susandennisI forget the routine of getting a new phone. The highs and lows and battery life. You see all the cool new stuff and it's so cool. And then you find a couple of things that aren't like they were in a very not good way and you can't find the settings to fix them. And then, after several hours you see that your battery is draining like a die with craters and then you remember that you've had the thing on and been actively using it for several hours.
Been through all of that today.
FedEx brought it about 11. And I've been playing with it non-stop for 4 hours! Porting an old Pixel to a new one takes about 5 minutes these days. And an amazing amount of info comes with the transfer but you still have to log on to every single damn thing and find passwords and settings that you haven't used since the last transfer.
One of my banks requires my drivers license which is down in the car. But most everything else is set up and operational. And my el chepo case is actually perfect. It easily holds a credit card and a $20 bill and really that's all I need. It's slim and grippy.
It is a big 'un. But I don't mind and I appreciate the extra screenage plus it feels good in my hand. And it is way easier to see stuff on it.
So no buyers remorse here.
I also did lots o' laundry today. Most of it is done, folded and put away but there is still a little waiting on the bed to get finished.
Biggie has not left this chair all day long. Not once. He sits in my lap. He sits next to me. He sits on my legs. But he does not get out of the chair.
The new phone has a camera on steroids. Among other things, it zoooooooooms. It's probably 25 feet from my chair to the railing this bird is sitting on.
Biggie keeps an eye on him.
And the selfie cam zooms, too.
