I can use my cell, but now I have to wait for .Spectrum to come on Tues, and it is all my fault. The extremely helpful woman told me it happens all of the time, but I doubt it. Sigh.☹️
@QVCkitty1 At least it was not an electric line.....or you would not be here to tell us about it 🙂

This is one of those memorable moments. We've all had them.
You are right of course,but it is a sinking feeling.

I think we're all laughing here at your story --- or at least trying to stifle a laugh.....
I'm sure you will join us, maybe not right now, but at some point! :-D

I'm starting to see the humor in it now, you all are cheering me up, that's why I come here. 😁

we've all done stupid things...sooner or later it becomes a fun story to laugh about over a cup of coffee, glass of wine or one of those quiet moments where we smirk to ourselves - "can't believe I did that!"
My latest moment:
A few weeks ago I was making my signature crumb cake - takes 6 whole eggs. I cracked them & put them in a measuring cup...
Then I went oh I need that measuring cup to measure out the oil -- I dumped the eggs down the sink without thinking!!!!🙄🙃

After it's repaired, paint it a bright color so it doesn't blend in with the vines.

Good tip.

@QVCkitty1 Everytime I use the hedge clippers, I cut the extension cord attached to it. I am lucky that I have never electrocuted myself. I have done this a few times a year for several years now.
My DH always fixes it for me, but the cord is smaller by about 10 feet now.
At least you have only cut your phone line one time.
