I read "Your call..." and we're on the same page. I've gotten the electricity back in my bedroom, but the septic people still haven't called, and the dishwasher still sits here unusable. We old people can't take this much frustration. It raises our blood pressure, and we could die from it. (Just kidding--had mine checked yesterday, and it was 122/72.) They haven't killed me yet, try as they might. We'll keep up the fight!
