Cookin' Up Creations

Hello everyone!

DH hit me this morning with how would I like a new phone for Christmas? just a couple of days ago we decided not to get us gifts for Christmas since we get what we want all the time. When we were in Disneyland I was trying to film a little bit of the parade and my phone storage wouldn't allow me to video. Back at the hotel we added more storage and it still gives me grief. I can't understand why we are paying for 2 g and it tells me the storage is full. So we tried taking out some applications and other things. Then he researched it and the new phones have so much more. I just hate getting a new phone because they cost so much much. Our kids claim that you get rebates and they never have to pay. DH would rather go to the Apple Store instead of our streaming service so that eliminates them not letting us but=y it out because they always add it into your monthly phone bill so it goes higher. Anyhoo looks like we are phone shopping today as soon as it opens. Tonight we have tickets to Frozen the musical. Excited to see it.
Happy Tuesday!!

Tamara, good luck with your phone shopping. I hate having to get a new phone!

I was up early today and decided to get some cleaning done that I never got to yesterday. Maybe some scrappy time later on...still need more Christmas cards.
Dh got his test results yesterday and everything looks good again! Let's hope it stays that way!

Tamara: good luck phone shopping. I went last week to try to upgrade my phone from Verizon and they wanted me to pay more than I already did and get for "FREE" a new phone. Nope. So, I contacted Spectrum and set up a plan with them. Phone was reasonable and free service for 1 year and when it starts cheaper than Verizon. The phone arrived yesterday and after speaking with 4 different consultants: 2 from Verizon and 2 from Spectrum I got it all transferred over. YEAH!! lots more storage. Now I just need to get a new case and face protector for it.

Tracy: yeah for good report for hubby from the doctor.

I hope you all have a great day.
I went to mass this morning and then to get my sewing machine from the Senior Center. I had coffee with my aunts and visited a bit while I was there. They are putting in some new windows and fixing the walls so the area where we usually sew is one big pile of stuff, so no sewing there today. I'll sew at home. I never got the apron made yesterday. I also have some other things I want to sew. I also plan to scrap

Phillis, DH reminded me that at the Verizon store it's like you are buying a car. Obnoxious and confusing. That's why we went directly to the app store. They gave me a credit of $130 for trading in my old phone. And they let us pay cash for the whole thing. So it won't up our phone bill. Verizon won't let you buy out because they work it into your monthly payment to keep you locked into their contract. We are thinking of switching to T-mobile soon anyway,

So happy your hubby got good results,

It was a rainy stay at home day for me. Maybelline is slowly recovering. She is eating, drinking and walking some. She developed a UTI over the weekend. The vet prescribed antibiotics, so now she’s on Prednisone and Doxycycline.
