Happy Bunny

A Passing Thought

Should there ever be a day in my life I want to cry, today is the day.
The day that again, I feel abused without a touch being felt,
a word being said, a look being glanced.
Today is the day I am going to be sad, but only for today.
For tomorrow is not today, and who knows what tomorrow will bring me?

While sorting through stuff that has been packed and unpacked and then repacked over the years, I found an old note pad of mine with the above entry in.
I could have written those words yesterday.

It has been a quiet day today. No arguments and she did help me in getting started with the packing. Not that I have got much done so it means twice as much work tomorrow but it will be done. Its got to be. I managed to get hold of a removal company and they are coming out to 'preview' what needs to be removed on Monday afternoon. I also managed to speak to the cable company and I was stunned. I told them I was moving and as finances would be a little tight initially, would it be possible perhaps to take away some of the services or reduce them. I could do without the phone line as I have enough airtime on my mobile to cover most of what I would ever use. The guy on the end of the phone said I would only reduce the bills by about £4 a month and as it costs approximately £30 now it wasnt a great amount. He then said, 'Hold on a mo, let me tap a few keys here and see what happens', followed by,' how about we reduce your payments to £17 for six months?'. I asked if that was for the same service I was receiving now and the answer came back as a firm yes.
How is that for customer service and what a great way of keeping your customers.
The thing is I have always been impressed with the customer services at Virgin and I would always recommend them to anyone.

So I am a happy bunny today. I feel better than I have in a while, and although I still have a long way to go before I get my life sorted out, I feel I am now getting somewhere.

Tiredness creeps up on me quickly and this moment in time is of no exception,
so until my next post... and may your day tomorrow, whichever day it happens to be, be a happy one.
