Not much news here

Went this morning and had my mammogram, I cannot believe how long it has been and both my mother and grandmother had breast cancer. I should be in line waiting the first minute I am due.

The Mormons got new windows, this refurbishing of the fire house is taking a long time.

I got a new lead on a job and tracked most of it down, leaving messages for people to figure out how to apply. Well, there was this guy I used to work with-he was the customer-and getting him to stop talking either in person or on the phone was nearly impossible. He returned my call at 9 PM and I was on the phone with him until 10:30. He is the one taking my resume in so I have a chance with this one. And it is a much shorter drive.

My mother's husband is having heart surgery today, yesterday he got the balloon put in. Praying for a good outcome here. Speaking of my mother:

Funny of the day:

My mother has been sending pictures of the flowers I sent to the hospital and I have not been getting them. Checked everywhere and yesterday it came to me. Yep, she was sending them to my land line.

Well, I feel stupid

I need a new phone.  New cell phone and new home phone. So, I have been investigating phones and I was appalled at how expensive these items have become. When I decided the entire country was crazy  to spend this kinda money for cell phone service I asked Big Daddy how much I was paying for my 5 year old cheap ass   bottom of the line flip phone and his piece of crap LG phone. Well, it is more than anyone else is paying for the expensive data plans that everyone else has. WTF.

So now I need to investigate cell phones and figure out a plan. I would like a phone that takes pictures and can show maps when I am lost, that is about it. Blue tooth would be nice.

For the home phone I need to check out what the problem is with the current phone. We need a home phone or land line as Grosse Pointe is cheap and will not let companies put up cell towers, so I get very poor to no service at home.  Also the alarm system requires a land line and I am not in the mood to figure out how to change that requirement.  We have to always have the cell phones on the charger as the constant searching for a tower drains the battery, that and the switching between the US and Canada towers. What a mess.

I was thinking about taking over BD's iPhone if the speaker could be repaired but I guess most companies don't like that shit, and I will not buy another iPhone, not paying for Steve Jobs vision at a high cost, heard to many bad things about Apple. Yea everyone does the same but only Apple charges extreme prices for extreme profits.
