Investing in the back

After more careful weighing of the possibilities I decided to try out some Relax the Back chairs. My main concern was paying a handsome sum for a chair which then turned out not to be nice to my back. If the chair was good, then the price would be well worth it. Well it turns out that they have a 30 day no questions asked return policy for stock on hand. SOooo, I am now relaxing my back in my new chair

If I like it I can either keep this one or return it for a different color or fabric.

Well we finally got FIOS installed today. They say it takes 4-6 hours. Ours was done in 3. We got the phone-tv-internet bundle.

The first three photos show how I had to clean up the old garage before the installation so the installer wouldn’t die from spider webs and other assorted crud.

The next picture is the fiber to coax converter box and the 2 day UPS system that keeps the phone going even if we lose power. The other pictures show the 3 TVs with their settup boxes. The picture is great – we get all the local channels in HD including the ones for the RedSox and the Celtics. No Stow local access channel but that is coming soon they say. Finally they include wifi access point and router so the office LInkSys has been replaced for now.  So far it is working perfectly. Getting 19Mbs down and 5+ up.
