Tired of being told one thing and getting another??

Last Saturday, I received a call from Sprint. They offered me a free phone and free additional line. I told them that I didn't need anymore, even if it was free, but they insisted I get on the website, view my free phone, etc and I thought, why not?? I could give the phone to our parents! Monday, the phone arrived and I was on the phone with them, and 5 representatives, trying to fight for the FREE line that they promised me. How rediculous is that?? I finally talked to "Accounting" and she tried to get me to agree to 4.99 per month for the FREE line and I declined and told them to DEACTIVATE the new line asap. She RELUCTANTLY agreed to give me what was promised 2 days prior. I have had this issue with them regarding my roaming minutes as well. Correct me if I am wrong, but doesn't FREE mean FREE?? If I didn't already have a contract with them and such excellent reception where we live, I would consider going to another cell provider... Has anyone else had this problem?? Hubby calls it the old bait and switch trick. It is soooooooooo draining talking to all of those reps and hearing different rates and fees and circumstances ~ I bet many people just don't bother to fight it, but I would think that excellent customer service and consistency would win more customers, wouldn't it??

I'VE BEEN TAGGED!!

When I was little, I used to LOVE playing dress up and played tag in the yard for hours, running through the lightening bugs and feeling the wet dew under my bare feet... Now I've been tagged and here are my answers to 5 things you never knew about me... I have tagged others and will wait and see where they run to next ~

1. I met my hubby online ~2. I love Mustangs (the car), but they just aren't suitable for "mom's taxi purposes" ~3. I used to do wedding invites, as I enjoyed calligraphy and love painting with watercolors ~4. I'm scared of bridges... YEPPERS!! Just like Mark on The Biggest Loser, I hate them. I don't like driving over them, walking over them or anything about them.5. I enjoy reality shows ~ I have tagged http://www.oodlekadoodleprimitives.blogspot.com/ , http://www.nannygoatprimitives.blogspot.com/ , http://www.beasbuzzin.blogspot.com/ and I think that's it... unless I tagged http://www.birchberryfarms.blogspot.com/ again??www.finecountryliving.com LOL!!!!! Are we having fun yet?? I think we are tagging each other..... ROFL!!!

Our dog is like Clifford. He kept growing and growing and is quite large. He is a mutt doggie... has a little bit of austrailian sheperd, black lab and who knows what else?? His paws are huge and he can't stand to have his nails clipped. I have tried and even started to do them when he was a puppy. He simply never liked it. He goes through 8 dog treats while I do them LOL!!

With springtime here, so are allergies! I love to mow grass and right now and trying to rake up the last of the oak leaves from fall. The grass is so new green and fresh. Our bradford pears, forsythia, daffodils, hyacinths and weeping cherry trees are in bloom. The yard looks gorgeous! I can't wait for the dogwoods to bloom. We have pink dogwoods and white dogwoods. Our redbuds are popping out as well. What's blooming in your neck of the woods?
