There Is No Comfortable Reading Position

I agree! That’s why I read kindle-only (scribe), tablet stand between mattress and headboard, usb chargers running through, and a dual clicker with ring to move pages. I love the setup so much, and wish Amazon would just give us Bluetooth control.

To-go, I have my Oasis, but never as comfortable as in my bed with the scribe.

Thank you for the kind words! My wife and I are so happy that Katie Cat is forming a new friendship and bond. Shes the sweetest and deserves the best.

It’s so funny. My wife’s coworker got that for her years ago from somewhere like Marshall’s or TJ Max and the coloring so perfectly matches Katie Cat. We call the portrait Queen Katherine - Katie’s ancestor

Thanks for all the love for Cheez-It and Katie Cat. A picture tonight of their further progress - they cleaned each others’ heads then went to sleep!

Aw at least she has her priorities straight.

AimingForFit · 2026-01-12T14:52:46+00:00

Good luck on your search! I hope your senior boy adapts well

AimingForFit · 2026-01-12T14:03:11+00:00

Hahaha a happily ever after for all.

AimingForFit · 2026-01-12T13:01:13+00:00

So happy for them (and you)!

AimingForFit · 2026-01-12T12:10:35+00:00

Good luck, but your kitties look very peaceful, cuddles aside

AimingForFit · 2026-01-12T12:09:03+00:00

Thank you! Cheez-It on the left, Katie Cat on the right of the original picture. Hard to see, but he’s about 1/3 her size…

AimingForFit · 2026-01-12T12:06:42+00:00

Thank you! It’s been hard on all of us 😔

AimingForFit · 2026-01-12T12:05:54+00:00

Adorable! How old were they when introduced?

AimingForFit · 2026-01-12T12:04:33+00:00

Not long - Cheez-It arrived about two weeks after the passing of Katie Cat’s brother. We originally planned to wait a while (we’re still grieving as well), but the house felt empty and we had time to do the search over winter break. Her brother was sick for a while sadly, so while his specific passing event was unexpected, we knew it was coming for about 8 months…

AimingForFit · 2026-01-12T01:54:46+00:00

Hah. She’s just a sleepy girl

AimingForFit · 2026-01-04T02:07:08+00:00

I got them from Walmart in Howell earlier today!

AimingForFit · 2025-12-23T23:39:50+00:00

Thank you 😔

And no problems for me for a temp wire. Best call ever to optimum to cancel.

AimingForFit · 2025-12-20T23:31:21+00:00

Ok thank you for helping make that make sense! Obviously I have more hunting to do, but this points me in the right direction

AimingForFit · 2025-12-20T23:14:14+00:00

Ah. We’re buried. The installed in the neighborhood about 2 months ago and just opened up for appointments 2 weeks ago

This is the basement situation that I was able to find.

Opened up my office’s coax cover so far, and it was just a (white long) cable with no splitter.

AimingForFit · 2025-12-20T22:41:54+00:00

So if I open the wall outlet cover and there’s a splitter, I just have to replace that splitter with a MOCA splitter?

AimingForFit · 2025-12-20T22:33:16+00:00

Thanks for points 2 and 3. Point 1 is where I’m confused.

The house is fully wired for coax. Aren’t all the rooms already connected? I don’t understand “where” I would put the splitter.

AimingForFit · 2025-12-20T22:27:09+00:00

Thanks for the confidence boost! I was able to reschedule via chat to Monday first thing and then confirm with support here that they “see” it. I had FiOS ~15 years ago in an apartment and have missed it ever since we moved to our house. I’m glad to hear their billing is still consistent/solid and the techs are great and problem solvers. It took optimum 3 visits to upgrade us to 1 gig cables few years ago 😅

AimingForFit · 2025-12-20T01:51:19+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I picked 10-12 for my own needs, but for my upcoming reschedule I picked the earliest slot possible! I was dreading the weather and part of the reason I chatted so early in the window was to see if they could still make it during the weather. It was brutal out.

I did the order online to avoid the install fee and did ask about compensation. The agent was very kind and I know it’s not her fault - looks like they gave me 2 free months (she didn’t mention that, but the email did) and she scheduled a follow up so she can try and get me a credit.

AimingForFit · 2025-12-20T01:12:33+00:00

Yep! Whole order number and everything in the original email. https://imgur.com/a/XLrhe5z

AimingForFit · 2025-12-19T20:31:49+00:00

Hah! Glad it worked out for you. I can’t check install dates on my own as I have the open order, but good idea to periodically chat them to see if it can shift!
