Sunday 9/10  Church, football, food and good conversation with my son, brother & niece. Important meeting at church at the end of the day. 

Monday 9/11  A quiet day at home.  My phone went completely dead.  I am embarrassed at how I depend on that darned thing.  I really was more concerned about  not having something in the event of an emergency.  I am grateful I had my Chromebook to contact the people I needed to.  

Tuesday 9/12  Quiet but my son came out with my brother’s extra phone for me to use in case of emergency.  Just for 911 but that was fine.  I don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.  Grateful he was able to get me an extra phone.

Wednesday 9/13  I went and bought a new phone, got a great deal and was up and running again.  Bible study to end the day and it was wonderful as always.
