Miss Edna's Place

 August 20, 2020

Good morning.  Tis sunny and comfy with temps rising to the upper seventies, maybe eighty, today.  Another gorgeous day.  

Well, yesterday turned out to be not quite the way I wanted, but still nice.  Deanne came by and we went to the Verizon store to buy me a new phone.  Tuesday I told the man on the phone that I would be in on Wednesday morning to buy the Samsung Galaxy S10.  He said that he had it in stock.  

Before entering the store, on went the gloves and mask - I don't plan on taking anything home with me that I didn't come to buy.  I also had a container of wipes in my tote.  I was so excited.  I just couldn't wait to get my new phone.  Problem was that after my phone call Tuesday, the Verizon store salesman showed up at the store and walked off with whatever S10's they had in stock.  

The other man at the store tried to offer me a different model.  I said no so they scurried to call other Verizon stores to see if they could find another phone for me.  They found one in Connecticut and asked that it be sent out immediately.  I will be able to get it either late today or sometime on Saturday.

I tried to buy a new cover for the phone they were also out of stock.  It's just not my day to have this new phone.  The salesman promised to bring the phone by my house either later today or Saturday, and he would transfer everything from my current phone over to the new phone. When I got home yesterday, I went online to Amazon and ordered a new cover for my new phone.  That should be here tomorrow.  

There was a bright note though, a new crochet pattern that I had ordered a while ago finally arrived in my mail.  I think I'd like to try making this.  Not now, first I have to finish all my Christmas projects.  This one is made with cotton yarn.  Have a lookee.  Isn't this pretty?  The pattern (Bloom Cocoon) can be found at Annie'sCraftStore.com..  (It can also be made with regular yarns.)

The mail just came and there's another political advertisement from the Democrats.  Has anyone received any of these ads from the Republican party?  I don't remember seeing any in my mail.  I hope this is nothing to be concerned about.  I just think it's strange.  There are two parties, but I'm only seeing ads from one party being delivered.  Hmmmm.

I'm off now to send a text to Beth to see how she is doing.  Then I'll call my cousin.  After that, I'm sure that Pogo and I can find some good mischief to get into.  So, till tomorrow, Y'all stay safe and have a fantabulous day.  

Hugs, Edna B.
