What are you doing right now?

Coated the old hollow log - gets Thompson’s once a year -
So, had a new boat in 2006 and pulling up to a marsh area we spotted the only two Whooping Cranes I have seen … noticed the old log and pulled it into the boat - sentimental I guess … 🧐

Sitting at home ignoring a Thai TV series because my wife person won't go out for dinner in the rain. Like, is she the Wicked Witch of the West? No, more like Mary Poppins without the umbrella.

Why am I telling you this ??? 😂
I once found a 6 week old stray German Shepherd pup and I named her Mary Puppins.
I had her for 15 years ..
 
Still waiting on my phone to backup. Glad we have unlimited data lol. I never thought it would take more than 6 hours to do. Hasn’t backed up since February since I’m too cheap to pay for extra storage but I ended up having too. I had to get iCloud storage too bought 2TB worth. Should have waited till I went to sleep even though I only sleep like 5-6 hours at the most so i would still be waiting lol. I went with my friends dad and my friend to go to Verizon earlier he got the Pro Max in Black. Good choice. I was surprised they had them in stock. Paid for it outright like I did. My friend begged for one but he is still in a contract for 1.5 years lol. Also my coworker at work called me to ask how to set it up. It’s his first smartphone he just ended up going to his phone company and they got everything set up from his flip phone to the iPhone. He got the regular iPhone though in black. He is almost 80 years old so not the easiest to help and I have no idea how to convert everything over from a flip phone lol. He said I inspired him to switch and now he can FaceTime his grandkids in the Philippines.

If your phone is a 128GB phone the most you could need to back up is 128GB so why would you need 2TB of storage? Seems to be taking far too long for a 128GB backup too.

It’s probably because I’m not on wifi honestly. 2TB because I want to start regularly backing it up and will be getting more Apple stuff in the near future like a MacBook so I want to make sure I have enough plus trying to talk parents into iPhones so they might need some too. The new phone is 256. You could purchase like a few extra GB or 1 or 2 TB or more I think it was. Just went for the middle priced one it’s $2.99 per month so now I just get charged $2.99 per month. I don’t know anything about this stuff or even what a terra-byte is lol.

Oh yeah Jimmy. About to be another $1k in a couple months for a laptop. Won’t ever buy anything that’s not Apple again. Great products even though I don’t like the company as a company. Have to decide to get a MacBook Air or MacBook Pro now lol. My current laptop is a Lenovo G15 from 2015 that’s no longer supported so I need a new one and one that isn’t slow as molasses lol.

There's probably no point because you're completely brainwashed to Tim Cook but before you go buy an Apple computer do some research and at least pretend and try to have an open mind. There is a lot to changing over to Apple. You'll have to replace a LOT of software etc. whereas if you bought a new, and definitely much less expensive for an equally powerful and capable Dell or HP etc. you'd just port everything over and be done. And newsflash, Apple is good stuff but it isn't the only stuff and their ****e stinks like everyone else's. BTDT and learned my lesson there as well. Other people have already made all the mistakes you are hell bent to dive into but I guess listening and learning from their mistakes just isn't as good as losing PILES of money by doing them all yourself.

We have had previous bad luck with Dell and HP. But still might consider though it isn’t likely. Don’t get me wrong I don’t like the CEO of Apple or the company but I do think their products are superior. Maybe it’s just because I’m young and want to be like everyone else in my generation. I’d rather do without a laptop than have something non Apple. There is nothing on my laptop to transfer over. At least Apple would be compatible with my phone. One thing that would sell me on another brand is if it still has a CD player as I watch DVD on my laptop. I would have to buy an external one for an Apple laptop unless I go back to 2012 used. Honestly I can probably get by with an Air model for my use instead of the Pro. But undecided yet.

I used those two names just for place holders. Use any you choose. It won't affect all the added nuisance and expense of converting. Kind of like all the big money spent converting from one model phone to another with all the extras that go with it. And try to mature out of caring what anyone else does sooner rather than later. You don't need to buy every super expensive thing under the sun just because someone else does. The goal of money is NOT to spend every dollar as quickly as you possibly can.
 
Out walking the dog now. Nice and breezy. Really in the mood for baseball right now but no games on this late on Sunday, watched a few earlier. Can’t wait for the World Series even though that’s when the season ends. It’s a shame I’m seeing football on tv already lol. Who in the heck would want to watch that, but I guess you could say the same about any sport lol.
