Another wonder of why

I always think I see everything and the nope something else rears its head

Notice the cables ran in to a switch cupboard not punched in to the panel. Why would you not take the time someone will plug in and nothing my question is where do these run. Joys of inheriting a networking mess.

This was the icing on the cake with this project
or so I thought.  Changed the IP on the switches that had no IP addresses for them other than the default.  Changed  it only to find out that the old Antique AS/400 went offline it had a ghost IP in it that was used for connecting. 

The AS/400 was last updated in 1994 it has version 8 current OS is 28.1,  I am waiting for it to die so they will update the Production management at 500.

Fun at the Burford fair

On Sunday we went to the Burford fair.
Mattis and his cousing Tristan had a blast.

Mattis loves the rides he wanted to go on the Go-Cator a small roller coaster and was upset because he was to small.

He loves rides like daddy

Mattis Video of Pictures for Birthday and a look back at 2 years


Here is a little collection of pictures I have put together for Mattis's 2nd Birthday


It is hard to believe the little guy is turning 2.  I have no idea where the time has gone.

When I looked back through the pictures it is amazing what I forgot from the past 2 years.

He is accomplished so much in the past 2 years and has done so much.
He now has his own personality that is for sure and he loves to be silly.
He loves Cars, Star Wars, Mickey Mouse and Toy Story  yes he is my son that is for sure.

He also loves to watch Bambi as well.

He discoverd my Star Wars stuff in the basement when I brought it to the new place from being stored at my Mums for several years.  Eevery time he is downstairs with me he needs to go get to guys to take upstairs to play with.  He now has about 20 figures upstairs and several ships. 

A few nights ago I put in the original Star Wars he was glued to the TV watching it contently.  When Darth Vader enters the blockade runner he turned to me and said "Darth".  The funny thing is i didn't tell him who it was.  Then everytime he saw him for the 1/2 hour we watched he would say "Darth".

I would have let him  watch the rest but it was bedtime.

Over the past 2 years Mattis has been to Quebec City numerous times.
He has been skating sort of he was in the sled
Snowshoeing the same
Swimming, Boat Rides, To our Nations Capital. 
He has been camping twice.
These are just a few of his many andventures.

Bell and there incompetence

Had no cell service today. Well sort of text and Data worked but not voice.

I had my cell phones and home phone under a Bell one account. Dropped home phone over a year ago do to terrible lines where we were living when it rained we had no phone or internet. Bell said there is nothing they could do since the lines weren't slated to be replaced. So I switched everything to Rogers but my cell phones.

I guess at somepoint over the summer they decided that I no longer needed a one bill and put my cell phones on a new account number. When I phoned today I was informed that I hadn't paid them in over 2 months. They can see the money in the One Bill account but can't access it. Because one bill is a different company. The put in a request for a cheque from One Bill. I have got them to re-activate my phone and told them when I get the cheque from One Bill they will have the rest of what is owed. It is my screw up I was told not there's.

I would like to know how they can change your account number and fail to tell you, and it is your fault as you are supposed to know. They also told me there is nothing they can do. I wonder if this could be construde as a breach of contract and I can switch to Rogers. They likely have some loop-hole to protect themselves in some weird way
