The Beast Gets A Smart Phone.....

The Beast bought himself a smart phone and it came today.  I was waiting for a package from my bff, Carol, and thought the box was from her...at first.  It's a nice looking phone but I don't think the Beast should have bought it.  At least not from the language that he was using when he didn't get it to do what he wanted.

Talk about swearing!  My goodness but he turned the air blue with his language.  It was just awful.  He said to me, *I can't believe that they would sell a phone like this to old people.  It's impossible.*  The booklet that came with it was thick and I really doubt that he read it all.  He did, finally, get the phone to work when he told it to call me (it has voice command), which he does like.  I think it just has too many features for him to *get*.  I don't know how much he paid for it but I'm sure he *shopped* it and thought he got a bargain.  We'll see how long he keeps his interest in it.  It's running off our wifi set-up and it uses our satellite limits.  If he keeps it on, it could actually use them all up and then we would have no internet.  I'll have to keep an eye on the usage for a while.

My day was calm because the Beast was gone most of the morning doing something with his church friends.   I made some cereal for my breakfast (oatmeal with maple and brown sugar) and had some chicken broth and toast for my lunch since I knew I was going to have a kind of heavy meal for dinner.  I had tamales with chili and cheese.  I know it sounds weird but it's so tasty with the shredded cheese on top.  Yum!  I ended up adding some Fritos to the chili after I ate the tamales.  I am still feeling stuffed....LOL.

I was going to go over to Cee's for a bit tomorrow but I think I will go over there on Wednesday instead.  I really want to be home  if my package comes from Carol and I am also concerned about another piece of mail (but won't mention it here).  I just don't want the Beast to open it if I can help it.

Love you all.  Be good.  Be kind whenever you can.  Spend time with those you love because tomorrow is not promised.  You can't hug a memory.  ***Hugs***
