Backwoods Home
I ordered a subscription on August 3rd and said I would take a copy of the current issue. I got the July/August issue not too long after that. But since it's already September 7th, shouldn't I have received the newest issue by now? I sent them a message last Friday but haven't received an answer. Has everyone else received their copy and does anyone know how quickly they usually asnswer questions? Thanks.

Call me crazy, but I have a phobia about talking on the phone and rarely do so. In fact my phone isn't even on most of the time. I only have it for emergencies and to be able to get in touch with other family members when one of us is out of the house. I'm sure they will eventually contact me, or I will just write them again in a few days.

Give them an extra day or so if you just e-mailed on Friday. Never know who might have taken an extra day or so off to extend the holiday weekend.

I get you on the phone thing. I'd be happy if the darn thing had never been invented. I'll jump through all kinds of hoops to not have to use it.

I just sent another E-mail. I thought maybe the person I sent the first one to is off for some reason, so I sent it to a different person this time. I used to be a subscriber, so I know they are okay. I'm sure it will be straightened out soon. I'm just anxious to read the latest issue.

It's all taken care of.
