And In Today's News

It looks as if I will need to invest in a MajicJack (sic) because I have to do something about all the phone calls I need to make right now. There are just way too many calls for my tracphone to handle and which I never intended for much more than a basic line of communication. Probably 95% of my calls are one minute or less, and merely 'occasional' ones, which makes tracphone perfect for me. It's the daily ones to older family members that are wrecking it. They usually pick up about 20 secs. into the call and I simply cannot say hello and goodbye fast enough to hang up before it goes into the second minute. Which is why I love being online; sure it's a monthly bill but I can be online indefinitely, w/o any restrictions, so to speak.

I went to Hastings today to see my auntie and read all of the Christmas letters she received to her and my uncle. How exciting, right? Anyway, it should save me an eon or two from Purgatory, though I am hoping the furkids will put in a good word for me as well.

My Cousin Donna(tm) called most of New Year's Eve/Day -- she was having a great time celebrating. I am always glad to hear from her because it means she is still around. If only she would learn to use a computer though! It would be so much easier on me *and* my poor phone.

Ok, I am off to go and sleep, for I am way too tired to stay up any longer.

Yes, I too am tormented to death by my phone bill because of people who simply stay away from the computer.

*hugs* and a very good night to you

Well, in fairness I don't really mind about some older family members relying on phone and letters because most of them are so *very* old and with assorted health problems, it's just not very do-able to go online.

My Cousin Donna, however, *is* my age and should be able to get the basics of being online easily enough. I know she would love it once she learns how.

And yes, I did have a good sleep. :)
