A few months back we cancelled our DISH services. Upon doing that, we had to send back all of our equipment. They send us the boxes, we send it back. Since I don't wanna bore you with all the details, long story short, the first set of boxes they mailed to our old house. We had been living at our new for over a year & they had been sending the bill here. I don't know what the deal was. How can they have the wrong address??
Fast forward to last night. My darling hubby has been hard at work painting the foundation & trim work on the outside of our home. He's close to the finish, with only the front porch area to go. He swung out by our local home stores after work yesterday. He was in the market for more paint, brass address numbers, & a brass mailbox. He has a vision.
At the first of the three home stores, he grabbed his paint & address numbers, but had no luck with the mailbox. He headed to the second & third only to be crushed. No mailboxes there either. When he came home he showed me the numbers & was toying with the idea of returning them. Why? He liked the looks of some others at the second & third home store better. Deep sigh.
I go on with making supper and he's still contemplating. He heads outside, with numbers in hand, to do a quick look see. And he's right back in, laughing. "You're never gonna believe this," he says.
I think I have a pretty good idea........
He begins to lay out all the numbers on the counter. Yes folks, he got our old address numbers!! Um, how long have we been here now? Almost TWO years. Count them. TWO years. How is the stinking DISH company supposed to keep up if my DH can't?
No need to worry, this post isn't gonna cause any hard feelings or fights. We actually had quite the laugh & he's well prepared, knowing this is going up :)
