably because of snow on the dish, or the winds or weight of the snow got it out of alignment. I pay for the protection plan precisely for this issue. First of all they had me look for the reset button which was not where Roy said it was. We have the new-fangled receiver so there is no door where the reset button is behind like on the old receiver. He did not have me look elsewhere for the button. My wife said it’s on the back of the unit. Roy should know that. Oh, this convo with Roy was via Chat, because customer service was closed. So of course I got disconnected from that Chat before there was a resolution. My wife called Saturday. Firstly, the woman, not in this country, told my wife that we needed to go on the roof to remove the snow. This was told to my wife after she specifically told her we are both disabled and cannot get on a ladder. (Are you forking kidding me? I tear my meniscus and sprain my LCL getting off an MRI table and they want me to climb a ladder and go on the roof? Not gonna happen.) Then this woman tells my wife that they can’t send a tech out due to the snow because it’s not safe to use a ladder and go on the roof with the ice and snow. But it’s ok to tell a disabled and injured person to get on a ladder and the roof and get the snow off. 🤷🏻♀️ Seriously? They won’t send an able bodied person over to do it, but they’ll tell a disabled person to do it. And no, we can’t switch to Comcast because there are constant outages in our neighborhood. We can’t even switch to Hulu Live because our internet signal isn’t strong enough and they can’t do anything about it. Yeah, it’s a clusterfork.
How do we watch the Super Bowl? Thank you for asking. I had already looked up how to do that for my daughter because they no longer have cable and the group home agency refuses to purchase antenna amplifiers to amplify the signals for local channels. (Amazon has them for reasonable prices, so I saved a few in my lists so when my daughter moves to the apartments we can order one for her.) My daughter’s housemate has a laptop they are going to hookup to the tv to mirror the laptop onto the tv.
So how do you stream the Super Bowl for free? The CBS Sports app. So that is how my daughter at her group home and we will be watching the Super Bowl on Sunday.
We were supposed to go to my father-in-law’s to do laundry, lunch, and play cards, but that got canceled. When I woke up I straightened out my left leg to position myself to get out of bed when something pulled in my lower back all the way down to my ankle. It was ridiculously painful. So I can’t go anywhere. My wife called to cancel. She didn’t want to go anyway. A weird convo with her Dad made her change her mind.
