the new phone

Is officially boxed up and ready to send back.

I ordered another motorola V9, which is what I have been using for about a year.

I am sending the other one back because contrary to what two AT&T people at "611" told me, you cannot connect via wifi if you don't have a data package. I am not paying another thirty bucks a month for that, since I don't need it in the least. I am home all day, every day, if I need internet access, I can go in the living room! The qwerty keyboard was not for me, and the buttons were too small in my opinion. It's pretty frustrating to get customer service reps that don't know their products. I know they are new phones, but still.... When Mike sold phones for 12 years, I can't tell you how many times he had to tell the CS people what was wrong, and to correct them. I am glad he is out of that industry. It kept him too stressed out.

So anyway, I am getting another one just like my old one!

And, we woke up this morning to rain and lightning, which will make playing ball all day really hard! Don't know what the day will bring, but it isn't looking too good.
