Good luck today Chic, the easiest fix for you is a smartphone with 4g and internet access. It will keep you connected for $30.00 a month ( I have Verizon with the basic plan and 2 gigs, my total bill is $86.00 a month with my govt. employee discount, most people pay $100. or so). Costco has all the carriers and the cheapest prices on smartphones mostly....their techs set it up for you and you are back in business in about 10 mins. I use Verizon.
I hope things work out and you stay safe, go to the library to log on if you miss us. Maybe a few days without internet will show him how to appreciate what you are doing.
above all don't take his crap. he know the weak points and will pay you. sending you a hug and the slapomatic...and cookies.
