Good News - and Then My Problems Began.

 


The Good News is that when I went to Sarasota's Apple Store today, thinking that I needed to buy a new i-Phone, the staff member would do no such thing.  She pointed out that my problem is that my i-Cloud storage plan was in dire need of updating.

Later in the day the hard stuff began.  I called Apple support.  Kudos to Apple who gave me choices re waiting on line music!  I chose Classical.

Then I went down the rabbit hole.  Apple's First Responder was great.  She put me in touch with an Expert.  

Expert as she was,  there was a problem.  

Nothing to do with Apple.   Everything to do with me.   Try as I might I could not correctly enter my user name.  I am not dumb, but my eyes are dim and the screen is small.

First things first.

My eye sight is more precious than my cyberspace life.  When the cataracts have been blasted out of my eyes (dates not yet set) I'll be ready and prepared to "talk" with Apple.


I (and you) can be cool  about this.  After all we did well enough long  before the days of the internet and  mobile 'phones.

Not the best of days HELP! A mistake and a fall.

  I arrived in time for my 8:50 appointment with my Dermatologist.   The Receptionist told me that I did not have an appointment.  She checked the records and told me that my appointment is for Tuesday. I knew that.  Then the light dawned.  Up until that moment I had thought that it was Tuesday, not Monday. You'd think that calendars had not been invented! It got worse. I took Cooper for an early pee walk this afternoon.  He lifted his leg to cue. Then he took a strong and mad dash towards a Squirrel.  I fell down.  And great was my fall. Lots of scrapes.  No bones broken. Pictures not in order. Excuse duplicates. No sympathy please - I was foolish. Fortunately, I had an arm bandage to sop up the blood. It looks worse than it is. BUT  1.  I was foolish in two ways. First, I had taken Cooper on a short leash.  I'd have had more control with the double handled long leash. 2. When he made his mad dash, I should have dropped ...
