I finally got around to looking at the July calendar. July 4 falls on the first Saturday this year. Independence Day +250 years. I'm sure the neighborhood noise makers are stocking up on pyrotechnics. I have a feeling of something bad happening on that day.
My new phone is supposed to arrive Friday. The one I have been using refused to boot up last week. I finally got it going, but it is already being held together with tape and super glue. I have had it for exactly three years. This will be my fourth phone in 10 years. The manufacturers keep packing features on each generation of phones that I don't need. Or use.
Same thing with watches. I don't need blue tooth on a watch. I don't particularly need alarms or timers. I have yet to use either one although my CASIO watches always do all that stuff. I need day, date, a light, accurate time, and a band that is halfway comfortable. Same deal with a smart phone. I like being able to access the internet for phone numbers, etc. I send some texts and call now and then. That's about it. We will see what the new one does that I don't need.
Best wishes. G
