Saturday, May 7, 2022 – Odd Jobs Today and A Little Rain

Hi Darlin’,
A good night sleep, my usual morning routine, then I settled down to do a few odd jobs that needed doing. I finished the job I started the other day, by using that canned expansion foam that hardens around the drain under the shower, hopefully that will finally be the last place for bugs to get in that I’ve managed to plug up. I put all of that back together again. I fixed a paddle fan, I had notice one seemed to be running not quite smoothly, and discovered that one of the screws that connects it to the blade was gone, so I jury-rigged it with a drywall screw anchor since I didn’t have an actual screw the right size and it worked just fine. I picked up a few palm fronds, did my rounds a couple of time since a few new campers came in, and then, I decided I had to tackle my phone problem once and for all. I’ve been getting all kinds of errors, and it’s so packed with stuff that my memory is so limited that nothing is working properly. I was convinced I had to reboot it all the way back to a factory reset, but wanted to make sure everything was saved beforehand, so I called Verizon and the guy walked me through what was supposed to happen. Unfortunately, I was under the mistaken impression that since everything was supposedly backed up, everything would come back once it was rebooted. Boy, was I misled on THAT one! It didn’t seem to keep ANY of my settings, so I ended up spending a good part of the day trying to get my phone back to where it was, though hopefully with all of the problems solved. My texts weren’t working right, I was getting notifications but then I couldn’t get the rest of it to open, Whenever I turned the phone on I was getting several errors, and lately, it’s weirdly been giving me the wrong date and time! I’ve looked at it a bunch of times and it’s telling me that it’s August of 2002! Crazy! Anyway, so far it seems to be working better, but I’m still adding my lost apps, so I don’t know how much room I’ll have in the end, though I really don’t have THAT many apps, not compared to a lot of people I know! Fingers crossed I get it all back in the end. Meanwhile, other than that, I had a relatively relaxing day and evening, though I watched a very violent “chick flick,” not my favorite. I don’t really get why Hollywood thinks that true feminine equality means that women behave just as poorly and stupidly and violently as men, cursing and screwing and bloodletting as crudely as you can imagine. What can I say, I liked it better when movies showed the better side of us, not the worst possible side of us. But I digress! Good night, sweetheart! Love you!
