I Forgot I Had A Blog

Not only have I not been writing (which you already know) I haven't been reading blogs either. I have missed both. Occasionally I'll be thinking about something and make a mental note that I should blog about that. Mental notes are a scam. It's SO hard to remember things unless I write them down (it's not just cause I'm getting older either). So, I know there were things I was going to tell you...but I can't remember them.


So, hopefully I'm back (to reading and writing) and just to ease back in I think I will share with you a few reasons why I LOVE my new phone:

  • Ease with gift registries: Target's gift registry computers were down recently (all 3 of them) and I needed to pick up a gift. I already knew what I wanted to buy but I didn't want to do it without the registry because I didn't want someone else to think that was still available. I opened the registry on my phone and when I went through checkout they scanned the bar code- on my phone.
  • Navigation App: No need for GPS. Type it in or say it out loud. Navigation feature will get you there.
  • Access to personal email. Once again shopping, needed a gift for a party, knew there were some details in my email. Look it up, buy the gift, good to go.
  • Games: Tetris, Zilch and now Angry Birds. Sucks the battery life quickly but they are a great stress reliever.

I think there are more reasons to tell you but I made a mental note about them and now they are gone.
