It seemed like a long week. Still cleaning up in the yard, the county will start picking up storm debris on Monday if it is curbside. So Mac is out there shifting it around and making sure no branch is too long.I've been in the pool twice, we're talking cold here, in order to get stuff up out of the bottom. I'm hoping we can vacuum the rest of it up.
Today I had to get my B-12 shot and I needed it. Definitely low energy.
Stopped by the Dollar store to stock up on paper plates, cups and plastic silverware so we won't have to worry about doing dishes the next time we don't have water.
I ordered a new I-Phone yesterday, not the 8 that just came out---my God, $1,000 for a phone, but last year's model at a greatly reduced price. It's supposed to be here today.
Also dealing with the Equifax hack. By checking with them I found that yes, our info may have been compromised. So I had our credit frozen. What a pain. Really like the way the directors of the company dumped their stock before announcing the breach.
Now that Irma is gone we're watching Typhoon Talim that will be moving through our daughter's area of Japan. To say nothing of the idiot in North Korea firing missiles over Japan.
Then this morning the IED on the London Underground. It's a scary word we live in.
I guess all we can do is hope for the best and keep on keeping on.
There's so much scary stuff happening in the world at the moment, you've got to wonder where it's all going to end.
ReplyDeleteYou do seem yo be having an awful time at the moment. Roll on some decent weather for everyone and no terrorism.
ReplyDeleteYou are absolutely right with that last paragraph.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly is a scary world we are living in, like you we are wondering when it will all end.
ReplyDeleteThe bad things are having overlap overload. It is scary.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you it has been a super long week. I thought about your daughter and the typhoon. I hope it just fizzles away.
ReplyDeleteYou must be worried about your daughter in Japan. It's a crazy world right now.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what to say, Jan. It's all out of control. Best wishes for your daughter, too.
ReplyDeleteyeh, $1000 for a phone? I know that's extremely crazy..
ReplyDeleteSo many terrible things happening, I hope your daughter is safe and well and wouldn't it be wonderful if everything could just settle down for a while xx
ReplyDeleteSeems like everyone is dodging disaster at this time. Glad you're getting everything back in order.
ReplyDeleteHope daughter is ok, Son has lived through many typhoons. He has a weather storm tracker on his phone. Hope she stays safe and warm.
ReplyDeletecheers, parsnip
Have fun with your new phone! I cannot even imagine spending $1000 on a phone. I have a 4-year-old Android phone that I paid about $200 for. Good enough for me! I'm glad things are getting back to order there. Hope your daughter will be safe too.
ReplyDeleteYes, we do live in scary times. It a shame phones have to be so dang expensive. But I wouldn't want to go back to the rotary. HaHa.
ReplyDeleteAmazing how expensive phones are and cell phone service, yet a "necessary" evil. My last phone upgrade was back in 2012. I'm planning to keep this one as long as I can, though honestly I don't do a lot on it.
ReplyDeleteLots of things indeed going on in our world and planet. Its hard to grasp them all; don't have time to recover from one before another one is coming on, kind of like labor pains.

Yes, we're having our share of trouble, the latest being the so-called bomb on the tube. I get scared and am almost thankful I don't get out much these days.
ReplyDeleteWhat a good idea to stock paper plates etc as a just-in-case.
That sure is scary with those missiles being fired over Japan. You just wonder where it is all going to end...and the bomb on the tube in London is horrific! Some people are just sick...and crazy.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a good weekend and feel better once your shot kicks in. xo Diana
It has been a crazy time lately, hasn't it? I do hope your daughter stays safe.

Such dreadfultimes what with one thing and another, keep on keeping on is the snswer as there isn't much we can do to change anything. Hope your daughter will be safe:)
ReplyDeleteI have a pit in my stomach about all the bad news happening. I want a bunch of Equifax people to go to JAIL for this. From what I understand, they had lobbyists in Washington on the day they got hacked, lobbying for less regulation...
ReplyDeleteI'm going to ignore all the weather that's going on in the Atlantic right now. Sticking my head in the sand! I can only worry about so much, and this just won't fit right now.
And as far as those new and really expensive phones are concerned, I've always believed that it's not like the older ones all of a sudden don't work or work less well as soon as a new one comes out. It's not like day-old bread, yanno?
So much to be anxious over. Each of us must have loved ones that we worry about. For you especially it's your daughter. Our grandson works in London. Every time there's an incident we hope he's safe knowing that he's travelling around on the transport network there. I suppose we have to keep carrying on not letting these worries get us down.
ReplyDeleteMy husband got an i phone 7 too, the people at the AT and T Store set it all up, I was thankfull for that. We have a few glitches, it makes a noise when something happens but not sure what that is yet. I thought we did well for old folks:)
ReplyDeleteI love your artwork and follow you pots this very minute!

You are so right!
ReplyDeleteWe must all keep on keeping on.
All the best Jan
It certainly is a scary world we are living in, like you we are wondering when it will all end.
