Another great day to do something interesting.

Today's project is to help my neighbor figure out how to fix her cell phone. Seems she loaned it to her brother, who loaned it to HIS grandkid, who took it on a camping trip, AND changed the phone to 'call forwarding' to HER phone and didn't tell anyone and returned it to my neighbor STILL in call forwarding. Took my neighbor 6 months to figure out why she wasn't getting any calls on it!

So now we will read the book, try to revert it to normal. She only uses it for emergencies when she is driving or long distance. It's one of those prepaid phone card ones. Yesterday I helped her load extra minutes. We do that every year. Old Nokia phone doesn't jibe with the instructions on the phone card. We ended up finally going to my computer and amazingly worked after 4 years of not being able to do it by computer and me having to call a REAL person to walk me through all the number inputs. Ugh. Yesterday, easy.

Off to figure out her phone. Wish me luck!

Magnificent Monday ya'll

Teensy bit cool in Alabama today. Had to fall back on my house shoes and housecoat. It will be in the 60's later, but the winds are "awhooping" as my g'mother would have said!

I woke up with a sore right leg today. I wonder if God is just trying to tell me to Not to exercise...nah...

I think I will default to my stationery bike which the doggies won't like but they will like it better than me hurting my leg or getting sick from the wind.

Right now Sky is earnestly reminding me I haven't fed him yet (his head is resting all it's weight on my left hand...not helpful in typing). As soon as I post, I'll go feed 'em.

I've had a busy morning. Conducted an archaeological dig and discovered that my desk does indeed have a top.

Also had a nice visit with middle son and daughter will most likely be calling soon. Laundry is spinning and dishes are drying. Gotta thank God again for automatic dishwashers and washers and dryers.

Also must finalize plans for dinner. Oh, and I've "visited" the library and checked out a book whilst sipping my coffee in the den.

Soot and I really enjoyed our play yesterday. Then we came home and watched the 1950's version with David Niven and Shirley McLaine. We both thought we'd seen it, but turned out, neither of us had. It is a long movie with an Intermission...been awhile since I've seen that screen come up. Anyway, it was fun to watch though I kept falling asleep in the 2nd half. So I fell asleep much earlier than normal for me, but then woke up at 4 a.m. EEEK! Absolutely refused to get up at that time though and eventually fell back asleep.

Off to feed the 4 legged ones.

Hi gang. I'm being quiet today. I'm off to work in a few. Hope you're all having a good day.

Nan, 40...eeek! What is howler bingo?

Phone snafu update. Tried calling Nokia. Got a YOUNG guy who had no idea what phone we were talking about. Spent 5 minutes looking up the 'manual' and then apologized on not finding it. I told him I HAD the manual and needed a code number to reset the phone. He was clueless.

I called TracFone. Punched a load of buttons and finally got a recording that told me I would have to wait at least 30 minutes for a representative. OR I could leave the phone number and they would call back, 'sometime'. Couldn't sit around waiting forever. Tried computer support for the phone. They had me punching more buttons and then finally, I get a message, "Error, try back later". Arrraaaghhhhh!

Finally sent neighbor home and kept her phone and book. READ entire book and found out that 2 pages before the one I was on, there was a short explanation of the 'code saving feature'. So I put 2 and 2 together with what neighbor told me about the gal who messed up the phone and since she was a computer programmer, thought maybe, just maybe she had SAVED the code on the phone itself.

Punched in the 'trigger' code numbers and got an expanded menu which gave me the option to CANCEL the call forwarding. Ohhhhhh thank goodness! Punched cancel, never did display that code the stupid gal entered so she could use it but told neighbor to not touch anything ever again and NOT to loan it out.

Problem solved for now. Not calling any help numbers for awhile. I'm exhausted.

Oh Sorta, what a day!

Good night Boomers.

Home from work and now just thinking about tomorrow's agenda. Work not until 5:00 tomorrow evening. I think I'll ask our Joe for BB pancakes in the morning. Night all.

Midgie

L4l howler BINGO is when you go to play BINGO and you win, then you howler out BINGO!! But alas I didn't get to howler tonight.

Wow Sorta what a day you have had. Glad the problem is finally resolved though.

Night Space sleep well.
